I see a similar problem a few years ago ( but it is very hard to diagnose not hearing or seeing in person) you might check and see if the engine & clutch bell is square with the spur gear and not cocked at a angle sometimes there is enough slop in the slots to let it get at a slight angle if not watching when tightening it down I'm not sure what car you have. but just my .02 worth

No one's annoyed, much. I think you need to just slow it down a bit. You can't learn everything in a few weeks. You'll be much further ahead with "once a week" track days than you will by destroying the thing out in front of your house hitting trees, running through water, sucking dirt, having runaways and so on. It's not that the folks on RCTech don't want to help you, they do, but the guys at the track can see and hear and feel whats going on. There is no substitute for hands on learning. If the net is your best source of help it's going to be a long expensive road, as I think you must know by now.
