Episode 54
Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description
Pinion gears are available in both steel and aluminum. Usually aluminum comes in the kit, and both metal types are available as hop-up options. Steel is harder, heavier, and stronger, but did that always make it a better option than aluminum, or is aluminum sometimes a better option? We take a deep dive into pinions on this episode of the RC Deep Dive.
