The Yokomo YOKR12-6490 is a precision spur gear specified for R12 chassis use, offering a 90-tooth count in 64-pitch to ensure consistent meshing characteristics. The item notes accurate tooth geometry that supports fine ratio tuning while leaving the pinion unchanged, useful for balanced on-road drivetrain tuning.
Fitment and role: designed for R12-series platforms that accept 64-pitch gearing, it serves as the main driven gear that engages the motor pinion to establish the total gear ratio. Selecting a different tooth count produces changes in acceleration and maximum speed at the model scale, so this gear is best for incremental tuning rather than complete drivetrain redesigns.
Installation notes: confirm your chassis specification supports 64-pitch spur gears before fitting, set gear mesh with the motor pinion to get an even contact pattern across the tooth face, and ensure the spur mounts flat on its hub with no lateral play. Verify bearing condition and drivetrain alignment after installation to avoid premature wear; handle using appropriate RC-level tools.
