Technical Performance
The main gear is a fundamental component of any RC vehicle's transmission system, and understanding its role is important for maintaining peak performance. In the FTX Tracker, the 64-tooth main gear works in conjunction with your pinion gear and motor to create the overall gear ratio that determines acceleration, top speed and torque delivery. The main gear is the larger gear in this pairing, and its tooth count directly influences how efficiently your motor's power is converted into wheel rotation. A 64-tooth main gear represents a carefully calculated balance by FTX engineers between acceleration and top speed characteristics that suit the Tracker's design and intended use as a capable crawler platform. The gear is manufactured to precise tolerances ensuring smooth meshing with its corresponding pinion gear, eliminating noise, vibration and power loss that would otherwise result from poor tooth engagement. The quality of materials and manufacturing determines how long the gear will last under the demanding conditions of RC off-roading, where rocks, roots, mud and extreme angles all place significant stress on drivetrain components. By replacing a worn main gear with this genuine FTX component, you restore your vehicle to its factory performance baseline and ensure that your RC car UK experience remains enjoyable and reliable. Proper gear maintenance, including regular inspection and timely replacement when wear becomes apparent, is one of the easiest ways to extend the overall lifespan of your FTX Tracker and keep it performing as the engineers intended.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FTX Tracker Main Gear (64T) difficult to install? — Installation difficulty depends on your mechanical experience, but the process is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance knowledge. You will need to access your vehicle's gearbox, remove the old gear and install the new one, ensuring proper alignment and mesh with the pinion gear. Detailed installation instructions are typically available in your FTX Tracker manual or through FTX support resources.
- How do I know when my main gear needs replacement? — Signs that your main gear requires replacement include unusual grinding or clicking noises coming from the gearbox area, visible chipping or cracking of teeth when you inspect the gear, loss of power transmission efficiency, or difficulty engaging gears smoothly during operation. Regular inspection of your drivetrain components is good maintenance practice for any RC vehicle owner.
- Will this genuine FTX gear improve my vehicle's performance compared to aftermarket alternatives? — Using the genuine FTX Tracker Main Gear (64T) ensures that your vehicle operates exactly as FTX engineers designed it, maintaining the precise specifications and quality standards that define the Tracker's performance characteristics. While some aftermarket gears may function adequately, genuine components guarantee compatibility and performance consistency.
- What is the difference between main gears with different tooth counts? — The tooth count on a main gear directly affects your vehicle's gear ratio and therefore its performance characteristics. A gear with fewer teeth provides higher acceleration and lower top speed, whilst a gear with more teeth reduces acceleration but increases top speed. The 64-tooth configuration in this part is specifically designed for the FTX Tracker's intended performance profile.
- Can I use this gear in other FTX models? — This gear is manufactured specifically for the FTX Tracker and may not be compatible with other FTX vehicles, as different models have different gearbox designs and specifications. Always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle model before purchasing replacement gears to ensure proper fit and function.
- How often should I replace my main gear? — The lifespan of your main gear depends on how frequently you use your RC car UK, the driving conditions you encounter and how well you maintain your vehicle. Regular cleaning, proper lubrication of the gearbox and inspection will extend component life significantly. Most casual enthusiasts replace gears only when wear becomes evident, whilst competitive drivers may replace them more frequently as part of preventative maintenance.
