It is an SV it it beside the motor in the enclosure with the AM Reciever. It was a hot day but seems a little extreme to be melting plastic?

I felt the same way, "I would run the truck as often as i could"......"It probably wouldn't sit for more than 2 days." In fact you do get busy, and you do have down time. after run oil is one of the best forms of preventative maitenance, other than proper engine break-in. For peace of mind and my forgetfulness I bought morgans sidewinder fuel (20% - 10%oil) It has additives in it to eliminate the need for after run oil.......very nice!!!!!

you overtightened the lock nut on the tires, so now you need to take the wheels off and loosen up the grub screws on the wheel hex with an allen wrench, and then re-tighten them. All you did was push the wheel hex tight up against the plastic.

Status: offline 		Hello all,
I was bashing my Volcano and noticed that the front wheels was the only one pullin. The rears have stopped. No missing dogbones, and when I spin the rear tires everthing turns and the tranny spins with it. Have I blown the tranny?

Does Redcat make steel tranny gears, Mines plastic and is needing replaced. Thanks

Status: offline 		if the front wheels spin, but the back ones dont it is not your tranny because there is a single shaft that drives both the front and back. Check all of your drive cups including tranny and diff, and make sure that they are tightened. It might be that the grub screws are tight enought for you to spin by hand, but when the enging torques on it they just slip.
