being open I'm new to the RC game, I'm very mechanical and tinker with everything from guns to hi-performance outboards. I bought my son and I typhon 3s BLX's for christmas (they are on sale and couldn't refuse) He's only 6 so the Mega would probably have been a better decision for him.
anyway, I saw the mega brushed motor/ESC in the classifieds here so I picked them up, thinking I would slap them in his car for the year then put the brushless in when he's comfortable. now looking at things closer the gearing seems to be an issue. the mega has a 14 pinion, 91 spur (6.5/1). the BLX has a 15 pinion, 57 spur (3.8/1) looking at my gearing options I only see pinions down to 13, and all .8 spur gears I can find are still 57.
anybody have an idea how to get close to the MEGA gearing with my BXL?
