b44 gearin problems

[pizzaman]

what is the correct gearing for a b44 with sphere comp2007 x11 5.5 bonded an lipo saddle packs on 81 tooth spur gear
cheers for any help

[Timee80]

i think either a 17 or 18 tooth pinion with standard spur is about right buddy

BUMP

[pizzaman]

have try 17,19, 20 pinions and it is still doing about 5to 6 laps and shutting down with both motor an esc hot my 6.5 sinted runs at 84/26 and is fine for the 5.5 bonded should it be more like 84/23.
or is 17 wright an something is wrong

[showtime]

i run an 18 on my 4.5 with no issues

16 or 17t pinion on 81t spur would be about right for a bonded 5.5

there is no correct gearing it all depend on track size driving style etc etc what is everybody else running

[pizzaman]

no matter what track size or my driving style if geared right it should do more than 6 25second laps before overheating.surely

that sounds like more of a electics issue rather than a gearing issue.

Hey Pizzaman, It's worth dropping the pinion off and checking that the drive train is all running free too. You may have already done this, so just a suggestion along side finding a base setting for your gearing.

take the rotor out to see if its fluffed up and damaged
