32P gears- education

[MSB]

so I've done a few searches and mods move this if necessary, but its going in a wheely king, so i figured i would try it here first. right now i'm running the stock trans with a 96t spur and 15t pinion on 2.2 maxx mashers and it just isn't slow enough. i know most people have run a 76/10ish combo with 32p gears, so i guess my question is how do you transfer the 48 to 32p ratios? (ie. what would they be equivilent to in 48p terms?) also, what 32p gears work/do you recommend? or what is the lowest you can go and still use the stock trans?

clear as mud?

I run a 32 pitch - 72 tooth spur with a 9 tooth pinion. Seems to be just a little slower than the 96/15--48 pitch. But with running brushless Hyperion Z 3013 motor I have had no problems with spur or pinion gears.

tooth count is tooth count regardless of the pitch. jia's dad mentioned 9/72 gearing and 15/96. those would equal 8:1 and 6.4:1

what the biggest spur gear that fits the WK in 32p?

My suggestion rather than trying to gear the heck out of it would be to add a higher turn motor. I am not sure what your running now but a 45T, 55T, or even a 65T motor would help tremendously.
