yeh the feeling of finding the problem is so pleasing, ordered a stock spur and i feel like 11t pinion for a bit of a change, both ordered 🙂

upon closer inspection, the pinion gear is loose, such a noob mistake

cheers for your input brains, got a reply back from msuk, i just dont know what to do lol, its none of the below reasons tho 😞 Hello If you are damaging the teeth then this would usually be either incorrect meshing, or it could be dirt which has got between the gears. If you are burning the centre's out then this would be due to the clutch slipping too much, incorrect setting, not enough tension on the spring. We would also advise checking that the tyres do not have any water in them as often this will add additional load on to the transmission, and check that none of the bearings have failed on the prop, motor shaft. Because you are using 3s batteries Traxxas do not suggest that the centre diff is used, so that would not be an option. In all honesty we very rarely see any issues with the standard part, "spur" and would not usually suggest a metal spur gear.

id say so, use the paper technique like i all ways have done 😞

ive got the traxxal ali mount so not that, also got the e-revo slipper clutch so not that either, my 2 options im thinking of is upgraded spur to metal along with upgraded diffs or center diff with upgraded diffs, running 10/54 gearing also also never bash it lately, only run in the community center on concrete (no jumps at all) so im just baffled

no matter how perfect i get the gear mesh im still chewing through spurs like mad, im running rustler 4x4 vxl 3s with pro line trencher 2.8's, had enough of it, am i right thinking a center diff instead of a slipper will help with this problem? https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/traxxas-centre-differential-kit-complete-440080

wow

wow has adding pics to a post been removed? i have no option to add pics no more

had 2 runs out now, one at the forest and one at the community center, both runs without breaks.....things seem good, and for now the weak links are at bay.....quite thankful really, as it was seeming every run something was breaking

Oh baby I’ve missed quality tools I tell ya! 5 seconds with the eds and the stripped screw is out….. 🥰

just ordered drivers, not going to mess around with this screw any more till they arrive, if they can get them out nice....if not dremel time....yay .....

oh baby now thats a kit! your not messing around, im in love! well if green looool, seriously tho, very bloody nice!

yep defo investing in some decent hex drivers for my next buy, one stripped pinion grub and one stripped on the end of the slipper that goes into the middle alu shaft, verry annoyed, only way i can see now is to dremel these off and make a loss and hope not to damage the motor.....grhhhh 😞 i had eds tools years ago with my erevo, they were decent

well ive got one stripped pinion grub screw, great lol, cant get it of for anything
