Also I have to mention the 3:1 gear reduction. This really is a must have. The increase in torque is something you really need to experience to appreciate. No stalling, no jerking around, just a steady pull that gives the tank the right feel, as it climbs and plows through stuff.
I used old Cox slot car gears(sidewinder gear and a pinion gear mated together) and added the extra gear on my standard Heng Long gear boxes to give me the 3:1 ratio. Someone on this forum did a thread on the concept, and I used that as a guide when I fashioned my own.
Happy tanking
YHR,
PLease post your mods on the gearbox again, it sounds like you have a new way to do it????? I will be honest when you describbed how you did it above I was a deer looking at a Semi coming! I know this is the way to go with the gear reduction, I bought 2 sets from Willy and I love them, but that gets exspensive fast!!!
