I'm thinking about changing out my Tekin Redline 13.5t motor for a Tekin T8 1350kv that I just acquired:shock: This is going to be put into White Lightning (Southern Buggy) so I am not super concerned about the interior mods to fit this 1:8 scale motor since there is no interior yet.
Anyhow, already have a Robinson GEN3 Slipper Unit (48p 80t spur gear) and don't have the money to change it out, so keep that in mind. My question (finally) is what pinion should I get? Robinson Racing makes Hard 48 Pitch Brushless Motor Pinions (Fits 5 mm motor shaft as the T8 is 5mm) with sizes ranging from 17t - 45t (<--- 45t pinion... WTF! :lmao With 13.5t Redline, I am currently running a 20t pinion with great success. I know that I should go to a 32p spur and pinion combo, but I'll have to save up for that. In the meantime, I'll just have to use throttle control"thumbsup"
On a different note... I am running a Venom 2100 mA 20c battery with the Redline. If I change to the T8, should i run another 2100 mA 20c battery (I have a second already) in parallel to double the 20c ---> 40c? Or does this matter since it is a low kv motor?
