Mad Force rolling resistance?? How Much??
Hi Guys,
I have just finished building my Madforce RCX Edition and have been going through the break in procedure for about 5 tanks now.
What I have noticed is that if you push the Truck by hand along the ground (with or without the motor running) it seems to catch a snag every now and then. As you push it occasionaly it kind of locks up a little and then as you keep pushing, it kind of gets through this stage and keeps going??
Is this normal on the MF??
Thanks in advance.
Shaun.

RE: Mad Force rolling resistance?? How Much??
i have a savage 25, not a mad force, but i had the same problem and it was the pinion gear in one of differentials, the front, but it could be either for you. the teeth on the pinion gear snaped for me. you may wnat to check them to make sure thats not the problem or not.
