thx for the video now i do know what does the reverse do in my controller im not sure did it hear good the gearing but i think at its fine if i dont hit 0-100 full power then im fine so i need be careful next time when i go drive it at i dont broke it motor has too much juice
I just installed a metal spur gear and I’ve done the paper method and it’s very noisy regardless where I set it. Just wondering if it’s normal for metal spur gears. It seems like a metal gear likes to be a little tighter. I pull the paper out and it does not rip.
Metal spur with a metal pinion will be noisy if you are used to plastic. Just no way around it. Occasionally i use ptfe lube with metal on metals which helps a little. You dont want to use anything that will collect dirt like grease or oils. The good news about metal and metal is if your mesh is wrong you usually know it just by looking. Metal shavings will collect around the motor and gears. Plastic spurs mostly just deform and melt a little. Metal “chisels” and your left with real fine shavings that look like shiny dust. If you have that, your getting wear and will want examine your mesh.
On paper…every run. There is always the possibility of things moving and changing, especially if ur hard bashing and jumping. But reality…I check maybe every 3-4 runs. You can feel and hear when things move enough to be major concern and you can see wear on the gears…. and I do at least look things over every run typically.
No need to oil or grease these gears. Could collect dirt and grime which could effect the gears but likely not. Just will make a mess throwing it all over.
4:30 thats a bullshit method that depends on a lot of things the biggest being how strong your motor (magnets) are and how quick you pull it , oh and what kind of paper. 4:56 not a flick but yes thats the best way.
I just cram a penny in the fuse box and it works fine. Fuses are like unicorns, they don't really have a place in this world. Nobody needs fuses or a fuse box, they're just a made-up product to spend money on and pretend that they're safer than just cramming pennies into fuse boxes. I've been doing it for years and have only burned down one car. Those numbers don't lie. One car in 15+ years? That's a 90% success rate with the penny method. Stop wasting money on fuses and cram a penny in there instead. I guarantee you will only be unhappy less than 10% of the time. Numbers don't fudge sickle.
Clear and concise explanation .
Pretty sure that’s a better way to explain the birds and the bees. When I talk to my kid about getting some I’m gonna use this video🤣🤣🤣💯
Great video fellow Coloradan!

What amazing explanation about, thank you my friend!
Hope it helps
been doing the paper method since my nitro days, haven't changed anything since going electric
It’s tried and true. Works well.
Thanks for the help
you are really good and have alot of patience it seems
Good class. I go buy fill soound an site. An ur correct ur listing for your clicking sound. Also when u run your rig listen to your gears

How often should we check our backlash? Every run every other run?

Thx man!
Dothey need to be oiled?
