Default Spur gear/cluchbell combos for landslide

what are the possible combinations of spur gears and clutchbells for the landslide for either more speed or more acceleration?

how does the two speed work? It doesn't seem to kick in to the second gear. I know that there is the grub screw inside of it but what do i do to adjust it?

Turning that grub screw in/out will either make second gear kick in sooner/later. Counter clockwise for earlier shifting and clockwise for later shifting. But if you screw it in too far then of course it'll never shift and you'll do one of two things. Either run out of space or over rev your engine and kill it rather quick. My friend did that with his HPI RS4. Now it sits at my house and collects dust. I'm about to buy a new engine for it and clam it as my own. Hahaha

why would you over rev your engine and kill it. It shouldn't be any different from a single speed then if it doesnt' shift. [sm=confused.gif] [sm=confused_smile.gif]

Ok thanx that answers my second question, but what about my first question?

If it's taking too long to shift and the rpm's are screaming, you run the risk of killing the engine.
