I went with overdriving the front. I will report back in a few days.

cfox109 · 04-30-2009, 02:36 PM

Im planning on getting some of these for my comp rig and my scx. My question though would be if i was to put a highspeed motor in my scx like a 27 turn or faster am i going to have issues with these overdriving too much and breaking stuff?

I've already got in one pack with these gears, and so far I like them. You can definitley see the front wheels turning faster than the rear. My turning radius in 4wd is better, and I seem to be noticing my rig being more stable and easier to control when climbing a rock face that requires wheelspeed.

I doubt that you will have any more problems than you/we did before these came out. The overdrive gears are faster, but not crazy-fast.

Cool thanks

Here's part of a video that I shot/am shooting....it shows a good climb with the new gears up front:

That's a pretty good incline to just walk right up. There was a rock similar to that in our last comp that everybody struggled with.

My gears just came in today... I'm excited to see how they work!

irok · 05-01-2009, 10:38 PM

very impressive climb

made it look easy
i'll be testing out the rears tomorrow

rentstdi · 05-02-2009, 11:24 AM

This is now on the to get list, alot more simple and cheaper than the actual dig (disconnect, servo, 3rdchannel,.........). Wish i found this earlier

irok · 05-03-2009, 04:06 AM

These rears are the shit

excellent mod 4 the money
the steering radius is alot tighter now,didn't really notice that much help on climbs,but some tricky lines like this seemed a little easier;i'm gonna put the fronts in too and see how that helps.
Hey JH what rubber ya runnin'??

Chisels in the above video. My usual comp tires are Panthers.

does anyone notice how much smoother or less axle slop or gear mesh is with these R&P sets................bob

....

scuzzy51 · 05-03-2009, 09:31 AM

i've had mine in for over a week! these gears are 10 times smoother then the straight cut gears! and i can tell a big difference in climbing and turning.. i have the OD in the front and the UD in the back. i think i like the smoothness of the gears over all. it almost seems to make things easier on my motor (14t mini puller). not as much stall. and seems to get out of binds easier. awesome job axial! now we just need a dual dig transmission!

ArcticRider · 05-03-2009, 04:13 PM

Ordered some gears to underdrive the rear. I'm looking forward to receiving them and testing them.
can't wait!

This thread is pretty much what made me buy them LOL.
