does anyone know if someone makes a 46 tooth spur for the mbx-5 - RC-Monster Forums

magman

I am looking for a 46 tooth for my mugen. I did the speed calulations and w/my setup...9xl,mm esc, 4s the top speed is 32 or so and this is w/ a 16t pinion...is this about right?

I only have 4s batts right now so I guess this is about right. Anyone else using a similar set up...would like to know your results

thanks

I'm not sure if this http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...YOIF148&cat=40 will fit, but it's 46T. If it doesn't then this http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/1776 will.

I don't believe the koyosho one fits...

PS I had the 9XL /4s in a MBX5 and x1cr a will need to double check but had I think 18 when in buggy mode...

The kyosho plastic spurs will not fit the mugen center diff , because the mugen uses 5mm outdrive's & the kyosho outdrives are 6mm .

I use the Kyosho center diff with 46T nylon gear in my MBX5. You need to get some Kyosho diff mounts, but it's a direct bolt-in.

The stock spur is 46t? What happened to the stock gear?

Edit: I need to read before I post

. My best guess is that he bought a used roller and someone might have changed it or he was using something else and found that with the 46T he would get more speed.

I am looking for more speed hence the larger spur

Have you tried bigger pinions? It's what I usually do when I need more speed. Right now I have a 17T and if I want more speed I can just add a from 18-30T pinions. For more speed you would need a smaller spur and/or bigger pinions, but keep in mind you will also increase the amount of AMPs.
