I am trying to change out the pinon from the nitro size to the electric size and there is a gear on the inside of it that has to be removed I figured it would be a sun gear

But the pinion would be on the Nitro motor, correct? Called a clutch bell and has a clutch installed inside. Unless you are talking about the differentials and then you do not have change anything.

The larger of these gear's would be a "Sun gear". The smaller gear's are called "Spyder gears" Your going to have to look at your manual and figure out the parts your trying to describe.

Sorry I have my gears all messed up I need to take the gear off that is on the inside of the spur gear on the book it shows there is a pin outdrive that is on the back of the sun gear I need to get that sun gear off to replace the spur gear to the size of the electric from the nitro size.


Sorry for getting the names messed up.

Still kinda confused, But if i think i know what your talking about, Just Use a pair of needle nose pliers and pull on the gear.
There isn't anything Holding it per say but the pin on the backside is "keying" it into place. The oil is what is making it difficult to remove, Just grab it with a little force But make sure not to Slip the pliers off or you can damage the teeth.

comming from a nitro truggy of all my racing experience, i hate the "twitchyness" of an electric buggy. so i opt to run 5k/5k/5k in mine to have more understeer. just finish testing the setup, and i kind of like it. works with 55/35wt front shocks and 56/25wt rear shocks.

what setup does the rest of yous running? mainly shock piston/oil and diff oil.

Integra he'll either be very thankful, or very upset with you.


Losimoe I run 5/7/2 in the diffs, and F-54/45wt green R-56/30wt black. It may be a little twitchy to your taste, but I hate a car that has to be forced round corners.

Hey looking for some indoor track med sized clay high grip type set ups for running at ocrc. I have been set up more for larger outdoor revelation type tracks and looking to switch it up.

Thanks in advance

anyone have any input on the tekno v4 conversion kit. Looking to convert my last nitro to e powerand was thinking this is a pretty cheap way to do it and maybe set it up as a real e power set up vs a converted gas set up. I really like the in line driveline idea vs the high angle front that eats up the d-bones on the stock 8ight set up. Anyone have a set ups for indoor ocrc type track for this kit

Thanks

Hi Mate

i think most people are running the Adam Drake set up and just playing with shock oils for electric side of things thats about all

apart from that his set up will be in the ball park of where you need to be

as for conversion kits there is a few out there all have pros and cons

Also dont think the tekno layout is much of a change over the stock losi.. U dont get the inline driveshaft like the mugen an others..

The Tekno conversion doesn't add anything to the Losi, that Losis own conversion don't add. Actually IMO it's a much better option to go with the one from Losi.
The fact that center diff and motor are mounted together, pretty much eliminates flex in the area.
