Did yours come RTR, or did you assemble it? Or did you pick it up used? I asembled mine. oddly though, the car I had before that (and OFNA ultra lx comp), came RTR and was always broke!

it was bought used as a hyper7 pro. so far, I've broke 3 drive shafts, two of my lsp diffs, an aluminum knuckle (cast alu), and lots of various arms, arm holders, c-hubs, and ect..
I think the problem is my hyper's a fat cow.. if I go 1/8 buggy again, I'll get something LIGHT. that will hopefully solve at least my drivetrain breakage, and should help w/ crashes in general.. I'm still keeping my LSP, actually working on a new drive train layout for it. I'll get to use our 3d printer at work to make the mounts.. but that's a ways off.
one thing.. when I ran the tc3 last night, it had a noticeable click.. accelerating, and coasting. I brought it inside, and took off the pinion, and it doesn't make the click when I roll it on the floor.. anyone have any ideas? even though it made clicking noises, the drivetrain was still very free..
