CRT.5 - My first conversion

A dremel with a abrasive cut off wheel will cut the hardened CB like butter.

Was the 14t century pinion black? I dont think the 14t is hardened the 9-13t pinions are I think? there the black color pinions.

With the MM the 5700 is great on 2s for the dirt and if you want some sick speeds drop in a 3s for some on road fun. If your looking for longer runtimes and mostly drive on dirt then the 4600 might be a better choice.

If your going lipo get a pack rated at 100amps constant the 4000mah Maxamps pack I have rated at 80amps constant gets a little warm with the 5700 motor.:)

Good call on the dremel.... worked like a charm.

Indeed the century pinion was black... the 9-13 are different colors?

I still am leaning toward replacing the Novak with another Novak.... gotta send it in anyway, so I'll see what my options are.

I'll need 20 minutes plus runtime for racing against the nitro boys. Leaning toward that nice Max amps 5000....

The picks of the Century pinions on Towers web site show the 14t in natural steel color and the 9-13t pinions are black? They say there hardened but if it only lasted 2 packs maybe they are not hardened? Could you post a pic of the pinion? I'm curious to see if it was flex that killed it or just soft metal.:032:
