1/10 HSP XSTR electric buggy problem
Hi RCU I have just begun the fantastic hobby that is rc. I bought a hsp 1/10 XSTR electric buggy and its been going great but after a few crashes at the jumps I seem to have done something to the suspension, shock thingy. (Sorry for my lack of knowledge!)
Its stuck in the same position and will not budge! How should I go about fixing this? Its the right wheel btw.
If the link isn't blue just put it in your search bar.

Welcome to RCU!
If your shock and the suspension arm isn't moving like the other side, it's likely you bent the shock shaft. Remove the shock from the car, and check the suspension arm for movement. Does it move freely and look normal? If not, you may have done something to the arm or the hinge pin. Otherwise, if that is ok, it's prolly the shock shaft. Order a new set of shock shafts and then rebuild that shock.
