About this episode

This episode provides recommendations for the motor and pinion gear needed for the G6-01 chassis model vehicles.

In a previous episode of the RC Deep Dive podcast we mentioned that to make the King Yellow and Kong Head bulletproof, you needed a hardened steel pinion gear and a high torque 550 brushed motor. A listener asked us which brand and model of opinion gear and 550 brushed motor that we recommend for the G6-01 chassis model vehicles.
