Default Stock Tail Ratio on Blade 550X
Does anyone know the stock tail ratio, or tooth count on drive gear and bevel gear at front end of torque tube? I believe the ratio is 1:1 on the tail end, so the front end is where I believe the true ratio would be found. Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,
Techman-2000

I have 147/33 teeth giving a 4.455 ratio.
Not sure where I got it from so I cant 100% vouch for it.
Good luck.

Yes, that is correct. I just checked a few weeks back before I tried larger tails, ratio is 4.4-something.
