Kraton Pinion popped out ...

[Plopez12808]

I've ran the Kraton about 5 times now. Now crazy jumps as I wanted to get used to it. It did take a few tumbles after hitting a rock or branch. Was shaking out some debris today after a run and what came out... the pinion...good day...I simply placed it back on there for the pic

That's a nasty looking pinion. You might want to replace it with a Tekno or Robinson pinion.

Might want to replace those awful motor mount Screws while you're at it..
Since you're going to need to adjust the mesh anyways.

Pic made it look worse than it is. Just dirt

 

[Tex Koder]

Actually the pinion does look to be chewed up..

And you have grass lodged in your ESC fan..
Don't let your ESC catch fire.

Needs a deep cleaning or at least use an air compressor to blow that dirt off.

What do you recommend for motor mount screws?

 

[Senton_Prime]

Cap heads.. like the ones about a inch away

What do you recommend for motor mount screws?

Stainless steel M4x16 with washers


Or, if you want to spend a little more coin for custom titanium.. Give @RedondoBeachRC a buzz..

Nice thanks for the info, really digging the titanium.

 

[RC Steve]

Another option for motor mount screws is flush mount screws and counter sunk aluminum washers like what Tekno uses. I'm a Tekno freak so that's how I do it and it doesn't damage the red finish.

Those nice Hex Torx titanium bolts are out of stock at redondobeachrc.com they only have the dome ones. Bummer

They were both Pre-owned rigs..
You should've seen what they looked like BEFORE I gave them the old spit shine treatment...

I can't find the original photos of the Mojave..
But, here's the Kraton when I first got it >>
