If you have someone who can suggest gearing at your track for a 4000kv to 4700kv motor, then just determine that theoretical speed for a starting point and find what achieves this with your current KV motors. From there, watch temps.
That will in general get you in the ball part.

A 21t should be a good place to start with the 3500kv on 2s.
You're correct in that a lower KV motor would normally run a larger pinion, but only if the voltage is the same. Since your 3000 is running 3s, the higher voltage actually cancels the need for a larger pinion out, since the motor will be spinning faster than it would be on 2s.

Hi folks,
I've been following this forum for a bit and I'm a big fan of Tekno.
Just about to pull the trigger on a sct410.3 and would thought i'll ask for opinions about the electronics.
I'm planning to use it for casual racing at outdoor loose coarse dirt BMX tracks some the size of 1/8 and some 1/10th. It's mostly going to be fun with friends and no RC clubs so no requirements for ROAR legal electronics.
I'm leaning towards Hobbywing for the ESC + Motor. Should I be looking at 3400, 4000 or 4700 KV for these sort of tracks?
My budget is up to $200 for ESC & Motor and I'm open to other suggestions besides HW
Cheers!

use one of the common speed calculators out there and shoot for a theoretical speed of 35 to 40mph.

A 16t should be a good place to start with the 3000kv on 3s.

I was curious what setup people are using indoors, we are running slicks on a tight track with small jumps. I am traction rolling like crazy right now. I was going to try emulation shocks and I have the hrc rear hubs

Has anyone raced the Flo-Tek Fusion?
Usually i dont go pre cut but thus one isnt that much more expensive then a shell.

When you say slicks, are you saying super soft or clay?
Out here the fast tekno guys are running on extremely high traction carpet with slicks clay compound. Some even use the harder proline tires like street fighters. Common things I can tell are they:
- Go with heavy sway bars
- stiffer springs
- Limit droop alot . Not uncommon to see the front come off of a jump with little droop, almost arms level.
That just from what I can tell visually. I am also assuming they are using smaller hole pistons, heavier shock oil, and heavier diff fluid too.
