mini-t pinion and spur gears
I am currently running a trinty monster motor on my mini-t and I just stripped out the pinion gear all the motor does is just spin inside of the pinion, does anyone know what type of pinion to get... also would I be able to use a rc18 or any other mini's pinion?

RE: mini-t pinion and spur gears
Try getting a metal pinion, they work well.. But if not meshed correctly, you will strip your spur gear. (if its still plastic)
Is the gear actually stripped? or is the pinion no longer sticking to the motor shaft? If the motor shaft is just spinning INSIDE the pinion then you can add a drop of CA glue on the tip and that should do the trick

RE: mini-t pinion and spur gears
it was spinning inside the pinion but I turned it backwards and it works fine now...but when I was running it I broke the upper and lower front piece (it slammed into a curb[:@]) I got it torn down now and hopefully get it fixed soon...
