Default Gearing?

Hi guys,

I was wondering if you guys could share some of your gearing setups for your Cyber10B. I'm running 26/80 with a Tekin Redline8.5 Brushless motor for a rather small technical track and it's getting rather hot. What has been working for you in terms of motor and gearing?

Thanks.

Hi,
26/80 seems a bit much. (7.5:1)
I've been running 22/84 on the Nosram Pure 6.5T Brushless. (9.30:1)

8.5T, I'd be looking at 24 or 25 with an 84 spur. 8.53/8.19:1

With a Losi Xcelorin 17.5, I ended up at 35/78 (FDR 5.35).

After a 5 minute club race, temps peak around 138F.

Speaking of which, I ran the C10B for the first time last Sunday at my local club meet in 4wd stock. The buggy was competitive. Qualified second and managed a second in one of the finals after some support and suggestions from the top driver.

I noticed it's quite heavy compared to the competition. Mine is hitting 1720g after I added some adhesive chassis protector. Think I'll revert back to the non-slipper setup to get some weight out of the drivetrain.

If they have the standard dimensions that all hardcase lipos have, they should fit. You can download the manual and have a look, there are no obstructions or bottom holes in the battery tray. Only one problem could arise: If you chose to put the spacer foam in the front and the battery to the rear, it could rub against the drive shaft.

Its the height I am concerned with. The IP5000mah is 25mm high including the small lumps on the bottom.

Can't get one of the Button Head Screw (located at the rear shock tower) out as the top has lost it's shape. Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

Ermmmmmm
Good Question
For the 24 Hour race we ran a 10.5 Brushless (19T Equivalent with a 14mm Sintered Rotor)
This we had on 26/84.

I have no data for 23T motors. I've never run one at all.

Hi scrawl... just experimenting, is the front Center Drive Shaft (86.5mm) suppose to be so close to the edge of the slipper?

Sorry for the pic quality.

I'm sorry in case I overlooked it anywhere else, but does anybody know, when the orange *Bling* (slipper clutch etc.) willl be released?
I'm still wondering whether to buy a Cyber this year, although the Off-Road season will be almost over when I return from the States in late August and the little time that will be left is reserved for my SC10 (that finally starts to behave after I added some 1° rear Yokomo hub carriers)...
Although I have fallen in love with the DEX410, I think it to be overkill for running a 13.5T motor maximum.

Can't you put these packs upside down: so the lumps point up. since there are 6 lumps you should have a lower gap int the middle to help clear the CVD.

(This all in the assumption these packs don't have plugs on the top but old-fashioned lead coming out at the end)

Hi Leinad, I never installed the D4 front drive shaft due to not having a spare CVD rebuild kit. I did a quick eyeball and the dimensions looked like it was possible.

I think that is uncomfortably close to the end of the outdrive.

Can't do, as you say, my packs have the banana plugs so won't work upside down.

Anyone else.

Cheers

did anyone try using the D4 motor mount on the cyber?
Adam where did you get your 84t spur ,my sliper for d4 only come with 80t. Using the 80t I can only manage to get a 22t pinion ,anything smaller it just way too far apart.

Maybe he used an Associated spur gear. Provided you use the AE slipper pads, I guess it should work.

Spur Gear 84T: A-9653
Slipper Pads: A-9603

84T Spur is stock in the Cyber 10B.

Is it also stock for the orange slipper clutch? Are the "orange" spur gears the same as the "purple" ones?
