Need Help With Gearing Mardave Brushless and 27t Motor

Post by MeBeMikey »

What gearing are you guys running out there? I just got the Mardave Brushless Systemand a Reedy Stock Star 27t motor for the standard class. I would like to know how to gear them both. I have always been racing a G2 motor in the standard class not knowing I could also run a 27t motor.

Any help is greatly appreciated as I have been told conflicting numbers.

See you guys this Saturday! :D

Hi Michael

This probably won't help, but I gear my 27t stock motor the same as my G2, and just adjust one pinion either way as fine adjustment, depending on how its running and the track.

Seams Reasonable. Whats the worst that can happen either its a bit slow and cool or still a bit slow and hot, the beauty of 27t stock with 4 cells is their virtually indestructible, I havent been able to cook one yet, a light skin is the worst case senario.
