Axial RBX10 Ryft 4WD

Stock is as the vehicle ships. Calculated is worked from the stock figures on this page rather than stored beside them, so the two cannot drift apart. The top speed is kinematic: an ideal no-load RPM with no slip and no loss under load, so a real car is slower.

How these numbers were settled

Axial publishes pinion 17T and spur 53T but no ratio field for this model, and neither manual has a gear chart.

• The ratio after the spur is worked out from tooth counts Axial does print.
• The kit manual (AXI03009, steps D5-D7) builds the single-speed transmission from the 'Trans, Gears (Hi Speed)' set AXI232058, a 23T and a 24T gear, and the RTR manual lists the same set as stock.
• The axles are 38T/13T.
• That gives 24/23 x 38/13 = 3.05 after the spur and 53/17 x 3.05 = 9.51 in total.
• Which of the 23T and 24T drives the other is not printed: 23 driving 24 is inferred because it is the only direction that makes Axial's 'Hi Speed' pair the taller of the two in its optional two-speed set, so treat the ratio as a close reading rather than a printed figure.
• The 149.86mm tire is the RTR manual's Interco TSL Bogger 5.9in.
