Pinion Gear for KC10 Chassis

This Kyosho CL017 pinion is an RC-scale motor pinion specified as 12T for the KC10 chassis. It is designed to work with KC10 drivetrains that use 0.8M pitch gearing and serves as a straightforward option when altering the final drive ratio for tuning acceleration or top speed.

Installation is simple but needs attention: confirm the motor shaft diameter and set correct mesh with the spur gear to avoid premature tooth wear. Check axial alignment and minimize runout on the motor shaft, tighten mounting hardware to secure the pinion without deforming the motor shaft, and spin the drivetrain by hand before powering up the electronics.

In tuning terms, fitting a 12T pinion moves the gear ratio towards higher acceleration compared with larger pinions, while smaller pinions reduce load on the ESC and motor. Always verify battery, ESC, and motor setup after changing gear ratios to ensure system reliability.
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.

Is this pinion compatible with all KC10 kits?

It is specified for the KC10 chassis that uses 0.8M pitch gearing; verify your kit uses 0.8M pitch and the same motor shaft diameter before fitting.

Any tips for setting gear mesh?

Set a small backlash, ensure teeth seat across the face, use a marker to check contact pattern, then secure the pinion and recheck mesh after a short run.

Will changing to 12T affect motor temperature?

A 12T pinion changes load characteristics and can increase motor RPM under load, so monitor motor and ESC temperatures after the change and adjust gearing if needed.
