Product Information:
This gear set is the standard gear set. It is coated black, which brings me some concern about wear actually as I do not want little black dust in the grease and the gear teeth causing more wear than we already need. The coating comes off very quickly.

Pros:
Stronger than the stock gears on the TM. That's all there is to it and that's all you need from these gears. If you have upgraded springs and piston with a 9.6V, you will EVENTUALLY (not immediately) want these gears for piece of mind.

If you are on a tight budget though, this is probably something you should put off for later. People make it seem like TM stock gears are made of aluminum foil, and I assure you they are not. I have a 10.8V battery with a PDI 150% in my TM and the stock gears have held up. Of course they're gonna wear out faster so I got these.

If everything engages correctly and there are no user errors in modification, stock gears are just fine, and these are fine even more so.

Cons:
I agree with A. IATROPOULOS when it comes to the strength of these pistons. They will hold up very well when installed correctly, but if something goes wrong these gears can't hold. However, I cannot blame these guys for breaking against user and manufacturer error, EVEN if they should hold.

I've had my Supercore piston metal part just break in half. The metal tab got stuck into the gear. It bent the axle of the sector gear and ripped the teeth off of my spur gear. THANKFULLY my bevel gear was ok. Which is actually saying something about the strength of these gears even though two got broken. The sector gear teeth were actually ok! Even though they failed, it was actually user error on my part due to the supercore piston being incorrectly swiss cheesed and short-teethed.

Yes they cannot stand up to catastrophic problems, they will not survive, but that is expected for a gear set....
