Hi, I just got a new p2k2 motor, can't wait till it arrives. my qution is what would be an apropriate gear ratio (motor pinion) to run for this motor for drifting? MY user guide of the cars (tc3) says 28 teeth ratio = 6.43, towerhobbies says to start at 21 teeth, which is a ratio = 8.57 . but that is for grip, any suggestions on a ratio that is good for drifting and doesn't overload the motor?

anthony390

for drifting you want to go around the undergearing part but not to much

that is beacuse of tourqe matters

anthony390

so i would say around 24 to 26 tooth for drifting and well stick
with the 72 tooth spur for the tc3

i use a 25 with my TC3 drifting 24-26 is fine

anthony390

told ya

LOL

Jk

PaZ

yer and i use a 28 with me 19 high speed slides

anthony390

well i use a costum 19 turn quad magnet motor gaered at 28tooth with a 69tooth spur

so the 25 is allright for 27T, great, no other gear to buy, 6$ I'll save.
tnx

okay.so whats a good gear set up for a 10x2 mod motor in a tc3 for drifting?
it can be either 64pitch set up or 48pitch set up i use both.

23 - 25 tooth pinion

and 72 or 75 tooth spur

those are 48 pitch
