Maxx Transmission problems

[Nick]

When I put on throttle it makes a high pitch noise, like the teeth in the gears (not the pinion spur) are not touching properly.

When I change gear, it changes but sometimes doesn't and I get a loud wooshing noise because the gears arn't meeting or the same high pitch squeel.

I've opened the transmission up and all the gears are in tact, no bad teeth at all. They all meet.

The only problem I can see is that the gear changing slider isn't changing the gears fully and it only goes some of the way, yet I have fiddled with it for hours and it doesn't fix my problem.

I'm really confused because I have re-built the transmission properly several times now and can't understand why the gears arn't working properly and I have hardly any power to the wheels.

Anyone?

Can't really give any suggestions, as i've never took my emaxx apart, is it ok, just using in one gear?

[Nick]

No, both don't work properly, sort of gripping in between.

I have Never Had this Problem when i had mine but i might be able to Help,

1/ I never ran mine in 1ST gear, 2ND is All you Need, 1ST gear puts more Strain on Everything as it Reduces the Ratio Making More Toque with can Bend and Strecth the Shafts or Wreck a Diff,

2/ Before my Rear Diff Went I notticed a Loud Pitch Noise and a Lack of Power to all wheels even thoguh only the Rear Diff Went,

3/ If the Servo does not Move over Fully, Move it your Self then turn on and Try to see if its any Better, Try a Diffrent Servo, Stick a 2055 in there and then see.

Other then That i dont Know.

HTH,

Philip.
