| Spur gear recommendation.
How big of a spur gear do you guys recommend on a Wraith? I'll be strictly crawling. With a 13t Crawlmaster motor on 3s?

I fit a 64 tooth Axial Yeti spur. I had to trim the cover a little bit for it to clear the driveshaft.

| Re: Spur gear recommendation. Too high for crawling. The stock Spawn kit spur (32P) is 56t, I have a 9T pinion and frankly I'd go even lower for strict crawling with the 35T cheapo motor I use. Not sure how that compares to the Crawlmaster but maybe fitting that bigger spur Brake Weight mentions would get you closer to the sweet spot. |

Brake Weight already helped me with this SAME situation! His recommendation is a really good one, as long as you're running a low-mid kv Brushless and/or a 3S Lipo.... That's the thing, different setups, different tuning. I'm running OLD School NiMh Batteries!! and a HH TorqueMaster Pro Handwound 35 Turn Motor. I found (with help) that 60/10 put my right where I needed to be! Good, Slow Speed control, lots of Torque. Fast enough for this old Fart to walk with it!! If I want more Speed, I'd STILL go with NiMh! 8 or 9 Cell.... ..... Those are two examples of near each end of the Power Spectrum. Not to be confusing, but Tire Size comes into play also. If you're rolling on 5-1/2" Tires or larger, maybe 64 Tooth Spur would be better for Crawling. Have fun!! |
