    Typhon V3 16t pinion with motor fan

    So a friend of mine gave me a motor fan, so i thought: now i can run my 16t pinion with 6S without the motor getting too hot. Is the only problem with running a bigger pinion the temperature? Or also resistance and-or other forces on the motor? And what temp is the maximum to reach for a...

    Typhon Pinion wheel

    I was looking at the pinion wheel and found it like this. It seems to have a little offset. Is this normal? And if it is, is it better in terms of efficiency and lifespan?

    Typhon 14t or 16t pinion?

    Hi guys, I have an typhon 6s v3 (i run it on single 3s). There is an (long) story behind that but it doesn't matter. So i was wondering, the manual says the 16t pinion is only for high speed runs and not for start stop driving bashing, etc. since it is bad for your motor. But the V4 typhon...

    Kraton Grub Screw Backed Out - Thread Lock Recommendations

    Hi all, After only 3 packs, my new Kraton's grub screw backed out of my pinion and took a bite out of my motor mount. Luckily, I don't see any major structural damage even though I didn't notice until the end of the run. My question is, what kind of thread lock is recommended? I didnt see...

    Granite kv-pinion thoughts

    So in my homemade bigrock/granite conversion I'm running a 1900 kv motor with a 26 tooth pinion on 3s. It runs like a raped ape. I'm happy with it but I'm not sure when the weather actually makes it too the plus side of 0* whether or not its gonna overheat or not? Whats your thoughts?

    Kraton Is this pinion noise normal?

    I recently broke the stock pinion and replaced it with a Robinson 12T mod1 pinion from the LHS. Ive read these pinions sound different but Im wondering if this sounds normal? The spur gear is centered on the pinion and I believe the mesh is proper. Im not having any heat issues, it just seems to...

    pinion questions

    i put in the 16 t pinion for Arrma Outcast and it goes way faster but sometimes when i smash trigger at slow speed it sounds and feels like it skips a gear and just cogs out and doesn't move. is my mesh not good or is it a side effect from higher gearing?

    Kraton Highest quality pinions?

    Hi all, I noticed crappy pinions lead to the fast destruction of spur gears. So, I just picked up a tekno rc pinion gear that was a decent price, looks pretty nice.... Robinson racing pinion gears surprisingly aren't good, they are super soft! I bought one of these...

    Outcast pinion issues, help please

    Hi guys, Third run on my outcast today and it's first on 6s. Was very happy until the pinion gear grub screw came loose and the gear slid towards the end of the motor shaft. I assume the motor shaft flat does not extend all the way to the end, to stop the gear flying off in such situations...

    What does 0.8 Mod pinion/spur gear mean

    Hello Guys, I just wanted to ask about the gearing that is seen at the speed card of the Granite Mega truck. I know the 48dp already which is the pitch size. But I could not seem to find what 0.8 Mod means. Thanks in advance.

    How bad are 1/8 Arrma Pinions?

    I hear a lot of stories about people busting pinions and/or shredding spur gears on the 1/8 line up due to pinion failure.. Should I be upgrading pinions immediately on a brand new truck to prevent more damage later on?
