Default Gear Ratio..

I want to determine my final drive ratio on my TLT. I have found some calculators on the net but they are all for larger multiple gear transmissions. What is the TLT axle ring and pinion gear ratio?

Ya I searched a little more and found some good start numbers and the formula. If I did it right my final drive should be @ 81.98 which seem REALLY low.

Losi XXX trans: 4.11/1
Spur gear: 90t
pinion gear: 12t
tlt axles: 2.66/1

thats what i used for calulating. look right?

I don't feel like doing math, but I can tell you that you're at a good starting point, maybe a little slow, but the final tweaking will be just a few teeth on the pinion gear. Like up to a 16 or 17 tooth or so.
