Smile Gear Support

Hey Guys,

I was thinking of getting this gear support made for the front one way. I know the tamiya factory guys have something similar. It is a support that *has the same circumference* as the gear. Made out of aluminum .062 in thick (same thickness as the graphite piece).

I tried shimming the one way but still stripped a couple.

I don't know if a support like this will solve it, but I know it will help.

I'll test it and see if it works. If it helps I'll have more made. My co-worker owns a machine shop and is making them for me.

Your feed back is appreciated.

Here is how it looks like.
