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. Not published means it exists but no source we could find prints it. The top speed is kinematic: an ideal no-load RPM with no slip and no loss under load, so a real car is slower.
Gearing parts

Tooth counts are the ones in the specifications above. Pitch is given as metric module (Mod 1, Mod 0.8) or diametral pitch (32P, 48P). They are different standards and are not interchangeable, even where the numbers look close. Bore is the pinion’s hole, listed separately from the motor shaft. Linked part numbers go to the maker's or official distributor's page for that part.
How these numbers were settled
FMS prints the two-speed gearing as totals: 'High Gear: 17.7, Low Gear: 94.2', on the product page and in the manual's specification page; the high gear is used here and the low gear of 94.2 is the crawl ratio.
- The motor is a 1312 brushless can that the product page describes as a '1312 2600KV brushless motor'.
- The ESC is the SO-ESC10ABL-1312, which the manual rates at '2-3S Lipo' for motors up to 4300KV; the truck ships with a 2S 7.4V 900mAh pack.
- The tire is the licensed BFGoodrich KO3 at 'Φ 58*19 mm' in FMS's own specification table.
- FMS lists the pinion (C4089) and the transmission and axle gear sets (C4087, C4088) as spare parts but prints no tooth counts, so the pinion, the spur and the ratio after it are left blank. 118L01BLBK is the black edition's SKU; no colour-free SKU is published.
