use to happen to me either wheel square came loose,so it revs but wheels dont turn , or maybe the engine has move so the layshaft and diff gears dont touch,if you rev it and have a look you should pin point the problem.
The hub grub screws might have worked there way lose you need to take off the wheels and check caused by running on tarmac it has happend to my FG 1/6
can anyone help me ? with my petrol car i havent used it in a long time and when i start it up , its like the wheels are locked asif it were turned off even though the front wheels are ok , i dont think its rear wheel loss of drive because it moves forward as far as the wheels allow when i rev it , can someone message me please
It Sounds Asif The Ball Bearings Have Seized Up? I Didnt Use Mine For Like 2 Years Then Went To Use It And The Wheels Wouldnt Budge I Took It To The Model Shop And They Replaced The Bearings
me personaly prefere petrol alot easier to start and no need for a glow plug they are alot more reliable than the nitro only thing is that the petrol rc cars are very heavy and not recomened for jumpin as u can tell by the video lol but fueled rc cars are a great amount of fun petrol or nitro
hi thanks for the comment i have acturly took it back to the shop 5 times because of the same problem but each time the man says hes fixed it after 30 mins it loses all drive to the rear wheels as u can see is this a regular problem with urs or is it just every now and then
hi im not realy intrested in rc cars i just like little engines but i have a few questions can you run a petrol engine on nitro or the otherway round and whitch would you recoment petrol or nitro?? thanks in advance!
let me inform you about this problem because I have had the same one with my spider. This problem can happens because you drive your car on sand,which is very dangerous as I told you. On another hand,i happened to me as well,it´s because of the engine moves itself and the bell don´t work properly.Have you understood me??I recommend you to consult those possible problems to the rc shop where you bought it!! Good luck. Moreover, I recoommend you not to drive it again in order not to damage more!!
