Mini 4WD G-6, G10 Gear

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Torque-Heavy Power for Technical Tracks! While many racers focus on chasing top speed, true track veterans know that torque is what wins on a highly technical circuit. The G-6 and G-10 gear set provides a low 5:1 gear ratio, which is the perfect setup for tracks packed with tight corners, steep slopes, and complex jump sections. At Hobby Hideaway, we highly recommend keeping this specific gear set in your pit box for those days when pure acceleration and climbing power are more important than straight-line speed.

Maximize Your Motor's Pulling Power A 5:1 gear ratio means that for every five times your motor shaft turns, your wheels turn once. This mechanical advantage allows the car to rapidly accelerate out of dead stops or sharp turns, and prevents the motor from bogging down on steep inclines. It is an incredibly popular tuning choice for heavy, highly modified machines that need extra "grunt" to get moving quickly after a harsh landing.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• G-6 Gear (Light Green): The 30T (30-tooth) spur gear, molded in easily identifiable light green plastic.

• G-10 Gear (Blue): The 24T/18T counter gear, molded in bright blue.

• 5:1 Gear Ratio: Delivers maximum torque and rapid acceleration at the expense of top speed.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: If you are running a heavy "B-Max" or Open Class car on our Orleans track and find that it struggles to regain speed after the technical jump sections, swapping to this 5:1 gear set is an instant fix! Because these gears endure a lot of rotational force, ensure you apply a light coat of high-quality grease to the gear teeth during assembly to keep them running smoothly and quietly.
