Hi this is my first build ever! I am excited
I have a Ice 100 and I bought the Hyperion 4025-790 motor can I use the ice with that engine. Also it requires or says to use 10s lipo! Can I use 8s?
And then Do I have to cut the shaft of the motor to install it. And what would the 16t gear be ok with that engine?
what I have Chaos 600e Savox Servers BEC Pro Ice 100 Hyperion 4025-790 engine KDE Upgrade parts

You will have to buy a new pinion gear, the ones that come with the Chaos are 6mm and the Hyperion output shafts are only 5mm. thats about all the advice I can give you because i am a noob too, only have had my 600 together long enough to spin it up and tip it over. I just picked up the replacement parts last night and am waiting for the mailman to bring me my new swash leveling tool so I can start the set up all over again for round 2.
I can say this though, buy some training gear, that is what saved me. If it wasn't for the training gear I would have had to replace more than just the main blades and main shaft.

Thanks! I think I will get some training gear! How long did it take you to put your bird together?

Also ? do you think I could pick up a pinion gear from a local hobby shop or do I have to order it online?

I have been tinkering with mine since spring, but I spread the cost out over all this time buying a part here and a part there. If it wasn't for the help of ROVpilot26 I would still be buying bits and pieces.
If you local hobby shop sells larger helicopters you should have no problem getting it from them. If not I am sure they would be able to order it in for you, but going to a online shop in your country may actually be faster because most stores only order once a week, or they wait till they have enough stuff on an order to get free shipping. I ordered a swash plate leveler on Monday, it arrived this morning. If I had ordered through the closest hobby shop to me I would have been waiting a couple of weeks according to the staff.
Do you have all the specialty tools you will need, like the mentioned swash leveler, and a pitch gauge? It is easy to whip up a blade balance, but the store bought ones work so well and can be had fairy cheap. Mine is the heli max one and only cost $20

I was thinking of getting that same main gear. Does it fit on the standard one-way bearing housing or do you need to buy their version?
I would not mount the ESC under the motor for heat reasons. Better to move it to the side. I'm looking forward to see this one fly as it is on 8c should be nice. Sorry I can't help you with your motor questions. There is plenty of online HS calculators to work out your HS with whatever pinion you want to use.

You have to buy KDE oneway bearing housing and bearing to use the KDE main gear.

Yea I know that now I've been doing research into stretching mine to a 700. I just saw that RCA sell their stuff. Great!
