RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Hi Anyone got MOABs on your truck.
Did you change gearing for that. If so, what pinion/spur combination.?
Stock tyre's perimeter is 32 Cm.
Moab is 40 cm.

19 X 32 / 40 = 15. So, a 15T...

Would do.
I use a syringe to apply grease.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Forget all settings.
Just start lubricating the diff shafts and rear axle on both ends of dog bones.
You are running them dry.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

I am from India and I usually get parts from towerhobbies.com or omnimodels.com
They are basically the same.
Tower offers more discounts
Omni offers cheaper shipping.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Do you use paper technique to adjust the gap between pinion and spur.
It really works well.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Well, 31 T pinion ... will it fit. I doubt.
How did you arrive at a figure of 31.
Per calculations, 19T is the optimum setup.
Go up or down couple of teeth for speed or torque.
Keep watching...

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Consider 1) increasing wheel base of your setup, 2) have a stiffer differential.

Practice smoother inputs, atleast when you are negotiating turns.

If you are worried about number of cells, it'll take 7 C Sub C in stick or side by side configuration.
No hump packs with default battery retainer.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Torque is for acceleration ... 23T has more torque than 15T
So prabably a higher acceleration was confused with 'FAST' :-;

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Stability was never an issue... but I feel its better in a way that from turns, egress is faster. However, for ingress, using drag brakes just before turning gives better steering response.
