unlucky mate thats a simple job tho only the spur gone, couple quid fix, and i doubt the motor would have jumped off the spur lol its probably just not meshed right. id go for mod 1 geaering, a lot tougher mate, im going for the fastest erbe land speed soon so watch my youtube :)
I know for a fact that u have the stock plastic gear in that i did the same thing wen i went double batterys the guy at the shop told me to replace it with a metal one bit i saaid f it and destroyed the gear :(
o metal gears work good you people know quite a bit about rc cars :3 i am new to them though with the best battery for mine it will go over 70 i dont know how much over :/
I have a slash 4x4 and one of the main problems is that gear and when I figured it out it never strips ever. Make sure its adjusted right or that will happen a lot.
Watching your video makes me wanna cry! My Traxxas E Revo can run a lot faster than that! Are you sure you had it set up right!? There should be proper slack between the pinion gear and the drive gear, too tight and you will hasten the life of the gears, not to mention putting extra stress in the motor, if you set them too far apart, well I guess this video shows exactly what happens.
been wondering how exactly to know if motor if replaced properly does it need to be tightly pushed on spur has in very hard or kinda just a bit loose so i dont hear the motor too much.kind of lame explication but if u did understood and u know lol could u let me know thanks
The same just happened to me u just gotta adjust the motor height. There's two screws that u just loosen and bring it up or down when the two gears are touching
Ahh... I remember that sweet, sweet noise my Brushless E-MAXX made before I made the mistake of letting someone else drive it and they crashed it and broke it in half. :( But nice vid :)
If thats the gear on the motor, I've done that many times, the set screw comes loose, sometimes coming off and you lose it. Make sure that thing is reallly tight,
I think my next video will be the next episode of The Adventures of E-Maxx and T-Maxx. It will be under a new title which we haven't decided on yet but it will be with the Brushless E-Revos and a mini E-revo (vxl) some times.
ok, I love most of your videos but you guys suck at planning a head. Bring the tools and a couple spurs if you cant learn how to set your gear mesh and tighten the motor all the way. "that gear" was a spur gear and yes they are plastic. if you put in a metal one you will start destroying diffs and other things that are more expensive and much harder to replace.
True True! He was kidding when he said that haha it's kinda a joke cause people think "Well, I'll just use a metal gear". I always just stick to the stock parts. I know how to set it with a strip of paper and running it through the gear. I have more recently just gone off "Feel" and I go all the way down then just bring it back up just a little and that has worked fantastic with no slips lately. This video was shot about a month ago so I've had more time to run.
@Buferd Ok, I would suggest (if it happens again) just loosen the slipper clutch. You might not be able to do wheelies as easy but you will save money on parts. or you can just dump more money in spur gears. I always keep a couple spare pinions and spurs.
as far as the tools go... I am usually very good about bringing my Plano pro-latch box that has all my tools and extra parts separated and easy to find. The last two outings I have just been lazy sooo hahaha. Thanks for watching out vids though we really do appreciate the support everyone gives us on our RC adventures.
HAHAHA! I feel you. That is RC in general, unless you just run it in parking lots. I have had something break ALMOST every time no matter if it was the E-Maxx or the E-Revo. Luckily though, the E-Revo has been tough and I have only fixed a broken shock cap during the time I have had it. The gear slip, like in this video, is just an adjustment when it does happen. My gear is still good so I will keep running it. Hey! PARTS ARE CHEAP when you do have to replace. I love Traxxas.
@Buferd parts aret cheap for me though!! i got my rustler a few years ago with all aluminum parts no plastic and sence then ive put a brushless an many other things on it so its the money pit. but when i was less experienced id run it into a curb and break a wheel off thats what really sucks
