You are in for a lot of fun

I've compiled a list of links here to help with your build.

That body will work well for your application.

Gearing for pan cars is based on rollout for tire size and gear ratio, not fixed like sedan.

Stock spec esc is a good choice.

Futaba S9650 is most widely used servo for 12th.

thanks very much, it will help a lot.

could you just explain a little bit how am i suppose to gear the car?

i mean, i can calculate the final ratio of course, but how the diametere of the tire change the parameters?

spur/ pinion X ratio (which is 1 in pan car right?)
and then?
can you make an exaple with your car so i understand?

and with the consume of the foam tire..do we need to adjust something?

thanks!
