LEE69 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 been looking at This says its made of Derlin, super light weight, durable and precise for replacing the stock plastic frigile main gear. Delrin as known as plastic steel, it looks like its a plastic but in fact its alot durable than the stock main gear. as any one used them.

Big T Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 You shouldn't need anything but the standard stuff LEE, you obviously know your stuff with RC's so you will no doubt set it up properly and wont break it. If it's not set up right then that stronger ones wont help (you can see the damage I did to a titanium one). What ratio are you going for?

LEE69 Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 thinking 15/49 or 15/51 the 51 is on it now (for others). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 not really sure for the 25 because on the 4.6 i have got a 47 so i would of thought a 49 should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEE69 Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 I'll try a 15/49 see how it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 for some reason i keep melting the middle out of my spur gear but i was havin a chat with the guys at my lhs and they lock there spur gear by doing up the nut all the way and stopping the slipper clutch from working so im gonna give that a go, just hope it does not damage the diff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 no worries if it survives the battering im gonna give it on Suday i will let you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEE69 Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 Did it survive mate? Got my new bits now to repair mine,so was wondering..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 yeah well it died in the end but i would of expected that after what it went through. lasted alot longer though and had alot less problems so i think im gonna do that all the time now. i am gonna keep using the 47 tooth spur gear aswell because that seemed better. another thing i noticed im not sure if it is hpi who put the price up but a spur gear now costs me £6 instead of £4.50 so i think i am gonna keep buyin them from JeSpares (found on ebay) because he only charges £8 for 2 posted and they turn up next day.

LEE69 Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 Still £4,50 around here or £3.99 with free pp of nitro-rc-uk (ebay) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEE69 Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 Got it all going lovely again,i had forgot to put the bearing into the new spur gear Got a question about the clutch slipper pad...is it supposed to be stuck to the spur gear or just "trapped" there?

Mel Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 it sticks to the spur gear when you take the sheet off the back of the slipper pad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
