I guess that means a 19T pinion should do the trick. Where do you find the FDR for a 10.5 BL motor ?

I use Hara/HB springs, with the low support HB, too.

Oops ! More like a 40T pinion.

96/40=2.4 x 2.0588= 4.94112

Right ?

Does anyone know if 48 pitch spur and pinion will fit on the E4 FS ?

Marcos, if I go this route, any recommendations for me instead of the 96T spur (64 pitch) ?

Thanks

no problem , the car has limited room to move the motor around so your best bet is to get a few different spur sizes and pinions,this way you shouldnt have any issues getting the FDR that you need.

For 10.5 BL, a 48P 72T Spur works great. Lower than this, will not let you mesh...its 64P equivalent is 96T.

Get Kimbrough Spur gears or PRS....tower Hobbies, Stormer Hobbies, or NexusRacing.net

e4 movie

i did practice for Korea national race (will be beld after 2 weeks)

the modified class must use 5 cells.

i tested LRP 3.5T(4 timing).. But.. i want to get a little punch.

i am considering to buy New Speed Passion 2 BL 3.5 motor.

could it give more punch?
