Hi.

Nearly completed my build of the 410r and would like to know which brand of pinion gear will fit correctly.

I have tried a ansmann pinion but it is slightly thinner than the spur gear so thats no good. Also tried a traxxas pinion but doesnt line up correctly even if i turn it around the grub srcew is at the very end of the motor shaft.:confused:

What do i need to get and from where? Looking for 23t

Cheers

James

Be fine if the pinion is narrower than the spur. Just make sure its 48dp and is meshed properly. I use Schumacher Hard Alloy ones which are a tad narrower. Line it up in the middle of the spur.

I use Losi pinions. They are the same width as the spur and lines ups perfect. They also last a long time.
