Didn't you mention that it was because of the engine mount to the crankscase was loose?
How did I get mine to work? I drive on cruise mode?
I notice that with your current meshing on your car, I personally found it too loose for my liking ! I would mesh it further in but that's me...

If you're trying to produce this kind of "loose and rotating " meshing for the 61/16 I think it will not work and you'll strip more gears.

Ah, I C. thanks for the info.
Do you really need it though? I'd prefer to re-charge my onboard battery after 2 or 3 runs instead of having added weight.

rcpanama, very nicely built.
I believe the gadget on the upper deck left side is a MIP temp gauge but what is on the right?
This is:
An on-board, self contained digital battery voltage monitor. Moving your servos show loaded battery voltage. The actual voltage, not a simulated load. You are able to see battery's voltage to the nearest 10mV in easy to read digits.

I'm running 16/61 1st gear combo and going through about one spur a week! I'm making sure it has the proper mesh and making sure my motor mounts are secure but still stripping.

I noticed in my car that there seems to be a problem with the 61t spur, as it seems to be excentric. That is, mesh can be good in one position, but when the spur is rotated the mesh changes. In that case, mesh can change from Ok to too loose, or too tight.
This is a point for Serpent has to look at.

I will still keep in touch though,
I want to thank you guys because in this thread I have learned very much. I want to thank you for you patience when I asked silly and repetitive questions.

I am sure that if I didn't have it I will also be charging the battery every 3 to 4 runs. It also gives you the information on what is the current consumption of the servos when you used each of them separate.

Remember, the pinions are Al. on Al gears and you're supposed not to only use the thin spacers when screwing them together but you're supposed to screw in, lightly tighten, unscrew and then screw back together. I think that's what the manual says.
I do this one more cycle ... the first two by using only my hand to tighten. Then, using the pinion tools that came with the kit, taking care to ensure that they're both parallel at all times when tightening the pinions together. I also use a small amount of blue thread-lock so I don't need to thighten them too hard.
All of the above is wasted advice of course, if what you mean is not that the spurs are eccentered but instead they're wobbly in their vertical plane. This probably means they're either not seated properly in their respective carriers/holders or they're warped.

I JUST GOT MY 710...I am very excited
