So many people asking questions all the way through the thread. I'm just being blunt.

very nice helical cut ring and pinnion

some have asked and yes the diffs are very very strong, my twin motor has yet to kill one yet.

People do say they are strong
Just thought I would let people know there are real Helical gears available.

Hmm..... again try it for your self, the gear has a slight helical cut... BTW do some reading on helical cut gears with out runners, I wouldnt want to use a helical cut gear like hot boddies/ kyosho/ because of side load...

Again you edited, emax Quebec like you asked in a PM about posting pics.. I told him sure!! his pics are great along with his info, grinding down the shafts I dont remember doing?
Remember this idea was never tested before, it was a spur of the moment... trial and error... I still cant understand why your getting frustrated, I even answered your PM's and yet you insist to act like a jerk because I didn't tell you in detail exactly what I did.. what more detail do you need about things I did then the pictures!?!?!? The diffs-- All I did was cut some 1/2 PVC and dremeled it to fit, Absolutely nothing special about that.

The a-arms--- I modified the bulks to fit the upper arms, hell I wasnt even sure that I was going to keep it like that so why would I go into detail about that....

Shocks on my twin LST--- its a LST..... I dont think I needed to explain that.

See what im saying? I also never minded you asking questions but did you really need to have a attitude about it?

As a 4 wheeler , People always break their 5/29 gears before people break 4/88's
the reason is more tooth contact
Same thing here for the Helical ,more angle provides more contact, more gears evenly distribute the load, not just one tooth at a time.

Not my thread , or would supply name part numbers. It was just an example

Good day

Helical does have a problem though, it loads the pinion races perpendicular to their rotation. As the helical gear rotates along the spur it is constantly trying to force itself away from the spur. People with high torque setups would have issues with the inner pinion bearing coming apart due to this load. A thrust bearing would be a good item to add, but space is usually limited in that area...

previous post was purely sarcasm BTW...

Again Since were using real world examples, what type of gears do indy cars use (straight cut) What kind of gears do non snycro trans use.... strait cut as well.. Reason for that is weight/strength, helical offer quieter operation..

Back to rc application... many ON this forum have proved that the side loading of the helical gears utterly destroy the inner bearing..

If this thread bothers you so much then leave it and dont look at it again..... im not going to waste any more of my time responding to you..

No part number or link for your magic helical gears? What kind of crap is that? I hate it when people post "teaser pics" of stuff and them make me look around for like 30 seconds to find them on some other site. Its like people have no idea how lazy I am. I really think all build threads should have a parts list and exploded diagrams at the end of every post, just so I do not have to read too much, it hurts my eyes.
