Optimise your OPTIMA Mid with the Kyosho OT257 gear set

Modelers focused on consistent lap times will find the OT257 counter gear set from Kyosho a useful upgrade for the OPTIMA Mid platform. It tightens gear engagement and is built to withstand repeated running.

Accuracy where it matters

The Kyosho OT257 is produced to strict tolerances to reduce backlash and vibration in the gearbox. That accuracy helps maintain steady power flow under load and supports repeatable handling characteristics.

Keep your car race ready

With reduced wear on contact points, this counter gear set helps cut down on gearbox servicing and keeps the vehicle reliable through multiple events and practice sessions.
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.

Does OT257 require different lubrication?

Use the same gearbox lubes recommended for OPTIMA Mid. Apply a light, even film to gear faces and recheck after bedding-in runs.

Are there upgrade paths beyond this gear set?

After fitting the OT257, consider upgraded bearings or harder pinions to further reduce drivetrain losses, depending on your setup and running style.

Will fitting affect maintenance intervals?

Improved gear durability can extend intervals between full gearbox overhauls, but routine inspections should still be scheduled after heavy use.

Can I run this on different surfaces?

The OT257 is suitable for a range of track surfaces; just check that grit and debris are kept out of the gearbox to avoid accelerated wear.

Any tips for initial setup after fitting?

After installation, run the drivetrain by hand to confirm smooth engagement, then perform a short session to settle the mesh before final adjustments.
