Tuning Pinion for the MP11e Chassis

This steel pinion is supplied as a replacement/tuning item for electric touring cars in the Inferno MP Series MP11e family. The part corresponds to an 18-tooth count at 0.8M pitch and is made from steel to resist wear in motor-drive applications.

Use the pinion when you want to alter acceleration or top speed by changing tooth count; a single pinion change shifts the overall drive ratio and must be matched to the existing spur gear and an accurate mesh setting. Confirm shaft diameter and appropriate clearance before extended running.

Fitting guidance: remove the motor to reach the pinion, confirm secure mounting on the motor shaft, tighten set screws evenly, and check for runout or sideplay. Conduct a brief bench test after installation to ensure clean engagement.

PNGS0818 provides a straightforward way to replace a worn motor pinion or to experiment with gear ratio changes on MP11e electric touring cars.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will a different tooth count change lap times?

Yes. Increasing teeth raises top speed at the expense of low-end acceleration, while fewer teeth boost acceleration. Tune with spur size, motor timing and ESC settings for best lap time.

Is steel better than brass for tuning swaps?

Steel offers greater wear resistance under heavy loads and high rpm, making it a good choice for frequent gear changes or aggressive driving styles.

How to test new gear ratios safely?

Fit the pinion, perform a bench run at low throttle to check mesh, then run short low-speed laps to evaluate performance and motor temperature before a full session.

Does changing the pinion affect the ESC settings?

It can. Larger pinions may push the motor and ESC harder; monitor motor and ESC temps and, if necessary, adjust throttle profiles or timing to maintain safe operation.
