Can I change the stock Spur and Pinion? - 07.19.2006, 04:07 PM

Is it possible to get higher top speed than stock if I change the stock spur and the stock pinion, leaving everything else (motor wise) the same?

Like if I go with the 54 tooth spur and a larger pinion? Whats the relative limit before things start heating up real bad?

Edit: I am talking about the emaxx btw. Forgot to mention b4.

I tried going up on my emaxx. I got the motors hotter with really no speed increase. Try more cells unless you running 14 now.


Peace!

Well just do it and report back. :D
Then you can put a brushless on order while doing it.

To be honest, thats not really smart....That could also ruin the ESC. The motors have no value, but the ESC can sell on Ebay for $50+.

If you are talking about the titans and evx, i run a 64 tooth spur with stock pinions and got about 4mph out of it, running 12 cells


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
