What gear is the best {11-13t} for T-rex SE w/430-Kv3550 motor & flightpower 20c batt.? Is there an advantage's or disadvantage's when using one or the other? I'm using the 11 tooth that was recommended when setting up my heli when it was just the XL model. Since than I upgraded to an SE. I also set my pitch and throttle curves using Mas tech, with 0 degree on center. It seems like I don't have enough RPM at center causing it to feel a little slow on collective response. Dose anybody have any time tested advice on this situation.

13tooth works pretty well with the 3550 motor

If you dont have enough rpm at center stick up your throttle curve, mine is 100 all the way across in idle up.

Thanks for the advice. I am using the 11 tooth now. It should be interesting to see the difference. I'll let you all know how it goes.

Thanks again

WOW! What a difference. It is as if I put a new performance motor in this thing. From a hover it launches upward like a rocket when I goose the throttle. Very Cool!

Thanks Again
