What is the stock gearing on a Traxxas Slash 2wd?
As mentioned in Part 1, the stock gearing (22-tooth pinion, 76-tooth spur gear) is recommended for 3-cell LiPo power. As an optional step to further safeguard against motor, speed control, and battery heating when using a 3S battery, you can install an 83-tooth spur gear to achieve “lower” gearing.
Which pinion gear is faster?
A bigger pinion or smaller spur gear makes the vehicle have more top speed, at a decrease in acceleration. It’s most likely that gearing up will make everything run a bit hotter, and shorten run times. A smaller pinion or larger spur gear has the opposite effect.
What does 48 pitch gear mean?
When you see 48 or 64 pitch, for example, the number means you can count a certain number of teeth per certain amount of its circumference. So if you have a 48 tooth 48 pitch gear & a 64 tooth 64 pitch gear, both would be the same size in diameter(but that means the 64 pitch gear has smaller, finer teeth).
