Oh...yeah...sorry. Trying to get stock motor out of the mini T, and micro monster in. I got the stock motor out but i had to use quite a bit of force. And i need the gear that goes on the motor spindle. Do i take it off the stock motor? If so, its not coming off.

"use the force" just take a flat head screew driver and place it between the motor can and the pinion and pry the thing off. to mount the new motor you have to drill a new hole for the bottom motor mount.

Crap, i messed something up. I dont know what it is, it makes a high pitched sort of scraping noise when the wheels turn. The faster, the louder. I checked everything and nothing that turns it touching anything. BTW its with the stock motor. what the hell did i do?

damn my noobish ways...

check your pinion spur mesh. and make sure the pitch is just right... i found that some pinions i used on my m18 dont work too good on my mini-t.

well take of the pinion and take the mini t and roll it back and forth on the table or floor fast and see if you hear the noise still if so then its inside the dif. your gonna have to take that apart and see how everything looks etc.. good luck m8

Alright I installed the mini monster and got the pinion onand the noise isnt so loud now. but the pinion slips! (the gears dont slip, just the spindle) the spindle is too small! Should i put glue on it or something? Ill be going to an RC shop this weekend in cary to see what the guy can do for me.

EDIT: No cussing allowed.
