BL gearin on stealth???
 
hey guys i need help...
i am running a stealth tranny out of an RC10t (OG) and i have an OG revolver.
i need some gearing suggestions.. i run a 12t pinion and 90 spur and it seems like it doesnt have enough power. it stall out on any ledge face.

Add this upgrade from RPM.

http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXEV49&P=7

It will bring your internal gear ratio to 2.65 to 1.

This is practically the same ratio as the B4/T4.

Then use an 87 spur and a 12 - 15 tooth pinion."thumbsup"

i was hoping i wouldnt have to order more parts....:x
is there something i could be missing in the programing of the esc or something?

You don't have to have the RPM upgrade, but it helps.

Try a 91 spur, it should work well.

The RPM would be a nice upgrade in the future."thumbsup"

i was just tryin to figure it out since i have a comp on sunday.
i know you were running the og stealth w/BL. hell i sold you the stealth, but anyway what gearing did you run?
is it possible my esc might be taking a $h!t on me?

i have hear about the revolver having axle snapping torque, but havent seen it yet.:roll:

I ran an 88/13 I think.

Which Revolver are you running and how many and what type of cells?

Here is a 90.

4stAir 03-16-2007 09:08 PM

well i have an original revolver from holmes.
i have a 7 cell ib pack i am running right now but i also have an 8 cell mini t pack that i usually run. neither one makes a difference. oh and its a mamba 25.

Definetly need to gear it lower.

That was the issue I had w/ the Gen 1 Stealth and the R1.

If you ever decide to sell that motor, I'm interested!

4stAir 03-16-2007 09:13 PM

i think i might keep it....;-)
i will let you know if do decide to sell it.

got her running right now...
i simply swapped esc's and remapped it. i turned my start up speed up to medium wich i think solved alot of it.
