And that's too bad, because the car looks great and is fast, but when a car isn't reliable it's pretty much worthless for the 'average joe'.
Anyway, better luck with the Yokomo!
yep, I was driving the low friction belts so that could've been my problem.
One thing I noticed that within 5-6 batteries I could already see that the teeth on the pulley weren't sharp anymore, I think they should've used an alu pulley. That would've been more wear resistant.
Well I4ve driven my BD for the last year and havent had too much troubles with it. My only problem was parts support, but since graupner started distributing Yokomo the problem has been solved :-)
