Seidel in germany has got the Carson steel 3.2mm pinions 0.8mod 10T to 19T but they are pretty heavy

Don't see them anymore.

Recently read on TC that the metric Robinson pinions actually have a 1/16 inch grub and not a 1.5mm...
So that's why I'm killing 'em all the time up to the point where I have to retap the whole thing to 3mm.

I've bought my 64p Pinions from 3Racing at asiatees. Very nice!

Maybe they have also 48p. They're producing nice parts!

I like 3R as well. Too bad they don't make 32dp pinions...

For substitute for the 18t Hornet pinion, you can use Traxxas 3948 pinion, which is steel..

Even though I figured it out in the meantime...

Funny thing is that the diametrical Traxxas pinions actually have 3mm metric grub screws.
A combination I prefer myself (over metric pinion with diametrical grub).
For this 18T 32dp pinion, pitch difference shouldn't be an issue.
