Hey Guys, A few weeks back someone posted a link to a site selling "hardened" Mod1 Gears with a 5MM hole.

Anyone know where that is, or the name of the site???

I tried to search but it won't work, and well I don't want dig through dozens of pages today.

Thanks Guys!

Mid way down:

5mm bore, mod1 pitch pinion

Use these pinions on your motors that come equipped with a 5mm shaft. Excellent for use on the ofna spus gears used on the strobe slipper assembly. Not recommended for use on metal spur gears.

Great, Thanks Sir!

Anyone else?? there was another company that had "hardened" gears that you could use with metal spur gears.

That's it, thanks DUSTER!

Lito, no, we're not going to bring the buggy this year. I'm brining back the same car I ran last time, with more batteries... :) I'm simply hoping to improve a little bit over my "one run" I had.

Charlie, what car? The one running the 4.5R on 4s lipo or 12 cells or whatever?

And uhh....what do you need mod1 pinions for, eh?;)

Does this mean novak plans to release a HV motor with a thicker shaft? :roll2:Because the one in my 1/8 buggy just snapped off. 3 runs only and no big jumps.

That's one reason why we've been saying the Novak HV motors aren't suited for use in 1/8 scale :(.
