5mm gears?

well, guessing that you will use the emaxx tranny and diffs and a stock sized tire. That gearing would give you about 32-34 mph in 2nd gear. I gear all my stuff for 40 so an 18 tooth would be my starting size and test from there. I have a felling that the 1515 1y would not get hot with a 18, but you could start with the 15 to be on the safe side and gear up during testing.

My thinking exactly. I am starting with the 15t but I think larger pinions may give me cogging problems. I was hoping someone would have tried this already.

The general conscensus(sp?) is that the neu motors work with the mm if the gearing is lower and the mm is setup a specific way. It would be nice if someone could post their esc setting and then the rest of us idiots could copy it! IIRC the start power had to be at the highest setting and the punch control disabled. This got the motor spinning from stop and I think the timing worked better set low. Not sure if anyone adjusted the throttle curve or not. Working with my sh***y memory is not easy, but I would love to try a neu motor.
