I am usually running 3.8-4.2. I think I went to 3.5 at timezone this summer.

Sounds like you need to get yourself some more balls.

The RC12R5 kit came with 6 as well (at least the one I just bought and built did). The RC12R5.1 came with 12 according to its manual.

What's a good starting rollout for 12th scale at the Hanger? I've got a 76 tooth spur finally so the diff is built and I picked up a few pinions (44, 45, and 46 tooth) but I know I'll need more. Tires are uncut at this point.

edit: ESC is a Novak Havoc Sport 1S with shorter heatsink and motor is a SS Pro if it makes a difference.

Default Spur

Hey Wes, I picked up some of the Xray RW's in 92, 94, 96 and 100. I've been running the 94t in stock and have had no issues with getting the spurs to mesh with the pinion for gearing between 3.7 to 4.1-ish. Hope that helps-Alvin

+1 Sean. I want to buy from your shop and support the H30 tubmasters.

The new xray has my interest as well as the TC6.
