So I just got a new pinion gear set 4pcs 48P Pinion Gear 3.175mm Set Hardened 20T 21T 22T 23T 48DP Pitch Gears RC Upgrade Part with Screwdriver https://a.co/d/evuzxrG And I installed the 23t one. I put it in and realized the teeth were a bit shorter than the stock aluminum one? So I tried the 22t position on the motor mount. It fit but was slipping a bit when there was some weight on the wheels. So then I put it to the 21t one and it fit great. BUT....when I started running it a bit, it sounded kinda weird. Maybe like it was meshing TOO tight with the spur gear? Maybe im just freaking out, and Im not used to a steel pinion? Im not really sure and dont really want to have to buy another pinion to replace the stock one (already starting to wear out a little). And thoughts and insight are much appreciated

Hello! So Ive been told the pinion gear on tamiya kits are made of soft aluminum. My TT02 kit has yet to arrive. I was starting to look into buying another pinion and then came across an older thread...someone said this.... "The TT-02 comes with a sturdy steel pinion right from the start, unlike other Tamiya kits where an aluminum pinion is supplies." Is this true for TT02s? Im trying to build my TT02 (my first rc kit, ever) on a budget and dont want to spend too much on upgrades, repairs, etc. Any insight is much appreciated!

See many posts now where Steel Pinion is among the Hop-Ups, so far i avoided learning about Pinion & gears as it very fast gets advanced and its not the most important thing to know about RC so i learnt other things first. So basic stuff first please, why would i change to steel pinion and what must i check to order same pinion as i use other than how many T(eeth) it have?,

Hi, I am going to build a new dt-03 and use a 13.5t brushless motor. I would like to tune this buggy to the max! I read a few great threads on it but am a little confused by pinion gears. Ideally I would like to use a Robinson Racing pinion gear, as I have used them before on my Sand Scorcher and they worked really well. But how do I know how many teeth to choose? I am thinking about a 17t one for my motor but only because it was something I picked up in a random thread. I would like to know how you actually choose? I will be using the car for amateur racing with my kids and bashing around in fields. Once I know how many teeth what are the correct specs of the gears in the DT03? After reading these two threads I am really confused: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=74105 http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=73604 Thanks!!!
