What is the best gear ratio for the 90 with a YS 91 ST not SR?

8.45 is the best ratio for the ST.

I don't know how close you can get to that with a Raptor, though.

I can please 1 person a day.
It's NOT your day.
Tomorrow's not lookin good, either

I flew mine on 8.27 and was happy. I ran the head speed up pretty high to get the motor at 16k.
8.45 will be a bit more forgiving of collective usage

you can run 11/91 for 8.27 and 11/93 for 8.45
either will work pretty well depending on flying style

I actually liked the 8.27 much better on my last Raptor. 8.45 is obsolete (I feel) for today's flying styles, and the headspeed that is popular today.

Not for an ST.
It is a rev happy motor, not a high torque motor.

The lower ratio will allow you you obtain a higher head speed while keeping the engine rpms down.
