As well what tooth pinion would you recommend for the CRT.5 running a 3s and mamba 5700? I am looking for speeds around 40-45 tops.

Thanks for the help,

The key to hardened pinions lasting with hardened spurs is no flex in the mount if the mesh changes heat and stress from the metal on metal gears kills the pinions seems to be the conclusion. Start with a 13t pinion that should get you close to what you want.

If anyone is interested the Jammin aluminum upgrade parts are out for the CRT.5 Nitrohouse has them in stock and on Ebay I should have the aluminum steering link and front and rear hubs tomarrow.:005:
