Default Flipped tranny noise??

I just flipped my trans with and added a torquemaster motor. I'm getting alot of excesive noise is that normal? The motor is zeroed per directions. .... The gear mesh isn't too tight I put a peice of paper between the gears before I tightend them. nothing seems to be binding.

I'm not sure if the noise is the same as yours, but when I put in my mini-TM motor it seemed liked the motor itself is just a lot louder than the stock one.

i have the same observations with the MTM, it dont bother me until something breaks, which for sure will not be the MTM. its just the nature of the beast. it is not stock, it the MTM

My aftermarket motor is louder also. I've noticed more gear noise also, it may be due to the higher RPM.

i just flipped my tranny and it was making noise, so i switched the throttle to normal, then i messed with the throttle settings on my DX3.0 until the noise stoped. im running stock motor.

I have a flipped tranny as well as the torque master mini. I have also noticed the tmm is louder than the stock motor, but worth it for the major power increase. I have also noticed that my stock esc seems to be dying (hesitation and louder than normal squeeling when throttling) after installing the torque master mini and 2s 1650mah lipo. Anyone else have similar problems?
