hey guys

i've tried fitting on TC3 gears on and i got both gears to fit on but the small bevel gear is not a good tight fit due the inside hole diameter being the same all the way through where as pro 4 small bevel gear has a smaller diamter hole on the top for it to stay flush with the input shaft slot to fit the E- clip in.

i was wondering how you guys made your TC3 small bevel gears to fit on the input shaft with no slop. as with the slop it causes the gears to crunch at certain points of the radius where the small bevel gear is not dead centre with the input shaft.

also may i ask what the difference in apperance between the 1.1 and stock small bevel gear? i have 2 types hard to explain but one of the gears show all the gears towards the bottom (like in the manual) and one has like a flat washer built into it if you know what i mean

right now im running the pro 4 small bevel gear with the tc3 ring gear as both small gears have the same amount of tooth just dunno how long it will last.

And input will be appreciated
thanks
