Im trying to gear my sc10 for a 7.5 and Im a little stumped. I have a 72, 75, and 78 spur gear and if you shout out a number I more than likely have the pinion that would work. Just looking for a starting point.

looks like you need a bigger spur gear like an 84T based on what AE is showing in the SC10 FT manual.

They basically go down a tooth for each motor type. so in your case, a 7.5 you would use 16T pinion with an 84T spur if that method holds true.

not sure though if there is enough room to do that.

If you are running a Novak. They say to run it at a 11 FDR
17/72 = 11.01
18/78 = 11.27
19/81 = 11.08
20/84 = 10.92


I have done the same thing off their web site with my 13.5T it moves very well. I think I have a bad rotor though

I noticed that I have the RS hex conversion on my new ftsc10. the hexes are cool but you can't adjust the height of the axle. I don't think its critical but I will be switching it out to a Proline hub so I can shim the axle up or down. Im sure it makes enough of a difference to the pro drivers. Wonder why they didn't make the hub shorter to put in the spacers.

never mind, I think this is it:

http://www.teamnovak.com/tech_info/b...r_gearing.html

one interesting thing though is they say "0" timing. On a novak, do they mean the N timing which is really 30 degrees?

yes they mean 30 degs, that's factory setting

and That is where I got the 11 FDR from

I just converted mine tonight. Lol. I thought something was wrong as first. Id imagine the hub could be sanded to give it clearance in order to use spacers.

The N must mean Neutral or something. I had my ballistic running advanced timing on a 8.5T on accident.

So I have to snug the wheel so it'll spin freely but the wheel has a little too much play and I'm sure that will affect performance.

Is there something missing here that I'm not aware of?

i'm not sure which hex conversion it is, but it slips right over the pin that's it. It seems like its missing shims or something.
can someone help a brotha out?
I was just having the same prob last week, well take the axle off and remove the bearings and make sure that the c clip is n the center slot on the axle nearest the treads and see if this takes care of your prob

I ran 18/84 with a Tekin Redline 6.5.
You might want to 'de-tune' your motor via the ESC. (Current limiting of some sort)

Got a response from novak, the 0 degrees they were referring to was in reference to the ESC setting as well as leaving the timing on the motor at 30 degrees / N.

So if you are using a boosting ESC, keep that in mind with your FDR.
