I did the speed calculator and with 44t spur and 12 tooth pinion with a neu 15151y 2200kw on 4s is going to be about 40mph and 65mph on 6s. I wonder if the the pinion being so smal will hurt any thing. With the 44tooth spur I dont have too do any cutting on the chassis or braces. Thanks for the welcome I have been here for a week learning all i can to do this conversion. I am a regular on the ue Supermaxx forum and want to try electrics again with the latest brushless technolgy. George16 is the main reason for this expensive adventure.Thanks lito lol. I have a nice collection of nitro Supermaxxes and wanted to try somthing else.

The pinion should work. I'm worried about the same thing with my gearing. I definately wouldn't go any smaller. 65mph with a big truck takes huge power. I'm pretty sure I'm overgeared, but I want to put the kb45 through some torture. Just check temps often until you know the gearing is okay. Start a thread and show off your supermaxxes! We'll give ya crap for running smelly nitro, but we all love r/c!

Hey there RiverMaxx welcome to the RCM forum. I thought that I recognized your sig when I saw your post. Nice to see you making the switch to BL. It can be a lot less work once you do your conversion. No fuels, no starter gear, no glow plugs to deal with, and no tuning to do. Yea Lito is trouble isn't he? You have to watch out for those Navy guys. We hope that you will enjoy hanging out here with the BL gang. There are a few pretty smart people here with tons of good info, and there are also some pretty funny guys as well right lincpimp. Its all in good fun though. I used to spend a lot of time on the UE site, but once they started abandening us and stocks dwindled it was time to move on. That is too bad since the UE gear is some nice stuff. We have a lot of it here. Anyway good luck with your project and have some fun.
