Pinion for mcpX BL conversion

[Bhujang]

Hello

i have put an add in the wanted but maybe more people will see this here.

I'm in need of a 1.5mm bore 8 tooth pinion 0.30 Mod or a few can anyone help? Do any shops in the UK sell them? Or does anyone have a spare one they are happy to sell me?

best wishes

Can't you get a larger main gear? 8 teeth is very small for a pinion. The contact area is small, the angle of attack of the teeth is large so it becomes inefficient and prone to wear.
In my days of racing various model cars I have always regarded 9 teeth as a minimum size.

8t is what I need. I will experience some bogging with a 9t, this is for a mcpX BL conversion not a rc racing car it ha the new 1.5mm shaft which is making it harder to find...

Thanks for your reply though..

Maybe some shops out there who view here have them or someone might know of a shop in the UK that sells them? I can find them in Poland and the US!

Also I've not seen a larger main gear available for the mcpX. But I know the 8t mod 0.5 1.5mm pinions are out there
