RC10T2 Basher

Yikes I don’t even like running high voltage 1/8 monster trucks on grass…. You can almost feel the drag being imposed on it.

I don't have a lot of places to drive so I am hoping to make grass work. I have a 32 pitch spur and pinion on the way.

So the new gears came today.
54 tooth spur and a 13t pinion. I also added got the proper 3/16" 4-40 bhcs for the spur hold down. I was thinking that maybe at high speeds the spur could wobble.

I'm pretty happy with the proTek pinion packaging . It came with a shaft reducer and a piece of paper for setting mesh. It could have only been better if they included an L key for the set screw.

It's smooth as can be expected on grass. I set the throttle end point to %60. It's just to fast for the size of land I have.

Between traffic I took it out to the street and let the throttle go full out. It's fast, even at this gearing.

It stayed completely cool for the whole run, even though the grass. So I think I have finally made my T2 as good as an RTR Rustler.
