How do you figure out gear ratio ?
If I know my main gear, pinion, and prop size I should be able to figure this out right ? Any help is appreciated as I have forgotten how to determine the gear ratio.

Prop size makes no difference.
Ratio is spur (main) number of teeth divided by pinion number of teeth.

66/10=6.6 or 6.6:1
