Hi everyone
I have an ECX Torment 2wd 1:10 RC and I run big bore aluminium shocks, Proline Badlands SC 2.2/3.0 and a Castle Creations sidewinder 3 SC 1406 4600Kv brushless combo.
I just recently installed this brushless system into my RC. I am following the Castle creations gearing chart for ECX Torment. It says you can use the 48pitch 87T spur gear and run a 12 to 16Tooth pinion gear. Now I am asking if using a 16Tooth pinion to 87 tooth spur is any good? I generally use mine for bashing around on my street and in the park so I generally go fast in a straightline on my street but also drive around and bash a little. I think my stock gearing is 19T to 87T. What is good enough to start popping wheelies and also gain a faster speed without overheating the electronics? I live in Australia and I don't wanna go to hot because the weather in summer overheats the electronics. So my main question is a 16Tooth to 87Tooth gearing any good to run and gain torque and speed from?
Thanks!
