Brushless gearing for 10T w/Mamba Max & 5700kv motor

I just picked-up a Mamba Max & 5700kv motor combo for my 10T project/build, and wanted to know what I should use as a good starting point for gearing.

I will be running an RPM 2.65 conversion box with a T3 slipper clutch on it.

Thanks,

David

Here is the novak brushless gearing chart:

The 5700kv motor is roughly between a 6.5 and 5.5 motor, so a 12.0 fdr would be a good starting point. Try 19/87 and go up or down from there (87/19) x 2.65 = 12.13 :D
