I'm not too familiar with micro rs4 parts. That may have been what the gears I saw were intended for. Do they offer micro rs4 gears in the 17 -23 tooth range?

I have no way to measure its speed but it's very fast. Much faster than my friends dtm x4 with a 180 motor and running on 6 cells. Also faster than stock and mildly modified micro rs4s.
