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.

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.

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.

I ran an 88/13 I think.

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

Here is a 90.

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!
