That gear ratio is what I have on my gatekeeper! 78 spur, 25 pinion. Love it.

Grind out the motor plate mounting holes so that you can utilise the smaller pinions. An old rc racing trick from the 80s & 90s - we had to grind out the motor plates to fit huge pinions & small spurs needed for 540 silver can racing.

The motor will contact with the transmission case and since this is a outrunner motor it wouldn't be good. But otherwise i agree.

I like how it has a sway bar and still torque twist or the hole rear end squats at take off. Shows how light the rear suspension is

So glad to see u changed the servo horn! 👋👋👋 Originally, 32 pitch was off-road/nitro. Moving from 32 pitch, to 48p, to 64p (& 78 pitch 20 years ago), the idea was more precise & MORE available gear ratio combinations.

Cool, thanks this vid helps with gearing from my question on your vid yesterday. I really like the ecto looks similar to a scx10 under the body. I'm putting some scx10 parts on the gen7 to help it out nice starting platform the Gen7 is . Won't be much left tho lol.

I honestly never had issues with the 48P gears in my Element. I quite liked it given how smooth the drivetrain was. I even had it under load and it never stripped. One issue I see with the skid is that if it raises the transmission to make it flatter the already severe pinion angle on the front will be worse. Did it raise the transmission?
@shadow7796
@shadow7796 3 жыл бұрын
No, it Lowes it about 2-3mm.
@jonthomas8487

@@shadow7796 then that is a good thing. Rear pinion angle is ok, but the front is quite aggressive so anything to improve that will save driveshaft cups. I’ve been thinking on a V2 builders kit for a C1 build and this seems like a good option considering the new skid and tiny tires

So question why do you have a bec if you’re running a direct powered servo? I know that’s a newbie question but I am pretty new been in the hobby about 6 to 8 months still trying to figure everything out.

The Crawlmaster Mini esc has no internal bec so I have a bec there to run the receiver. I got a cheap one in there now that seems to be doing good.

You can also file down the bottom of the transmission case to bring it down 3mm with no clearance issue’s on the stock skid…

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Ecto but that rig side hill like crap.. I tried the spring mod and it helped a ton, but now it’s to low for my crawling spots and it bellys out all the time. So I’m a little lost on what to do next. Maybe loose the sway bar and put a extra link in and see how that does 🤷🏻‍♂️ But climbing straight up really steep stuff it really does well with out problems. But side hilling just sucks

if you're stripping 48P gears even on a crawler, you need to mesh it properly. never had a problem with 48P on any of my cars, even my drag cars
