Alright guys, I have been listening to you who would like a lower over all ratio. Right now with stock gearing you are 55.55:1. I have been testing some gears that have my crawler at 77.77:1 right now. The new spur is plastic with a brass hub so gear wear is something I am looking at. Also, heat issues are being looked at also. Hopefully, this will open up a greater gear selection for you guys and make it easier to tune the Losi MOA to your driving style and terrain.

By the way, at 77:1, I am having a hard time getting much stalling. Just thought you would like to know. I will try to get some video up tonight

Damn good news!

Thanks Gerame!

Raney120 · 10-30-2009, 04:29 PM

This might push me over the edge to go MOA!

stediju · 10-30-2009, 05:27 PM

When can we get the update on Version 1.1 ?

Jeepial · 10-30-2009, 05:29 PM

Be good to have that gear set up for sure.

kasper · 10-30-2009, 09:39 PM

Keep up the great work i like my kit but i would like to try that ratio i will be keeping my eye on this thread.

Eritex Inc. · 10-30-2009, 10:03 PM

I have noticed something that Mike Poulson posted. At 77:1, I see little to no loss in wheel speed.

catpwred · 10-30-2009, 10:42 PM

that would be awsome to keep my wheel speed and get rid of the stall the best of both worlds right there

frdtrkguy · 10-30-2009, 11:19 PM

Exactly what I need, Thanks for listening Eritex

Why not contract RR to make the spur in steel 48pitch? Cost?

pink_sleeve · 11-01-2009, 08:13 PM

Will the price remain the same and how soon will they start shipping?

Yes, and I am working towards better gear wear. I do not have a problem replacing my pinions ever 10 to 18 hours of running, but some do.

Werty Made · 11-01-2009, 08:53 PM

Now it mite be worth the price of admission having the lower ratio. Would it be a simple gear swap for the guys that bought the older kits?

I dont have a problem with that, 10 hours is alot of stick time..

Did you mean 48 pitch or are the new lower gears still gonna be 32 pitch? I really need the lower gear running the HH 500 cobalts.

Eritex Inc. · 11-01-2009, 09:27 PM

Yes, the 77.7:1 spur gear is 32p.

boosted4lyf · 11-02-2009, 12:12 AM

Can't say I'm gonna go with the new gears...yet. I love the friggin kit.I dove have a small question though I don't really epxerience any stall anymore I'm runnin a sidewinder 35t integys 8t in rear stock in front and upgraded my bett to a 2250mah 30c 3s the helped a ton. But I've noticed when I'm BARELY on the throttle tryin to finesse around or down something my rear starts turning first untill I give it a little more throttle. Just wonderin if ya had any advise thanks guys.not trying to hijack the post just curious

THat is the down side of running a smaller pinion in the rear.

boosted4lyf · 11-02-2009, 12:19 AM

Good enough for me it hasn't hindered the performance at all thanks man

frdtrkguy · 11-03-2009, 02:32 PM
