Default Transmissions?

What is everyone using as a transmission? Looking to do a build and do not think my servo transmissions will be enough.

Not enough what? Servos have high gear reduction and if you get metal gears they should be plenty strong.
Otherwise any of the 1/24 crawlers with a losi micro style transmission should be fine. Another option is a geared motor like a sumo or what's used for a 1/10 winch.

Aren’t the micro Losi trannies geared taller for the work gear axles? Whereas the Redcat Sumo axles are R&P?

I should have said what axles i will be using. I am using losi micro trail trekker axles witch are worm gear drive so with a servo it is super super slow and if i glue the two middle gears together I get a lot more speed but barely any torque.
