I've had to do the same thing to the one or other odd gear. I was typically able to rotate the rest out using a small jeweler's screwdriver.Funny you bring up the flat part of the pool. Last night, that was one of the modifications I made on mine. I used a Dremel to grind out a slighly larger are of flat so that I could reverse the stock spool gear and have a place for the set screw to seat. Was it a hack? Sure was, but I'm going to get that damn car running if it means chopping every thing in it to make it work with what I have. For the record, I had to drill out the cross pin head because of red loctite. The spur is only being held on by one set screw as both openings at 180 are threaded on the Arrma pinions. I used a small enough bit that I didn't wreck the threads in the first hole, but I can't figure out how to remove the remaing metal that was left in the hole. Does anyone else see how bad this is going? I think it's time I take up needle point, but I'd probably still end up stabbing myself.
