im leaning towards slipper pegs - when its in the air you can get the tires to balloon - when on the ground no - are you sure that the pegs on the slipper are ok?

This is a problem I have incountered. If you put the truck on the floor can you turn the spur by hand with out truck moving? If so what turns and what don't. Check and make sure you did not shear the pegs on the pressure plate. If you did it will slip. It is not the slipper is bad but the pressure plates them selves.


Peace!

guys guys guys....

i have been running the truck all damn day LOL. i dunn owhat the problem was. i took abart my ear end and opened the diff case and than put everything back together and it runs AMAZING. 7xl and 21020 on 14 cells is nuts. i cannot wait to drop 16 cells in it.

My motor seems to be geetting hot but it might be because it is not getting airflow because my speed control is ontop of it because i have no where to mount it yet. all the weight is on the front of the truck but i can still flip it on it's lid effortlessly.

I broke a gorillamaxx battery strap though. the nut ripped right through the strap. i went head on into wood. nothing happend. i was whipping through the wet field behind my house a WOT as well. this truck is the best!

if you have a voltage meter you could check those batts voltages.


The problem with nitro's these days are that they arent brushless... LOL
