Default TB-03D Gearing Help

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; ">I just installed a Novak Ballistic 3S 8.5T 5000KV brushless system in my TB-03D. It is a little slow at start up and I thought it was suppose to be like that.

I played with my Sprint 2 recently and it has a Orion Orbital 13T Modified Motor and Tazer 12T ESC and I had a blast. Smooth, torque, awesome. A dream to drift/race with.

I read the manuel and it said you must change the pinion gear or I'll have a slow sloppy start and it'll run hotter(Like it does now). It gave some pinion teeth numbers though. Not sure what to choose or where to get it.

I don't have to change the Spur Gear right? What pinion gear for my motor should I get for the TB-03D to optimize it? Where to get it?


Also, after playing with my Sprint 2 I almost went back to brush motors. I am new to Brushless Systems still. The Orion was awesome, I want my TB-03D to have that feeling of torque, smoothness and not running hot. Also my brush has 0 glitches.

Let me hear your thoughts.</span>
