ok guys back to me :005:. is my gearing off? whats ideal for a rusty? i plan on getting a fan for the controller, and a diff motor is in the near future so i can get rid of this 5mm shaft s can so i can run the gearing i wont.

....

maby some people dident see it what gearing is ideal for a rusty?

nobody knows how to gear a rusty :rolleyes:

Do you have a set of pinions? Sometimes experimenting with different numbers of teeth is as better way of finding the ideal gearing that having others tell you what it is.
If you go back to 48p gears, Robinson Racing makes some nice pinion gear sets. BTW, 32p IMO isn't necessary. What's most important is gear mesh and the flexing of the motor plate (if you have the stock plastic tranny).

What motor are you running? Being able to strip the gear is pretty good power, Maybe you got too much motor for the esc

Gear stripping doesn't only come from power. If the motor plate flexes so that the gear mesh changes, then just about any brushless power will strip the spur gear. Since switching to an aluminum tranny case, the only spur gear stripping I do is either my error with gear mesh or else I didn't tighten the motor screws enough.

Yup. Metalman is right. Stampy...gear down! That will solve your problems, or should...Try 2 teeth to begin with.

well the issue is my motor has a 5mm shaft and 18teeth is the smallest they make in 48p. so im basically stuck until i can get a diff motor. metal, its a stock tranny case so im sure its flexing. with the slipper tighted all the way down it strips 48p gears in the first hit of full power:eek: and the gear mess is set correctly, im not a noob to rc i can set gear mesh with my eyes closed :027:

squee's suggestion to drop two teeth should do it. Mike doesn't have any 32p 5mm bore 12t pinions, though.

nope the thing with that is the pinoin would be so thin that the set srew would more than likly strip :(. I just need a diff motor. id like to get a 380c 8L but i dont know if they make one. i was told the 9t would work but would run alittle hot on 3s how bout a lenher 1920 what turn would work good on a 3s? there alittle pricy but if they run like the 1950s then it should be well worth it :)

Yea, a 1920 would be the best way to go.

what turn should i go with? there 1/8" shafts right?

I think there 4mm but I'm not sure to be honest.

i think your right they are 4mm lame:002: what about a lenher xl 3600 would one work in a rusty? a new motor is a must now! :035: dont know what happend but i know its bad
