Has anybody used the delrin spur gear from 7075? Is it quieter? The 7075 products look fantastic but i could not find any info on the gear advantages.


What brand of bearing is everyone buying?


Thanks for answering my questions!

Why are the wheel adapters no good?

I think the redcat wheels are great. Is there a problem with them that I don't know about? Ihave not had mine long enough to hurt one yet.
The wheels and tires are actually okay. The problem is the stock foams in the tires turn to dust in no time and make them unusable. The adapters also open up a huge selection of aftermarket wheels and tires.

Just don't let it get hot, it will melt. Keep a fan on you motor and don't run

super tall gears.
