What pinion gear should I use on the Xpress Arrow AT1?

It depends on your motor and the track. In the 1/10 4WD touring/gt class, racers gear by final drive ratio: 6T and below near 7.34, 13.5T near 4.51, 17.5T near 4.51, 21.5T and up near 3.65. On the Arrow AT1's stock 94T spur that is about 30T for 6T and below, 49T for 13.5T, 49T for 17.5T, 61T for 21.5T and up. Tight tracks gear down, open tracks gear up. For a starting pinion matched to your motor, use the So Dialed Pinion Recommender with the Arrow AT1 selected.

What is the internal ratio (transmission ratio) of the Xpress Arrow AT1?

The Arrow AT1 has an internal ratio of 2.353:1. Final drive ratio = spur ÷ pinion × 2.353. With the stock 94T spur, a 20T pinion gives an FDR of 11.06 and a 52T gives 4.25.

How many teeth is the stock spur gear on the Xpress Arrow AT1?

94 teeth. Changing the spur moves every pinion's ratio at once; most racers leave the spur and tune with the pinion.
