I've damaged two gear sets in 12months. I'd like to get more life out of them. What you all use to lube the gears? How often do you lube them?
If you're running a stock pinion, stop it. Buy a good one. The stock one gets worn quickly and eats plastic.
If you run outdoors, especially with an 05 V2, clean the gears frequently. All of the chassis are vulnerable to grit though.
