Durable pinion upgrade for OPTIMA drivetrains

The Kyosho OTW161 HD Final Pinion Gear is a tough upgrade for OPTIMA chassis. Machined from hardened steel with 32 teeth, it gives cleaner power delivery and increased service life compared to softer materials. Ideal for racers and hobbyists who want a reliable final pinion that stands up to repeated use.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Which OPTIMA variants will accept the Kyosho OTW161?

Check your vehicle's pinion shaft diameter and tooth count; the OTW161 is made for OPTIMA series pinion shafts using a 32T gear profile. If unsure, compare the existing pinion measurements before fitting.

How does steel affect mesh and maintenance?

Steel holds its shape better under load, so check and set gear mesh carefully when installing to avoid undue wear on the spur. Periodic inspection and light lubrication will keep the OTW161 running smoothly.

Is a motor change needed when upgrading to this pinion?

Not necessarily. You may need to adjust pinion size or motor mount position to achieve desired top speed and torque. The OTW161 itself does not force an electronics swap.
