I wonder if the the pinion being so smal will hurt any thing. With the 44tooth spur I dont have too do any cutting on the chassis or braces. Thanks for the welcome I have been here for a week learning all i can to do this conversion. I am a regular on the ue Supermaxx forum and want to try electrics again with the latest brushless technolgy. George16 is the main reason for this expensive adventure.Thanks lito lol. I have a nice collection of nitro Supermaxxes and wanted to try somthing else.

The pinion
should work. I'm worried about the same thing with my gearing. I definately wouldn't go any smaller. 65mph with a big truck takes huge power. I'm pretty sure I'm overgeared, but I want to put the kb45 through some torture. Just check temps often until you know the gearing is okay. Start a thread and show off your supermaxxes! We'll give ya crap for running smelly nitro, but we all love r/c!
