Ed, did you think about getting the right ratio on the front drive train?

Yes, I think it may have been solved. By adding a Kyosho gear from this gear set (or similar) I think I can get a reasonable drive ratio at the front.

But although I've been watching this for months I haven't got round to buying it as my paypal doesn't work. :cry: However Mr.ED might be hooking me up with a used one to try out...

just noticed your pic is for a different car than my gear is of: I got an optima gear, not gallop.
Teethcount may be different but module should be the same.
To make it really work you'll need a bigger gear at the front, AND a bigger gear on the outside at the center axle.

Yep I know all this :wink: But I just want try out a Kyosho chain gear to see if the tooth pitch from the Yoke matches the Kyosho stuff and if so then I can think about the solution further...

I have posted this question in the general forum.

Hi my name is Mike and I'm a Chromaholic, my wheels have been chrome free for over a year, thanks to everyone that made fun of them.

The older I get , the faster I was.
