I'm running a stock 27T motor with stock gears in my SCX10. What is my best option to get more speed out of it? I'm looking to go with a 20T motor, so i don't have to change my ESC. Or just leave the 27T in and change gears?

The 27 turn would work just fine just go up teeth on the pinion gear but you may lose a little torque.
Swapping to the 20T will definitely work too. I would up the teeth and see if you like it then if it doesn't work for what you want change the motor. Hope that helps.
Yeah I would recommend the gearing change as well..The stock Axial ESC can handle some shiznit, especially with a BEC correctly installed/setup. I have found a perfect combination of wheel speed and torque with the Titan 12T ($16), but it is used for higher speed applications which causes it to get rather warm on low speed crawlin!

Thanks I will try different gears first then go from there.
Get this back on track. It is almost ready for water just a few things for the electronics like the ESC connectors need to drop a size and holes need to be cut in the hull for water cooling fittings. Also need to cut the acrylic to size for the hatch seal than float test it and see if she is water tight.

Finished up the 2nd boat this week...going up to the Chimney Rock, NC area with family this weekend. I should get some time in the rapids with it and with the crawlers as well...of course I'll try to keep them away from the rapids :shock:

The DD works good as a boat! But I think that voids the warranty according to Yoshiaki.

That was one of the craziest things I had ever seen.....I wonder if you could have almost propelled yourself to the side and continued driving so you wouldn't have to take a penalty :shock::shock: That would have been nutz!!

OK After some problems with Fulll_Throttle with getting my custom seats done. I decided to try my own. so here is my first 2 seats....
Not too bad. Need to work on the belt openings alittle. But, they will only get better from here on out! Next, on to the harness.

One does not understand what your quite asking? The stock WB8's or aftermarket driveshafts? Correct info and punctuation goes a long way here on the forums! "thumbsup"

few to many beers i would say lol. yes aftermarket driveshafts that will fit on the honcho, the shafts i have are junk. Im looking to buy better driveshafts and seeing if anyone here has some cheaper than retail.
Oh that makes sense now lol..Well surprisingly I still run my stock WB8's & have managed to only snap or twist 2 in the a few months. I have some replacement stuff for those if you need! Other than that I would look into RPPhobby.com or somewhere like that. Goodluck, hope u can make the Event!
