witch is the new version pin or square?

[Guest]

I am glad to hear that. I'm going to look at the Dune Runners and see if they have changed also.

your buddy might try the belt drive setup since he has square drive setup he can use the cheaper kit because he shouldn't need the one that comes with gear plate.

1:1 is a little low gearing. We run on and off road. He got 31 and 29 tooth for $46 shipped.

That depends on your application, tire size, motor choice. You won't run out of rpms on a 1:1 with most motors. I could not tell a difference in top speed with the 1:1 compared to 31-29 gearing. It did not show a higher rpm reading either.

Also keep in mind the C & D gears come 24-26 which steps the ratio down again.

My MT which I got before the new year also came with square drive.

Yep it is official. I paid Redcat a visit. All the new MTs and Dune Runners are now coming in with the same square drive system as the X-series cars.

I havent had any issues with the 4 pin style.

Heyyy, I've come full circle

My MT was square drive 3 years ago when I bought it.

I hate the 4 pin setup. I was never able to keep the pin in the aluminum gear holders. I got the square drive gearplate just need the rest to switch. I wish I would have waited to get the mt now as the square drives are a lot nicer

Did it come with metal gears and a metal gear plate. A couple years ago there could have been a few V2s left. The V2 had the square drives.

I got my MT 3 years ago just when the v3 was released ...plastic gears and square drive...for the next 6 months to year all MTs had this setup...

[Guest]

Do you have the droop tabs on the chassis under the lower suspension arms. If yes, then you have the V3.
