Kyosho USA-1 transmission problem
[TABLE="class: tborder, align: center"]
[TR]
[TD="class: alt1"]I just purchased a vintage Kyosho USA-1 that was supposed to be ready to run. No luck, the truck motors spin, the steering is not very reactive. THE PROBLEM is that while both motors perform as they should there is no power getting to the wheels. So, engines spin well but neither front nor rear axles spin. PLEASE HELP.

Check to make sure none of the set screws on your main drive shafts have come out or missing. Make sure your remote doesn't have the sensitivity turned down on the steering servos.
Post some pics...I just got one of these myself. Cant find an idler gear for mine or or anyone to advise me where to look. Good luck!
