Depends on the motor what motor are you going to run ?
Stock 27turn is about 6.5 ish
Brushless 13.5 is around the 4.5 mark
Brushless 10.5 is around the 4.9 mark
Can't remember what is about right for 19turn ????? _________________ Sponsored By Demon Power Products & Schumacher UK

If your internal ratio is 1.7, as we discussed on Sunday, then you've got a FDR of 5.1 using the 84 spur and 28 pinion.
To get closer to the FDR most use for 13.5 around Coastal (4.5) then you could instal a 75 spur with the 28 pinion, or put a 31 pinion with the 84 spur. This then gives you 4.55 or 4.60 respectively. _________________ Sponsored by - Mastercard |

Sorry to appear pedantic, but what does 'quite hot' mean?
At the next meeting whatever ratio you are running, get it out on the track for a few minutes, then bring it back in and we'll measure the temperature with a digital thermometer to get an accurate reading and work out from there what gearing to go to. _________________ Sponsored by - Mastercard |

It was as Hot as you would want a Brushless to get !!!! It could of been undergeared or maybe the old 1Star motors need different gearing to our modern 13.5 's do .............
Id agree with Ian go with the pinion I told you to go with the 31 / 80 combo and try it for 2 and a half mins , check temp
