Thanks Serum.

I have a similar sheet that I use for calculating gear ratio and speeds.

I was actually wondering if you had any real world input from one of your setups.
It probably doesn't matter though. Every truck is different depending on the motor, batteries, tires, weight, etc... I should be able to get a decent base line from the overall gearing I run in the Maxx and Revo.

Just wasn't exactly sure how much the 2 speed would effect the motor and ESC temps. Was thinking that running an overall gear ratio for the Savage 2nd gear that I normally would run in a single speed setup might undergear the it for first gear and cause the motor to run hotter. Then on the flip side, gearing it up to get similar overall gear ratio in first gear would overgear 2nd gear and cause ESC temp issues.

I'm sure it won't take me long to figure out, just looking for a base line to work from is all.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
