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. Derived is worked out from gear tooth counts the maker publishes rather than printed as a ratio; the notes below say how. Not published means it exists but no source we could find prints it.
Gearing parts
| Component | Teeth | Pitch | Bore | Part number |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fitted at the factory | ||||
| Pinion | 12T | Not published | Not published | IF505-12 (opens in a new tab) |
| Spur | 46T | Mod 1 | Not applicable | IF245B (opens in a new tab) |
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 (5 mm on the stock motor). Linked part numbers go to the maker's or official distributor's page for that part.
How these numbers were settled
The successor to the NEO 3.0 VE, with the stronger TORX 8+ 2300KV motor, BRAINZ 8 V2 ESC and an XT60 battery connector.
- Kyosho's Technical Data gives 'Gear Ratio 12.7:1' and 'Tire (F/R) φ115×45mm'.
- The spare parts list names IF505-12 'Pinion Gear (12T/VE)', IF245B 'Steel Spur Gear (46T/NEO)', and a 13T drive bevel (IF21B) with a 43T bevel (IF106) in the diffs.
- The ratio after the spur is 43/13 = 3.308, and 46/12 x 3.308 = 12.68 against Kyosho's 12.7:1.
- Kyosho's motor page (70602) gives 2300KV and a 5.0mm shaft; the product page describes a 1.0-module main gear.
- The manual runs the car on two 2S (7.4V) LiPo or two 7.2V NiMH packs with XT60 plugs, but Kyosho prints no cell rating for the BRAINZ 8 V2, so the cell count is left blank.
- The 34118T2S is the same car in a second colour scheme.
