Hi,

I'm running a 27T brushed motor (Trinity Co27), I run some older J-concepts Goose Bumps.

If you use clay tyres on the clay and Schumachers on the grass you should alter the gearing due to the different tyres diameter

So if you take your gear/spur and the tyres as and I'm guessing here on tyre size

Schumacher = 80mm dia = rollout of 26.26mmpr
Clay Tyre = 90mm dis = rollout of 29.54mmpr

So you would need a 25t pinion (29.84mmpr) to get close to the clay tyre rollout, but allowing for the drag of the grass use a 24.

MMPR = Tyre diameter (mm) x PI (3.14) / Number of Spur Teeth x Number of Pinion Teeth / Drive Ratio

if my maths is wrong and the B4.1 internal ratio wrong shoot me down
