This aluminum idler gear post is produced to hold the MD3.0 counter gear in RC vehicles. It serves as the locating support that sets the counter gear relative to the spur and pinion, helping preserve correct mesh during regular operation.
Compatibility information cites the MDR-030 chassis; the item functions as a spare or upgrade for assemblies that use the MD3.0 counter gear. The original note lists the gear attachment part as ?5mm and a length of 10mm as provided in source details.
Fitting advice: install the post into the original idler position on the MDR-030 layout. No chassis modification should be necessary when the replacement post matches the stock dimensions. After fitting, turn the drivetrain by hand to confirm smooth operation before switching the motor on.
Setup considerations: replacing a soft post with an aluminium unit lowers mounting play and helps keep the counter gear engagement consistent across tuning changes and everyday club driving.
