This is perfect for me! I set my gear mesh wrong, and stripped my spur gear in 2 uses. 😅
Already waiting for tomorrow’s post!
I also do the paper trick, but i use big enough of a piece of paper and run it all the way through. If it goes through without ripping the paper and leaves perfect teeth prints 👍🏾💯
Thanks for posting. I was actually just googling this last night.
Who wasn’t!

glad you covered the fact that you need to check in more than one position, caught a few out of round myself. May also have a slightly bent rotor shaft as well, definitely a good combination.
Thank you Mark. And have a merry Christmas
Ive used the paper method ever since getting my 1st rc. A Tamiya Blackfoot back in 1986. I believe it was in their build manual. Even my early on Traxxas TMaxx's instruction manual had a number of pre labeled templets in the back that you could cut and use. I dont think I have seen this in any manual in quite some time. Perfect size is @ 5/16" x 1-1/4". This stays put even if you accidently roll the gears a little while tightening. I have owned @ 2dozen RC's over the years in Electric, Nitro and Gas and have always done the paper trick. I dont recall the last time I had a gear mesh failure. Good Luck.
mark i cant ever mesh my gears right so ive always had to use the paper technique it has always worked for me thank chris
This is perfect, I just stripped my spur gear on my Rustler 4x4 VXL for the second time. Can never get this right... XD Thanks!
Good stuff Mark. I learned this ages ago. 🥂
Good info for the novice. Another note is to make sure the grub screw for the pinion gear is not going to hit the spur gear also.
Oh man mark mark just what i needed i just converted from nitro to electric..perfect
Awesome tip thanks Mark.
Great information Mark 👍
Just make sure if you are using paper method to use general note paper and if it tears when you spin the spur gear by hand inspect closely something is not correct. Gears are not generally expensive to replace but setup incorrectly it will lead to a host of issues.
I had no clue this was so important thanks!
I always just push em together hard as i can 😬
@@oarf1017 😂😂😬😬😬
This is really helpfull for beginners.
Keep it up bro!✌✌
Yea the paper trick has worked for me for 15years!
Hey, I actually need this, gonna replace the motor in my trx4
You knkw the trx4 has a motor plate with set spots for different size pinion gears
@@randomstuffno1caresabout3 yeah, tore it apart after finishing up the video and saw that, makes my life easier now
That is great. Thanks Mark
XL 5 brushed motors will benefit chucking the factory installed phillips head motor screws & replace with Traxxas part # 3931 3x8mm flat head hex drive screws. Better feel & no stripping of inferior phillips screw head .
Yes Hi mark
Hey do you have a 4wd slash or 2wd slash?
@@MarkSantaMaria 2 wheel drive
That's a pretty cool technique. I have a question about how you upload your videos 5 days a week and have alot of content. I've fallen off of UA-cam and want to start posting again. Recently watching your videos and seeing you grow inspired me. My current goal is to get to 1k so I can do live videos subs I'm currently at 529. Love the videos keep up the good work!👍
Traxxas or Traxxas Support made a video about it, I think for electric Traxxas models they suggest using lined notebook paper, pretty sure it's normal paper for Traxxas nitro, and I think that is for 48 pitch, but you can watch their video. They also sell fixed gear adapters which are good but I don't know what spur and pinion combinations they work with and for what models.
I have the 90th like!
Hey Mark looking to get a brushless system for my 1/16 scale e revo don't have a lots of cash any suggestions? Got hurt at work just had surgery 😕 Kind of board.I watch your UA-cam videos every day bro.
It works for me
I use a traxxas parts bag to do the job, both sides on the highest part of the spur gear
So helpful
I learned this I. My first car, a redcat, by actually READING the manual! 🤣
Would the paper work that come off a package part? Or would that be to thick on a kaiju? Need help?
I notice you dont turn the truck off like they tell you too. It says to unplug the battery not push the button on esc.
They only say that so u don't leave the batteries connected after shutting off the unit....on the erevo once u do the update the button will not even shut the car off
do a vid on 48p gearing vs 32p gearing
How do I do it on nitro buggy can I do the Paper trick on a nitro buggy with metal spur gears as well
what gearing do they run in spec slash
Can use plastic from zip lock bag or parts bag plastic..at the end I prefer to eyeball and feel.. 😂
Make sure the paper isn't to thick. I have done this since the late 80's.
😍👍
But what KIND of paper? There's a wide range of thicknesses. I've been using standard printer paper.
I know right, is using the paper part on part packages to thick? I have a kaiju. I need help with this. Burn a motor out, and my motor gets hot just running it for like 10 to 15 minutes.
Been doing this since the 90’s. 👴🏼
Maybe even the 80’s 😬😮🥴

Bro just used Metric!! 😲😲
