We run indoors on a mixture of carpet and polished floor (about 50/50 mix) also lots of jumps and twistys.


Anyone able to advise before I go buy some pinions ?

Technically all motors are different so should take notice of the manufacturers recommended gearing.......!!!

The recommended gear ratio for a speed passion V3 5.5R motor is between 8.8 - 10.5 !!!

Page 33 in the manual gives you the gear ratio's using an 87t spur gear with pinion gears ranging from 16t - 30t !!!

In case you wanna know how to work it out........!!!

spur / pinion x internal = final drive ratio

87 / 22 x 2.47 = 9.76

So according to speed passion you are Technically within there recommended gearing
