getting some new hex drivers for sure - got the xxx-4 btw (waz, want a few clicks of it on sunday? I have a new body/wing and the whole things in very nice condition), and having going out of my mind all day about the wobbling spur gear in the xxx-4 ive found out its perfectly normal. something weird is going on in the front diff though, the right front outdrive somtimes pops out about 5mm but operates fine, and i can disengage or engage the one way effect by twisting one of the front wheels backwards!!
also, the discharger is not working properly, i.e. the cells have been discharging for like a day and a half and aren't down yet... could be the way i put the LEDs in, maybe the resistors are doing nothing and the LEDs are the only thing draining power....

you have a front one way in it. its perfectly normal for the outdrive to look like its falling out. as tom says there should be a spring between the bone and the outdrive. if there is not one there you can open up a pen and use the spring from the mechanism in the pen. just cut it down and spread it out.
new traxxas brushless - i want one but my past experience and instincts tell me traxxas is to be laughed at from far away
anyway, i just bought a nice spektrum servo on eBay (new) for just $15!
i managed to break a front left arm on the xxx-4 - i think my esc is on the fritz - but thanks to levi i have another 3 handy (not including the one i used to replace the broken one)
Gday Guy,
I have a few new spur gears for the V1s series 3 , if you have not yet replaced your 1st speed spur gear yet , if we get a chance to race this sunday, there will be no excusses to see your beast running in pull start, Regards , Stuart.
i have some hardened allen keys, not drivers but hey.
now i need a few extra battery packs, a receiver (27mhz or another channel that includes crystals) that needs to fit between the motor and the servo in an x-4, also a set of pinions - whos got any of these for trade or sale?
I am going to try and get the the track on saturday around 2.00pm to give it a bit of a tidy up , there is a few wash outs after all the rain , but the debri on the surface is the main problem, I know that we arnt racing till the following week end but a little bit know will help a lot for the following week end, So if there are a couple of people willing to help it would be much apriciated.
