Default Re: 55 turn still too fast!

First off a smaller pinion such as a 6 tooth will help. I tried a 6 tooth and a 55 but it is still not as slow as a 4:1. Next if it is still to fast you can go to a 65 turn or a 75 turn with the smaller pinion. Are you planning to use an MFU or similar unit in this truck, if so I think you could still get by with an Integy 4:1 which would put the motor up over top of the servos with no modification.
