Hot Racing Axial SCX24 0.5M Spur Gear Conversion
About this part
The Hot Racing Axial SCX24 0.5M Spur Gear Conversion combines a .5 mod nylon pinion and an aluminum spur to provide increased strength and durability in the SCX24 drivetrain. This is incredibly beneficial if you have added weight to the chassis, or when driving technical terrain, as there is less risk of failure with the stronger material and larger tooth pitch.

- .5 Mod tooth pitch for increased durability
- Replacement pinion gear: HRASXTF08M05
Number of Teeth: 8 (pinion), 32 (spur)
Gear Pitch: .5 Mod

Not a good item. Makes it much louder, and causes the motor to lose torque and overheat easier. I have set the mesh perfectly, but no matter how you set it it's loud and overheats the motor. None of the items hot racing makes for the scx24 transmission are good. The other items they make for the scx24 and other rigs are great, and I recommend saving your money for other stuff.
This bolts right up, just replace your stock pinion with the one provided by the kit. This provides a torquier gear ratio and allows for you to scale up obstacles with less rpms. This will not burn out your motor, I've had this in my scx24 Jeep for 3 months and will purchase again in another scx24 model!
Loud and doesn't work well, put one on both my jeep and c10. Took both back off to stock and it runs better.
Exactly what the picture shows is exactly what I got. The shipping was great like always, never complain about that. Put it in my Jeep with the OX 050 by Fat boy it's their new motor claiming to be better then the barrage 24 and it is better. That motor with this spur and pinion gear setup is beautiful. So I can recommend this part, hope this helped a little.
Reviewers are split on this 0.5M spur gear conversion for the Axial SCX24. Two reviewers report it bolts in easily and provides more torque for obstacle climbing, with one saying it has not overheated their motor over three months of use. Two reviewers report the opposite: the setup is loud, reduces torque, causes motor overheating even after careful mesh adjustment, and was removed in favour of stock gearing. One reviewer also says the brand's other SCX24 products are good. The reviews include both Jeep and C10 applications. Shipping was mentioned positively by one reviewer. Overall, the reviews show mixed results with no clear consensus.
- + Bolts in with stock pinion replacement
- + Increased torque for obstacle climbing
- + No motor overheating reported by one owner
