What is a good gearing for reedy 6.5 540 motor? Does the kit come with 48p spur gear aswell

I found it 16/93 but is the 93 tooth spur included in the kit?

man I should stop asking questions found it allready the manuel says 91097 spur gear 48p/93t (kit)

anone using the Pro2 style motors from Tekin on a lightweight setup.

I plan to soon ass I can get the rotor

why the uneven tire wear to the right side on rear?

I'm having problems with my slipper. Running the regular factory slipper. the slipper pads appear to be glazing. I've tightened the slipper per the manual. I just put the high torque slipper pads and the same thing.
Should I just a whole new slipper assembly or vented slipper disc?
I'm running a Castle SCT system with the 3800kv motor.
Is there any advantage to running an aluminum belt tensioner pulley ?
Thanks for any help.

Just clean the pads with a X knife and scape the glaze off...
Clean the pads after 20 battery's or so ....

Suggest if your running indoors to remove the gear cover for better ventilation so the motor & slipper can run cooler .



No real advantages using a alloy pulley to my knowledge .

Garodiscs from RC Shox will most likely be what you want if you want to stick with a slipper setup. I am assuming you are not running the VTS Setup?

As mentioned recently by Shark in his testing and as I have experienced as well, the RC Shox Ball Diff conversion has been a big performance booster for the vehicle. Its worth a look if you plan to soldier on with the sc10 4x4.

But if you run on a track where the slipper when it doesn't glaze works well, give the Garodiscs a look.

I'm willing to try just about anything. I cleaned the pads 2 weeks ago and put them back in and it lasted about 5 minutes.
Last week put brand new pads in and doing the same thing.
Something started in the last 2 weeks that wasn't there before. Just trying to figure out what it might be.
How do you clean the metal slipper hub ?

The pads should be lasting you a lot longer then that cdlowe.
If they are glazing that fast you must be running the slipper way to loose .

If using the VTS with three pads , adjust the slipper nut to show about 3/16 of thread showing above the nut ...

Can try a extra pad on the out side of spur , will get even longer pad life & and improved performance ...

Here is what I would suggest if using a dual slipper:

If you have a VTS and want to upgrade, here you go:

Or ideally, you will want this:

That said, to confirm, which slipper setup do you have, either the 2 pad or the VTS 3 pad setup?

Currently running 2 pad set up. Willing to upgrade to the VTS set up.
I'm planning on changing to the Tekin 4.5 motor in the future.

The 3 pad VTS offer's a big improvement in performance compared to the 2 pad design.


Do you race ?

What are your track conditions ?

the 3 pad setups do offer a perform boost, We were lucky in the early days to have clutch baskets like the one from Mac the Knife and others prior to AE releasing a VTS Slipper

My opinion though which a few others may agree, if you are going to keep the vehicle, give strong consideration to upgrading to the RC Shox diff.
