For new members who wonder how to have a crawler performance ..

The best way to have power over all four wheels, so your crawler can climb, is to change the gearing to better. ..

See the system .......................

If you do not change these gears, you never will be such a force crawler to climb as a true crawler, it will back the other ..

For your crawler NB you amazed....

FOLLOW THIS WAY .............

The pleasure is to make them better .. After all ..

Have the courage to try your experiences .. :-)

It is a lower gear ratio, meaning that the wheels turn slower, and with more torque. Not better for racing, but exactly what we want for crawling!

By my calculations, my 60 tooth RC18T gear and 8 tooth pinion that I'm waiting for (Flaping 70:1 style) should provide me with a ratio of exactly 68.90625:1

Your extra gear from War Tank lowers the ratio A LOT!!

Your ratio of 184:1 (rounded up as its over 183.5) makes Yellow Crawler strong like an ox!!
