Got it running tonight, fitted with orion carbon lipo and an oldish trinity d5, which I think is a 14x1. Blimey its fast and strong....ahem... Anyhoo, its left me with a couple of questions
Smallest pinion I had was a 23t from what I have read, thats a bit over geared for an outdoor track, any recommendations for a 14x1? I think spur is std kit one
On the subject of pinions, all the ones I have are 2nd hand and the grub screws are in bad shape. AE pinions from mt tc3 to be precise and I'm guessing I was given the wrong allen key as although it fits, when you try to tighten it up, it slips. Pinion came loose several times during the evening cos of this. So I want to invest in a couple of pinions and a decent driver - Am I right in thinking a std pinion driver is 1.5mm and basic rw pinions will all be metric? I think the owner of the tc3 may have mixed and matched pinion/grub and allen metric/imp.
Sorry if questions are basic!!!
