Next little step! Taking a closer look at the steel spur/reduction/main gears for both the standard and B-versions of the A949/A959/A969/A979 ... and instructions for attaching the gear on an A959.
Since the 42T upgrade reduction gear for the B-versions are announced as "steel", and since the 38T seem identical except for the amount of teeth (and both are magnetic) I take it both are hardened metal/steel. Later we will also take a look at the steel pinion gears for the motor.
Hope you will follow along in this series. Most upcoming upgrades are compatible with the WLToys A959-B/A959-A/A949/A969/A969-B/A979/A979-B and other versions in the WLToys 1/18 4WD Vortex High Speed RC Car Series.
The WLToys A959-B & A959 Versions and Upgrade Parts was kindly provided by Banggood, free for review and tests. Part numbers and links to each upgrade will be available in the description box of each instructional video.
