[Puttinstankonia]

I own a quark 125 now and I love it but Im looking to go 5s on my serpent with a pretty strong motor should i go out and get the MGM 160 or just get another quark125. Also having trouble finding .32 pitch high tooth pinions.. Please Advise

I know a couple people have done serpent conversions, so it might be worth having a search for them to get some ideas. The Quark is a solid 5s esc, but the heat issues are a pain in the butt to fix. Price wise, there isnt much between the MGM and 125b, but you will need the programming cables or the card to make life easier with the MGM. As for bigger .32 pinions, 22tooth 1/8 bore is as big as you will find really without getting some custom made: https://sdp-si.com/eStore/ Click on Gears > spur gears.

Mike sells some fairly big .32p 5mm bore pinions if you go with a larger feigao or neu etc.

Thanks for all of the info but how do you get that website to work when it comes to building pinions and spur gears.. I see the different forms of gears and you make ur diameter and stuff but what about the bore and size of the pinion or spur

What serpent are you using? the 1/8th use MOD1 gears?

Im using the Impact 2 seems to have more than enough space for everything I need. Im locking in the 2 speed and using only second gear with a 33/42 application
