Ohh, I understand the wire dimentions. it was just a mis print on my behalf.
OK the wires on the motor which came with the system is 12AUG, the wires to the battery are 16AUG . I know Guage. So what you guys are telling me is I should switch out the battery wires to 12 guage? even though that is what was in the box for the battery.

At least 12GA specially on the battery side and the bridge for your series connection.

Okie dokie, well when the hobby shop opens Monday i'll get that 12 guage for the battery stuff.

Make sure they're open first! It is Memorial Day after all.

OK, now with the bigger wires.

You resoldered larger wires? That looks pretty beefy, what is it, 10AWG? Maybe 11AWG?

Read the thread rawfuls...

everything is spelled out.

Good point.
I haven't read the thread in awhile, saw a new post, and just posted.

yeah I went 12aug like the motor wires like everyone suggested and then I called Ty at Tekin to take a look at it make sure it was good. Everything is thumbs up and I took it for a test drive. POWER! its 14 lbs, but much better than that Novak 6.5 I had in it. I might go with a larger pinion as I have a 14t in there now and this is the 2250 system. Its got a 69t spur gear so what do you think? here are the internal gears.

Now THAT is what a transmission should look like, Looks to me like it should handle anything you can throw at it. If your temps are within reason- you can gear up

But no oil/grease?
Or is grease/oil not needed with metal/metal/metal trannys?

Well orginally those gears were mostly plastic. I asked RC4WD to make them into steel gears for me which they now sell on thier website. The pics are what they looked like when I got them back. I use AE stealth grease on all the gears so no worries of hot steel gears, binding, anything like that and the cover keeps all the bad stuff out. You barely hear them with all the grease in them. but everything is solid and powerful and cool.

Believe me I built this truck 10 times better than its original design. With the Novak 6.5 I was taking nitro's at the track. i inteded on the RX8 To take up the slack. i just ordered an RRP.8 mod 16t and 18t which should do nicely. Which of couse I'll check the temps and gears while testing it till I get what is acceptable and not harmfull to the truck as a whole.

I didn't see it posted anywheres, but what vehicle is that and weighs 14lb and only 2wd??

MRC thunderking. I call it the Evolution because its an Evolution in a build. I might be worng. It was 14lbs with the Novak system and batteries in it. Maybe more like 11lbs. still pretty heavy but hey its got alot of metal on it.

Well, I am starting a thread for this. MRC Thunder king Evolution II
