Hello everyone, I'm new around here
I'll give a quick intro first and cut to the chase below.
I got my DT from a garage sale, non running state. The remote was missing, no batteries, questionable electronics, but I decided to put effort in it to have it running again. I modified it to LiPO/brushless combo and not knowing what to expect really I took it to the street to have a test run. I pulled the trigger not expecting too much, but I was REALLY suprised with the result.
That thing can really go! I had to reduce both throttle and acceleration to about a half in order to be manageable and not to destroy the tranny.
So after a couple of broken front shock towers, and making a front wheel-covering fender for it, this happened:
The Chase
a stripped spur gear! Not a biggie, but I'd like to ask you fine gentleman where/what should i get?
I think the current one is stock, pinion gear as well (18t i think). They lasted fine i guess, they were left as is when i rebuilt it, and they weren't in a new condition. I understand that DT shares transmission parts with TA01 chassis? I looked at some spur gears, but the pictures seem not the same as the one i have, so i'm unsure it would all fit.
I think i also need a new pinion gear, the teeth on this one seem a little crooked.
So, any pointers and help are wellcome im a noob with RC cars and it took me sweet time even to figure out what is what and whos who in Tamiya datasheets for discontinued/old models.
Thanks in advance!
