Did you have trouble getting your pinion gear on? No matter what I do I can't get any of the gears to fit that Venom sent me. The stock one obviously does, but the other ones are so tight I just can't get a fit

I don't know about the mini giant, but on my micro rs4 to change the pinions there are 2 bolts you loosen to move the engine and make it easier to put the pinion on. That should help if the mini giant is anything at all like the micro rs4.

I got them on, the problem wasn't getting at the motor, it was that the hole in the gears was actually so small I couldn't get it to go on the shaft. I ended up taking some old race tin motors, and useing them and a hammer to stretch the holes a little. Now the gear fits with a lot of force.
