I'm trying to setup a geardrive for an experiment I want to try, but I have a question that maybe someone out there (Jay, ???) has an answer to perhaps??
The first geardrive in question at this point is a Hughey Single.
1) The main driveshaft appears to be 3/16" (.183 actually...) and the supplied coupler is .185 or so... Has this always been the case, or are their versions with a 5mm shaft?? Otherwise, what do people do about getting couplers that will fit the shaft?? I'm going to need one for a 1/16" wiredrive setup, but all those I have are for either 1/8" shafts or 5mm shafts...
The next geardrive in question is the Fine Design Single:
1) The driveshaft on this appears to be the same size as the axles for an Associated pan car, which I have a feeling was the idea... since the gearhubs also fit my pan cars..... WHAT do you do about a coupler for this setup?? Is it 6mm?? It's smaller than the 8mm couplers I have. What do you use for couplers on these geardrives???
Any info would be appreciated... THANKS!
