A motor pinion gear should last quite a while, even beyond the life of a motor if you keep it and all your other gears well lubricated. However, if you are always pushing the envelope with motor RPMs, then you might find you will need to replace your motor pinion gear often.
4:07 I meant to also say that once a shaft passes the vertical test, also try angling the shaft checker and dropping the shaft into the shaft checker. Passing a vertical test is easy. Passing an angled test is much harder.
No chassis is the be-all end-all of any class. Many people feel that FM-As are the best or MAs are the best, Some even like AR or S2. Every car, if built the right way, has a chance at winning.
Thank you for the tips! I have a few questions as a newbie, hope you can answer them please 😊 1. Is it normal for the rollers to wobble a little? I've tightened the screw to the point I don't see the screws going down further and stopped, as I'm afraid of stripping the thread. 2. Can we replace the super glue method with loctite? 3. Once we've inserted the wheels or rollers, is it ok to remove them and redo? Will it loosen the threads/hole and become less usable?
Good questions! 1. Yes, it's normal. There's always a little bit of give with the rollers so there will be wobble, however slight. 2. Yes, you can use any glue you want so long as it dries properly. 3. Yes, repeated tightening and loosening of the screws that hold the rollers will weaken the threads/hole and make your car less stable. A tiny drop of superglue in the hole before you reinsert the screw should help.
@@claredin Thank you so much for your reply! 😄 Kinda paranoid now that I realise that I should have bought a proper wheel installer prior to installation, I think I accidentally got some grease on the shaft and the wheel comes off pretty easily 😔
Madam, you can separate them into few explanation videos and shorts. But thanks for the information. You just forgot to explain about dragon series rollers for box stock racers. And please note that battery covers do matter to keep it in place, or just tell the audience to replace it with rubber bands.
hi how often do you change motor pinion gear?

I just baught my 1st unit. Ty for info, a total newbie here
Please make a video for the lane changer setting challenges for box stock since that is one of the most critical parts for box stock races. Thanks
this is so helpful for me who just started my stock class mini 4WD! THANK YOU!
Nice tip for shafts
If I have a bent axle, then I will fix it as best I can.. very useful video
im amazed how small this car yet so technical

Nice❤
informative show ❤
Your torque tuned is way much faster than my Sprint Dash. 😆
I'm confused about how to beat a car with an AR chassis, in the original box chassis class this is very dominant and I don't like it a bit 😂

@claredin I don't understand what you mean about "built right away" do you mean exactly the same as in the manual??
@@bravenz1376 Yes, according to the manual AND with great meticulousness and care.

what do you prefer, FM// FMA or MA//MS chasis
FM-A is my preference :)
