Hi All, new to all this RC stuff and it a bloody minefield. I got a cheap RC car for my little one that broke on the first day, so i decided to invest a little more and got a brushed FTX Outlaw. Now ive taken over as i have realised you can mod these things ...ooops !
I have installed a GoolRC 3900KV motor running on Lipo 2's. Now the little one is not allowed to use it unsupervised as its crazy fast !
I have a problem however that i hope someone can point me in the right direction. I purchased two motors, one went missing in the post so i hastily got another one (only for them both to arrive at the same time) but had not realized it had a 5mm shaft and not a 3.175mm shaft.
1. Is there a way to reduce the shaft ( as it is removable ) ?
2. Is there a way to replace the 17t pinion to one with a 5mm hole still keeping the O/D of the gear ?
3. Shall i simply bore the hole of the gear to suit the 5mm shaft ?
Please dont flame me too much guys !
