pinion

Do I put a grease or lube on pinion and spur gears. Researched the net and most say yes but some say no. Thx!

Hi...just signed up to the forum today after buying an outcast- second hand though. My first impressions are that on pulling the trigger and holding it before it sets off, all I can say is it sounds 'grainy' if that makes sense. I just don't know what it's meant to sound like and wondered if a...

Hello I recently upgraded my Granite BLS with metal gears in the tranny and I also upgraded the spur and pinion gear to the same ones that come stock on the BLX. The issue I'm having now is the only way my tires spin is if I pick up the rear end. If the tires are on the ground the pinion n...

Ok so after busting a million Pinion Gears, I decided to check the center diff and it seems that there is a lot of play between the bearings where it spins. The one bearing is housed in the red aluminum but the other is in a very flexible black plastic situation. Question 1: I'm wondering if...

I've ran the stock 12t, arrma 14t and now the optional 16t and all 3 have stripped. It's still on stock settings. Are the robinson racing gears for these any good? I run robinson gears on all my other trucks. Opinions on what's the toughest pinion gear for the outcast?

is the 16t ok to run for bashing also? Is there a happy medium between the 12 and 16t. Also what's a good aftermarket pinion to get that's stronger than an arrma pinion. Part numbers would be appreciated!

I was running my kraton today continuing to shake it out after basically taking it totally apart and upgrading everything possible. I was running an smc 5200mah 4s pack on xt150 connectors. Esc is a hobbywing max8 set to maximum punch with 14t pinion with red loctite. This thing was punching...

Any advice. I'm having a hard time with this truck, last time we ran it, it was fine, this time, about two minutes in, the pinion backed away from the motor. I locked it down with blue locktite last time and cranked on the set screw to the point of almost stripping it. Did the same just now...

And not sure why it happened so I don't do it again Ran my K on 6s for first time yesterday. Started pretty slow then after a few minutes ran it up to full throttle out about 100 yards and then turned around and headed back. Hit a bump on the way back and did a few cartwheels before landing...

Hi all, I just got my V2 Kraton in yesterday, Wahhoo! :cool: Ran it on 4S for a while, then switched to 6S, but my fun was short-lived... :( I totally shredded the stock (12T) pinion gear after only 3 wheelies! Guess someone didn't tighten this up correctly on the assembly line. So... I...

Please note!: all issues have been fixed by Arrma support and this post is an experience told no more. hi guys.. I have bought the Fazon a week ago and had no fun with it since then. First after unboxing it I connected my 6S lipos and tried it in air just ti see how much the tires would...

what is people's opinion on the sweet spot? Like 4s with optional pinion. Or 6s stock pinion.

Hello fellow Kraton owners!! Recently purchased a new Kraton and I've been having a blast with it!!! What a beast! I am however having a few minor issues. I broke a suspension mount so tonight i decided to do my first routine maintenance on this bad boy. After getting the suspension mount in no...

Arrma.. if I was at a track trying to race traxxas and losi and associated and had to change pinions I'd have to fore fit.. the design may be rock solid and indestructible but for #$@k sake at least make a pinion change not take 45 mins... maybe a redisign on your part... so dumb but so...

anyone that has any experience with bigger pinion on senton and if there is any heat problems? Thinking about putting the 16T on or maybe get one bigger. Also putting on 1/8 buggy wheels on it.

Has anyone changed the pinion to 18t and 8.4 battery on the mega? Will it overheat the esc?

I ran into a problem with the pinion gear, whoever built this car really tightened the crap out of the grub screw and/or used too much thread lock. While I was not using ball-hex drivers, I was using a quality set of metric Allen keys (not the kit crap keys) and just when I thought it broke the...

Hello everybody! I'm getting my first Arrma car on tuesday, the Arrma Talion. The car is not new, it's used 3 times. I have a question about the diff oil and the pinion gear. The oil that's in the car right now is 100k at the front and back and 200k in the center diff. Do I have to change...

I know it say u will over heat ur motor and/or ESC for using the extra pinion gear. but my friend is using his for bashing on 3-4-6s and hasn't had anything wrong with his motor or ESC. Been over 15 runs with it. Will it actually effect his rc anytime and anyone recommend it? I'm thinking of...

Hi, quick question, just wanted to know what pinion gear is already installed in the Talion right out of the box?
