Leopard 5692 w/ stock motor mount?

[daravelli]

hey what pinion are you running with the 5692? I have the same motor but all my pinions are 8mm. got me scratching my head for several days, Kershaw Design is completely out of the bore reducer for a while

On the leopard 5692 I'm running Ol' Fart's 7075rc 8mm pinions. As far as the bore reducer for the stock motor from Kershaw... mine was nothing but shreds within 15 seconds running the 980kv on 8s. Get the one from RC Monster. It's solid. I actually have one that I won't be using anymore if you're interested. It's the 8mm-5mm bore reducer. PM me if so.

We make are pinion gears to any size hole, just order some 6's, no "bore reducer" will work right.

this will go into a XBE, your gears on 7075rc is alluminum, will it hold up?

yes, it's a 7075 aluminum pinion gear with a Delrin spur gear. It works fine just don't let it get too hot. I have melted a spur gear before. Run a 10/48 with the stock tires and you will be OK

Thanks for your input, i do see the delrin gears now

I've run Ol'fart's 7075rc pinion and spur gears in my XB-E with both the Leopard 5692 and CC XL2 with the 2028 motor without any problems.
