Hello guys,
I am new to the site and new to the RC Car/truck world. I have flown planes for over 6 yrs and wanted to venture into the rc car world a little on windy days. I have zero knowledge when it comes to nitro trucks. I picked me up a XL 5.9 RTR and only had for a month. I got passed the tuning which my previous knowledge with glow really helped with that!! Now I am wanting to do a little gearing on the truck but I am a little confused on ordering. My questions are
How do I know what spur gear will work?
Are the spur gears for certain trucks or motors?
Is there anything I should look for beside the actual tooth count ie....certain shaft sizes?
I have done a lot of research but cant really find these things. I am looking for a 48/16 setup which seems to work pretty good and not very aggressive. When I search the tooth and find a gear it list specific to .21 size trucks and it throws me off. Any help will be greatly appreciated for a new guy to the hobbie!!!!!
