About RC Gear Recommender
Not sure what pinion to use in your new R/C car? So Dialed is here to help!
Just enter some information about your car, and our RC Gear Recommender uses artificial intelligence to suggest a great pinion gear, so you get on the track fast.
Ideal for:
- Electric cars and trucks, 1/8, 1/10, and 1/12 scale
- On-road or off-road racing (dirt oval and drag coming later!)
- Cars with foam tires work fine, too - just enter your tire diameter
Please note: everyone's car and track is different! We recommend gears based on typical race cars under typical racing conditions, but if you've done something crazy to your car, our recommendations may not work.
Also, our recommendations are a starting point, so after you try the pinion we suggest, please experiment to see what works best for your driving style and your track, and be sure to record your setups and races in our RC Setup App (link below.)
