Hi guys.

I need info on what pinion to go for?

I'm using a 5.5t orca brushless system. YES i know 5.5t is a lot of power,but ive turned ALL the settings down to the lowest.

I'm using the standard b4.1 factory team spur gear which i think is 81t?

Thanks.

Do you still get plenty of speed + does the motor stay cooler now?

btw what motor and esc you running?

Thanks

8.5T ,seems like a more sensible choice.

I Think the 5.5T is a bit of a overkill.
