I have recently stripped 2 plastic spur gears in a very short time at my track.
The 8E LOSA3552 metal spur seems to fit fine bit the 4 screw holes seem to be smaller than usual and won't allow for standard flat screws to tighten down fully.
I have ordered the Hot Racing 45t steel spur but want to know if the 8e losa 3552 steel spur can work too?
Thanks
I stripped a few myself, but that was only because of the motor mount coming loose. It flexed just enough to where a hard crash killed the spur. I didn't use enough loctite on the threads. I ended up using a combination of Teflon tape and loctite. Once I solved that issue, no more stripped spurs.
