Steve-O2021 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) Anyone know what's going on here? When I leave my truggy for a week or so I'm Getting bad wheel wobble for the first minute or so of use which then clears. Video attached 🙂   Looks like a wheel is buckled but it's not  Thanks Edited March 13, 2022 by Steve-O2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGinge Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I have zero evidence to base this on but could it be related to the tyres or foams? Possibly an imbalance in the wheel, caused by them either forming a bit of flat spot when resting or or having some moisture that settles to the "bottom" of the foams over time, that sorts itself out after a bit of a run? Â Do you have any spare wheels you could try to see if it still happens? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-O2021 Posted March 13, 2022 Author Share Posted March 13, 2022 Hhhmm suppose it could be possible that there is moisture in the tyres settling but it won't be flat spots as the truggy is stored with the wheels off the ground  Thanks:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersavage Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 If you store it on its wheels you'll get a flat spot on the tires. I always keep my RCs on a stand, like a biscuit tin or a dedicated RC stand or I'll take the wheels off and just stack the wheels in a corner somewhere.

YOUR_DJ Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I had the same problem, until I got new tires. I will take all of this advice and use it for the granite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yrkoon Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 my hyper 7 done that on one wheel once i converted it and ran it, i actually had bits of gravel dust etc inside the tyre and it had destroyed the foam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
