if it's higher, it sits more to the side with the same pinion/spur. perhaps it allows more clearance in the rear for larger motors too. I don't exactly know what to expect, since i am still waiting for mine to arrive.

a 52T spur will push the motor 2.5mm farther over to the side and get you an addional 2.5mm of battery space. Also with the bigger spur you can go another tooth or 2 bigger on the pinion to get the same overall gear ratio (or close to it) getiing another1mm or so in battery space. It might not sound like much, but that extra 3-3.5mm will allow me to fit my TrueRC 8000mah 5s pack right down in there for a nice tight fit. It firs now, but its litterealy touching the side of the motor and I'm afraind the heat from the motor may have an ill effect on the battery if its touching. The 3mm is just a little breathing room for this big lunkewr of a pack. The 5000mah Enerland based packs drop right in and fit like a glove with no worries at all.
