Default RE: Mega Force Troubles

Hello Mike_p,

I have worked on my friend's Mega-Force, and I have a Kyosho Dodge Ram. Both trucks have the Kyosho Quick Reverse Control, but I think the Mega Force has a much beefier unit.

The QRC does create some uncool noise when it engages. Will the truck run OK after the uncool noise? Any way, my friend did manage to strip the reverse gears by engaging the reverse while the truck was going forward at high speed. After that, the gearbox was very noisy as you described. My guess is your QRC gearbox is damaged. You can either replace the gears inside the gearbox( The big box that is right in front of the engine.) or use the FORWARD ONLY conversion that should come with the kit. Then the Mega-Force will only have forward & brake like any other trucks. Hope this is useful.
