Mar 26, 2023 · Let's learn about gear ratios and explore the different gear sets of the Tamiya Mini 4WD PRO. How do we apply the ratios to the speed and torque of the wheel? Gear Ratio is simply the number of teeth on the driver gear (the pinion gear) compared with the number of teeth on the driven gear.

Mini 4WD is a challenging pastime with almost limitless potential for upgrading and modifying your car. Check out this handy guide for some hints and pointers that could help you get on the top step of the podium! Let’s build the Mini 4WD MA chassis!

Aug 14, 2023 · If there is a track with 95% curves, slopes, and banks, it might be worth to use a higher gear, but most of the time 3.5 still edges out faster in a generic track layout, with 3.7 being an easy to switch alternative.

※11 These gears are also paired in Item 15355 Mini 4WD PRO High Speed Gear Set (for MS Chassis/Gear Ratio 4:1). ※12 Crown gears in Item 15438 Reinforced Gears w/Easy Locking Gear Cover are identical to G13.

The right gearing combination can significantly influence the speed, acceleration and overall handling of a Mini 4WD, making it essential for racers to understand and adjust their gear setups to match the track conditions and racing strategy.

One of the more difficult things to figure out is what gearing to use on your current track. Here is a simple chart that will show you a bit more information on what gearing could be used for the best results. This chart shows motor specification from values at recommend torque loads.

Which is the best gear set (4:1, 3.7:1 and 3.5:1) for the Tamiya Mini 4WD Hyper-Dash PRO motor. How do they affect speed and acceleration? Let’s do some experiments to find out.

※9 These gears are also paired in Item 15349 Mini 4WD PRO Super Speed Gear Set (for MS Chassis).

Mar 2, 2018 · Motor and gear Depending on track type, if it is a: – Technical with few jumps and etc. (Lots of long straights) You can use a high speed gear ratio 3:5:1/3:7:1 with speed motors like Atomic Tuned ->Light Dash -> Hyper Dash -> Sprint dash And etc. – Technical track (Tight corners, lots of wave, lots of jump)

Sep 18, 2019 · For cars based on the AR, FM-A, Super-II and other prop shaft based cars, there are excellent gear sets available, that give you the full range of gear ratios for the chassis, re-enforced pinions and crown gears, a light weight prop shaft, low friction counter gear shaft and counter gear bearing.
