Tamiya TRF801Xt-e

Just wanted to update this thread a little bit and add to the action lately.

I haven't had much time to spend with any of my RC vehicles lately, but over the last week I started getting this one up and running again.

This truggy has very little run time so far. I put a old battery in it and it fired right up the first time and it was all going good until one of the pins that holds the rear hub into place came loose. I have been having a problem getting these pins to stay in place since it was built.

Here is a picture. Please let me know if I'm referring to any of these parts by the wrong name.



I thought I could find a metal spring clip to go around this and hold the pin into place. I ended up using a rubber gasket / seal that I had laying around the house.

One of these,

Has anyone else had a problem like this before?

Thanks,
Nick
