Stock tranny is a good one for crawling and is used by many here on this site. and that crawler is a very good base to begin from. That was my first insperation, and my truck has evolved only a little from that platform.

Would a,9 Tooth Pinion with a 55turn motor be to low for crawling???? I think I'm going to get Axiom motors for it. |

My Son has a TXT 1. He did have the 55t motor and then he went to the 65t. The 55t gave a little more wheel speed but less torque than the 65t. From what I have seen the TXT 1 climb, I would say that either is ok. I suppose its what you feel happy with. Torque or speed. Have you carried out the top ten tips to you TXT 1 ? They do make a big difference Here is the link for you. http://www.rccrawler.com/20txt.htm Last edited by Tronk; 12-31-2006 at 03:50 AM. |

heres what you gotta do: raise the tranny up chop the chassis plates stretch the wheelbase lock the axles with JB Weld get better rims/tires bring the lower links to the top f the axle i ran a gd600 gear reduction unit and 1 stock can and it worked great 2 high torque servos behind the axle steering setup revo shafts |
