yeah iv herd that gluing the hexes works really well if thats whats wrong
ORIGINAL: dmr bikes 4 eva
ive had this problem its your wheel hexes youll probally need a new set of wheels and hexes just checke everything else before going and buying some new wheels if it is your hexes then when you get a new set of wheels glue your new hexes into the wheels to prevent it happing again or you could buy the proline dish wheels with just a pin slot in the back plese check everything first though

yup that can be a problem loads of guys jus slam a more touque high horspower engine in there trucks and dont get that the stock truck is designed aroun the stock engine then they are in the hobby shop once a month buying the same parts rather than spend the money in the first place and upgrade the gearbox etcoh and yeah the mt2 hexes have worked well for me and there worth it.

high end .18s are too much for the rush, let alone big blocks.
Spent about an hour fixing my rush on the weekend, got it all working but in my excitement forgot to put the securing pins on the battery compartment (school boy error). Needless to say they fell out at full throttle and my rush drove square on into a wall at 40MPH+. Bent the chassis, snapped a hinge pin, snapped a shock shaft, tore the servo saver to bits and I think my £30 hitec server is dead too..
won't be doing that again..

it's the second big one I've had, both for just being really careless and stupid... Luckily the rush does take a lot of abuse, if the servo is ok it's a £10.00 fix which isn't too bad.. £10 and a hammer on the chassis..
