I personally don't consider this to be "reliable" or "durable". I dont think a hinge pin or a belt should ever be a failure. The pin failure is just an example of weaker design and/ or part . The belt is the same thing. How can a sc10 4x4, which weighs more and uses more power not break belts , but this tiny little buggy does ? I can accept arm failures , even though I had never had one before the 22-4. You cant always keep that other driver out of your space, those are usually the hardest hits I have had.
