    good tip for gear meshing is running piece of paper between spur and pinion gears when the pinion is loose then tightening it down, that ensures good meshing

    I got a system for one of my rc cars and within the first week with the 3500 system the braided wires broke so I went to my local hobby shop and we used heat shrink to fix it. Over the past weekend I went to the track and I didn’t even get to the jumps and the heat tube came loose and made my motor go up in smoke

    • @SupremeGang420
      @SupremeGang420 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Might be the motor, the pinion gear, or the spur gear if the model can’t drive forward and backward and if the ESC isn’t turning on after plugging in a full battery you know is good it might be that the ESC is fried

    I bought 4 Traxxas 3889 tires within the last month. Drove them a minimum of 1 hr, left rear rim shattered and I was only running it across a puddle in my back yard. I paid $92.00 for them and only got 1 hr playtime with them. And Hobbytown won't replace it.

    • @joeshmoe3490
      @joeshmoe3490 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      A. Thanks. But put traxxas wheel extentions on the mini slash steering block and put the mini e-revo tires on them so i dont ruin the turn radius or suspention travel.

      BUT If you're new to RC some of these are unknown yet vital. Like ensuring the lipo voltage cutoff is on when using lipos. Any one new to RC might miss this and end up with their new buggy in flames at the end of their first drive. Hope that makes sense. This video covers a wide variety of topics that those new to RC may not know
