Technical Performance
The FTX Gladius Transmission Gear 27T represents precision engineering in miniature drivetrain components. Transmission gears are critical elements of any RC vehicle's power delivery system, responsible for transferring rotational force from the motor through the gearbox to ultimately propel your Gladius forward. The 27-tooth specification is a carefully calculated component designed to work harmoniously within the Gladius's overall drivetrain architecture. Proper gear selection directly impacts acceleration characteristics, top speed potential, and the overall efficiency with which your vehicle converts motor power into forward motion. When a transmission gear becomes worn or damaged through normal use—whether from competitive racing, aggressive terrain play, or extended recreational driving—replacement with an authentic OEM part ensures you maintain the performance envelope the vehicle was designed to deliver. FTX's commitment to manufacturing quality spare parts means this gear has been tested to ensure it meets the same durability and precision standards as original equipment, providing peace of mind that your Gladius will continue performing at its intended capability level.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FTX Gladius Transmission Gear 27T a genuine OEM part? — Yes, this is an authentic FTX original equipment manufacturer spare part, manufactured to the precise specifications and quality standards of the components supplied with new FTX Gladius vehicles. When purchasing from authorised UK RC retailers, you can be confident you're receiving genuine FTX parts rather than inferior aftermarket alternatives.
- What is a transmission gear and why do I need to replace it? — A transmission gear is a precision-cut component within your vehicle's gearbox that transfers power from the motor to the wheels. Through regular use, gears can become worn, chipped, or damaged, particularly during competitive racing or aggressive driving. Replacing worn gears with quality OEM parts like this 27T gear ensures your Gladius maintains optimal performance and prevents potential drivetrain damage that could result from running degraded components.
- Will this gear fit my FTX Gladius? — This gear is specifically designed for FTX Gladius models and is a direct replacement component. Before purchasing, confirm your vehicle model is the FTX Gladius to ensure compatibility. If you're unsure about fitment, our expert team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance to help you select the correct spare parts for your specific Gladius variant.
- How often should I replace transmission gears on my RC car? — The frequency of gear replacement depends on how intensively you use your vehicle. Casual recreational drivers may only need to replace gears occasionally, whilst competitive racers pushing their vehicles to the limit may need replacements more frequently. Inspect your gears regularly for signs of wear such as chipped teeth or visible damage, and replace them when wear becomes apparent to maintain optimal performance and prevent further drivetrain damage.
- What is the difference between transmission gears of different tooth counts? — Transmission gears with different tooth counts (such as 27T versus other specifications) create different gear ratios within the drivetrain. These ratios affect your vehicle's acceleration, top speed, and overall power delivery characteristics. The 27T specification is engineered specifically for the FTX Gladius platform to deliver the performance balance that model was designed to achieve.
