I want to go faster

[maxPOWAAA]

I want to go faster. I am running a hobbywing sc8 120a 4000k esc/motor with gearing 64/16. I have a 3s 90c battery. I also run an open rear diff. What's the best way to do this?


Smaller spur
Larger pinion
4s

With no concern for temps, durability, or driveability...60t or lower spur. 18-20t pinion, overdrive gears for both front & rear.

Got more $ and patience than me to be straight replacing parts, esc, and motor.

I run the same combo, but with a 19t pinion..

do you run the 19 with the stock 64 spur?

I run 18t pinion gear with the same set up . stock spur on 3s . 4s with this set up would be to much .

 

[Tommy23490]

do you run the 19 with the stock 64 spur?

Yes..

your running the 43/13 ring & pinion to right ?

If you install the Axial 2 speed with optional high gear you will gain about 4 mph. Do you know how fast it is going now?

Gps says it's going 28-30mph now. I think I'd like to take it to the high 30s or 40

Thats strange, considering you run a 4000kv motor. The stock with 3150kv motor is supposed to go 30mph too ?

What tires are you running? Going from a 5.5 in tire to a 5.75 is good for another 2 mph or so.
