I think the differences are as follows, but I'm not positive.

Stock Delrin
Pros: better coefficient of friction
Cons: expands with heat ( requiring a very loose starting gear mesh before it warms up) It will also melt.

New Nylon gear
Pros: doesn't expand as much, doesn't get soft/melt as easily ( can handle more powerful motors )
Cons: higher friction

How come you didn't get the orange ones? Theyre even stronger...

So if you get the new main, the intermediate would look silly in white, right?

I am curious if this is the gear they blew on the Kontronik speed TDR at Rotor Live.

That has crossed my mind too. If so, it would be odd that it should be available so soon after...

Probably only overthinking things here...

Actually isn't this a new intermediate gear and not a main gear?

I thought the intermediate gear is the one that overheated and melted not the main gear.

It's often misinterpreted.
Of course it is The intermediate gear.
Perhaps it needs while, that people get used to a two stage geared heli . . .

With all due respect, I doubt that.
Much more expensive and no need for 90% of the pilots.

The intermediate gear totally stripped today.
It was at the end of a speed run, high up and far away, barely
made it to the field. Minimal damage.

Checked mesh yesterday, everything was fine. Motor was
very hot though.
So i guess it is time to mount the new one. Have one lying on the bench.

Was this the standard gear or the new one that stripped?

Luckily for me, I have a Gmauro gear to use

Standard gear. Most likely it was low in grease.
