Redcat Volcano EPX Pro ... does it always break?
Ok I would like to hear some thoughts from other, for starters this is the first RC I have, is been frustrating, i bought it a little over a month ago, here is the sequences of breaks:
1. out of the box battery charged.. 1min into it the front right well comes off ... took it back to the store, they said it probably came over thigh, they change the hub and replace the screw ... 4 days later I have it back
2. as a result of #1 of of the shocks of the same wheel got bend ... back to the store ... they change too .. back to me the next day ... that was about ww
3. the car keep going slow and fast, back to the store ready to returned, try it with Lipo work just fine ... instead of returning the car that was my original position end up buying the lipo bat ... I know no comments ... about the second ww
4. try after getting the Lipo stop running after 5min or so ... back to the store, the ESC got changed, they try to change me for a changing a part of a car that has not work ... took them like 1 full ww to get the car back
5. the left rear tire came of out of the blue ... the hex "receiver" broke .. got a traxxas replacement... came of again ... needed to buy nuts
6. the rear left hub broke ... there are "voids" in the middle of the piece ... and at this time the dog bone came off it was bend, probably the cause for #5 also ... order the aluminium replacement plus the dog bone ... surprise the screws are not the same side ... needed to go and find M3x3mm
7. just today after I put it back together the wheel brakes ... again rear right
In summary I have spend more time visiting the store and finding/buying spares that I have running the car, and I'm sure I'll fix it and something else is going to break .... thought, recommendations, similar stories?
