How do you set proper gear mesh? 🤔

Just like you did!

@ricksprings 3 года назад

I cut piece of paper & insert between pinion and spur gears. When I thread lock & torque motor mount screw paper sets up perfect gap.

I usually check mesh by the spur gear - I think more precise option PS - motor was connected the same as android Valter/David repaired:D

I have this same setup on my Typhon TLR tuned and it's as bullet proof as the Typhon. I have it geared 2 to 1 so it runs kinda hot but I give it breaks to cool down sometimes but that's it. Blast through water, mud, fine powdery dust then water. It doesn't even skip a beat.

@franciscoduran3688 2 года назад

Hi 3 Sons RC, I´m thinking to buy an used but almost new EXB with Spektrum (Firma) 160A Smart ESC and Firma 1100kV Motor (5687 size). Your Motor has more RPM but has maybe less torque? The seller has 30/35/40t pinions in his offer. That should be quite powerfull? What do you think? Till now I have only ridden 1/10s 2wd and 4wd. 3S-5S...

With a 22t I manage to pop wheelies. In a short course truck!! I would recommend Scorched Parts wheel fenders with Arrmas front dirt guards. The centre stays clean even in the dirt. It can block cooling, so a better ESC fan and one for the motor may be a good idea if the guards are fitted

@@leo0528 Any power system will get hot regardless of gearing if it's ran hard and consistently and in warmer weather. For me it's fine for average bashing! However I have the Scorched Parts fenders on mine which can block air flow, so I fitted a 40mm fan on the motor

@maxcurry9667 2 года назад

Just a side note on the esc install. You can trace the bottom of the esc onto a thin piece of paper. Then flip the esc over and use the square you just cut out to poke holes through the paper where the mounting holes are on the bottom of the esc. Then use the paper to locate the position of the esc onto the esc mounting plate and mark where the holes are. Then drill the holes. Now you can mount the esc with screws. Feel free to use some double sided tape in there as well. This holds up better than just tape itself. Double side note. The supplied plastic esc mount is pretty weak and breaks easy. Get the m2c mount.

I have a new Max 8 n my Fireteam & it’s installed just like yours but no matter what I do I get no response when connected to a battery. My guess is it’s the receiver which is the original with Stock Spectrum controller not bound to the new esc. It’s just been sitting.

@TheRCNetwork Год назад

Likely the receiver/radio. You may want to re-bind the receiver to the radio, then check all receiver wires (one to turn, two to burn) along with polarity.

@RcOffroad9513 3 года назад

I used to test mesh on 1/8 buggy by sound and feel, but I always went too loose and would get excessive wear on the pinion, I have stopped that method and use the paper trick. I haven't had any mesh issues since. Or heavy wear like I've seen so many times. That mesh sounded loose to me, is it mod1 gearing?

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

Yep, Mod 1....and I agree, it can be easily set too loose......but it is a sound and feel that I use for setting mesh. Initially, the sound was loose....but when tightened down, you may have noticed the pitch of the "click" went down...meaning it tightened, just slightly

@robertsoltesz2211 3 года назад

Hi, great vid. Does this ESC works smart like when your truck is in stand still (and you have not used the brake before) you press the throttle forward to initiate reverse then you do not have to do it twice: first brake then reverse but it does it for the first press knowing that as the vehicle is stopped no need for braking? Thanks!

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

Yeah, as long as you go past center on the throttle it will engage the brake. Of course braking power can be controlled via the program card. You can also activate drag brake to instantly engage a slight brake when you take your finger off the throttle. Many racers use this to slow down in turns

@leo0528 3 года назад

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

The Max 6 has the grit needed to move that nearly 20lbs truck. The stock 2050 is decent, but I think the Max 6 has an advantage....especially the 1650kv on 6s. you'll have a ton of bottom end torque

Technically, HW says it's only 6s capable.....but that doesn't mean you can't run 8s with the right gearing. I'm running like a 22/23 right now on 6s, so when I try 8s, I'll likely drop to a 14/15t and watch the temps

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

Hey - I'd clear out that current model's memory and start over. First bind the receiver to the radio, then calibrate the ESC to the radio. Make sure you have the receiver wires plugged in (polarity wise) correct and channel one for steering and channel two for throttle. If no tones for throttle again, you can try reversing channel 2.

@@TheRCNetwork Hi Rich! I wanna buy the new Kraton exb... but im unsure if i just go with the stock 2050kv engine like in the stock Kraton or the max6 combo with 1650kv. Does the Max 6 combo got more Power than the stock 2050kv one? (i want to drive on 6s)

@@leo0528 my friend has one on 6S with a Castle 1515 2200kv and Mamba Monster X and it’s quite a bit an animal. If you give it too much throttle it will instantly flip on it’s lid. Sure it’s not geared stupidly fast, maybe 45-50mph but it’s perfectly fine for bashing imo.

One question what size pinion did you use

@TheRCNetwork 2 года назад

I believe it was a 22t

@AlexM-lc9eb 2 года назад

Hey, nice built! How do you feel about the smaller Max8 2200kv? Would you always prefer the the Max6?

@TheRCNetwork 2 года назад

For the Mojave, the Max 6 is the way to go. Even the Kraton needs the Max6.

I would never put thread locker on the motor plate .. you will be drilling those out as heating it wont work if you plan on using the motor in another rc car / truck.

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

False. I, more than most transfer motors from RC to RC, constantly. I always use a small amount of blue thread lock, a sharp MIP driver and have never had an issue. Ever.

Yep, If you've been watching the channel for a while, I haven't used CC for about 8 years...had SO many issues with them and their terrible with warranty.
