The AXI 4130/20 weighs 14.4 ounces. The 4120/14 weighs 10.9 ounces.

It is tricky sorting out what works and what doesn't.

I can't wait for the new E maxx to come out. I have that outrunner setup pretty much perfected all the way to the point of blowing the transmission. The new Tranny is 2 1/2 times tougher? We'll see about that.

The Quark does well with the E maxx outrunner setup, but I think the cogging in this setup has to do with what Brian said. There isn't enough EMF back pulses at low rpm because of the high gearing.

At 2.85:1 gearing, the truck moves about 6.5 inches for each rotation of the motor. Wow! I just did the math on that. That's quite a load actually.

At 4.3:1, this drops to a little over 4 inches. Big Difference. Hmmmmm.......

There's definately a sweet spot to this stuff. I could change the tire size, but I really don't want to do that. It's a Monster Truck! LOL

I'm not giving up on this, but where can I get some of the Hybrid Truggy diffs? Even just the cases, I'll come up with some gears.
