spur b4

[stampede vxlboy]

does the spur gear make a noise b4 or should it be smooth ? any help plz . or do all buggy make noise from the spur gear ?

all goes off dp size, but on a b4 should be quiet, sounds to me you havnt got enough clearance between the pinion and spur. or slightly too much (is it stripping the teeth?)

You should also check the gap is consistant by rotating the spur one full rotation, and checking the gap. Not all spur gears are perfectly round so what may seem enough on one side may be tight on the other.
I use a bit of paper or insulation tape between the teeth when I set mine so it cant be too tight.

i seen a few people that done that in the past but never actually tried it. does it work on 64 dp gears or just the 48dp

[rc_dan]

i use the paper trick. works every time with 48dp's

should work on 64 dp to, try it ? try a Rizla if not

If you find paper too thick for the finer 64dp use tissue paper folded.
