Here's a link to all the trans photos. I'll post the small ones. I guess a couple are to big to be veiwed by some? Here's some of the second set I took. Hope it helps.

Idealy you'd want them to be at 1/3 intervals from eachother so that when everything is rotating is doesn't wobble from the weight difference... but honestly I don't really think that it matters.

1st off thanks all.. just trying to help. The thing about the grub screws is that the flats they're supposed to sit in are in line on the shaft. If you have 1 that's not inline it's probably not tightened on the flat of the shaft. If you've used Blue Locktite on it and tightened it well it MAY not move. If it does slip though it'll spin on the shaft and ruin it.

Status: offline 		Nitro Steve has a really gppd pic of the gear mesh on the first page. They should mesh full depth. When you move the car backwards the gears and clutchbell should spin free for a few turns after the car stops moving. It's easier to check the mesh with the top plate and tank removed. A sheet of paper should fit in the gears. Everyone should watch the video on this link. This is how HPI recomends setting the mesh on the Sav X. It works for the Redcats too... http://www.hpiracing.com/kits/updates.php?partNo=858
