Thanks traxxasbasher. It looks like the smallest they have in "stock" is a 15T. I'll email them and see if they can make me a 12T pinion.

Any progress?

Hmmm.... Not really. Dan @ KD told me a 12T 32p gear with a 6mm bore would be almost impossible to make since the bore is sooo close to the inner radius of the gear teeth. In other words, it could self-destruct under a high enough load. :cry:

I'm far from letting this one go, however. I've gotten the drill case cleared out enough that everything fits inside. That's quite an accomplishment in itself. :yes:

Hmm, can you turn the motor shaft down and use a 5mm bore pinion? I made a nifty pvc clamp for my machinist when he turned Paralyzed's shaft down (sounds nasty:yipi:) and it turned out fine...

Since 5mm/32p gears are readily available, I'll probably be using one of the 600XLs I have here in place of the KB45. I'll be going "all the way" with 6s LiPo, too.

So now, in addition to being 3 times as powerful as stock, having 3 times the runtime vs. stock, and being BL to boot, it's going to SOUND LIKE A JET!!!!!

Sounds great. We need a vid of this thing, with good sound!!! I have a milwaukee v28 lithium drill hanging around... Maybe I should convert it to brushless... Just need a good 7s capable esc.

Geezus! You have one of those!? I should have known... :lol: I was going to get one if this project wasn't working out- I'm both thrilled and depressed at the same time. :rofl:

Yup, have the drill and circular saw. I like cordless stuff, just picked up a new dewalt 18v nicd and a milwaukee swazall, as 18v nicd. Too cheap to pass up!

i suggest having Linc machine your shaft, they don't call him the pimp for nothin'! If I remember right he tapped a couple holes too. Nice.

No. I have been working on other projects lately. AKA the crawler. :yes: I've had Christmas shopping to do, too, so I'm kinda short on cash. :lol:
