J’s Crawler, DavidB1126 & RustyUs — Thank you for your recent comments. They are all helpful.
In my last post I shortened my reference to the motor I was/am considering. The one I am looking at is the 3652 size can with 3250kv. Sorry for that. After reading your comments I think I’m in the...
The WP 10BL 120 G2 combo is sensorless.
So, there is a 3652 & 3250 option. That is the option I should be looking at?
I was considering the larger can to help keep run temp lower, but maybe that won’t be a concern.
The stock brushed set up is 12t motor with 84t spur and 14t pinion.

WickedFog, these are all good questions. Thank you.
No, I did not think to check to open up the cover to check the spur gear between runs.
The next run lasted only a few min & there was some odd noise present almost immediately.
Hard bumps during the previous run? Yes. There was one tumble I...
Cool. Thanks for the link.
I clicked around the power hobby website and didn’t find a metal 81t spur. Your suggestion about the larger pinion might be the ticket.
Going to try again…
After quite a summer of enjoying the stock setup for a Losi 22S SCT, I decided to mess around with the gearing.
And things have gone sideways quickly.
The objective was go get more speed with a change to the pinion & spur gears.
Stock Pinion: 48p, 14t
Stock Spur: 48p, 84t
I changed those...
