adamsi1985 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 yes it runs and goes well just no brakes but like I say iv put it on bench with wheels in the air the wheels run once I press the brakes the brake stops the drive gear spinning but doesn't stop the wheels.1st petrol one iv owned so new to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evssv Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 ok..so sound like sumin todo with the brake side of things.....is the brake disc on the hex it sits on?I'm assuming a yama is the same as a hpi/km baja.....u need to try n see the brake disc is seated properly......

daddy woo Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) don't know where you are but I'm willing to have a look and sort it out I'm in reading and have some experience of the model in question . I agree that it is probably something to do with hex bit within the disks or possibly the collar on brake rod slipped Edited December 28, 2017 by daddy woo forgot to add the last bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsi1985 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 thanks just checked all the brake system and all seems good all the cogs lock up on brake but the wheels still spin I'm going to investigate the dif tmr as even the big cog on the dif locks up so I reckon something inside there.bit **** its only had 1 tank of petrol through it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evssv Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) this is the reason 99% of people on here would tell sumone not to buy yama buggy...they're cheap for a reason .....they r very poor quality unfortunately to say dude.....and they r nothing but trouble in the long run...........sumins definalty wrong as the wheels should not spin when braking.... ....
