Holly Crap you've done it now. You got buy everything new! Just kidding. You just clip off the ends from the old rig and solder it on. Get some shrink tubing to cover the soldered area. DONT forget to put the shrink tubing on the wire before you solder. : )

The tires shouldnt come unglued. You didnt do a good enough job gluing. Clean up the wheels and tires and make sure you're using ca made for rc and do it again. Make sure you get glue all along the bead. Then put a rubber band around the tire. One on each side to hold pressure on it and let it sit. You can use a hair dryer to warm up the area a bit to make it dry faster. They should not come unglued.

I got my tires gleud on good now, but I am kinda ticked oof because I just bought brand new RPM rims and on the 7th tank there is a peic missing from the sidewall. RPM better replace these rims or I wont buy from them ever again. Also I am experincing problems with my steerign servo. IT was doing it a few days ago so I put a set of freas batteries in and it helped a little. What is happeneing is that my servo is turning really quick to one side then when it turns to the other side it is right slow adn wont go all the way. Do you think it is time for a new servo? I got my wires fixxed too.

You dont have to take the servo out. Just take the ball cup off the bell crank. Now turn the wheels by hand. If its binding it's not the servo. You have to maintain the bell cranks are this will happen eventually. A mip zero maintenance steering setup w/ball bearings is about 20 bucks. Well worth it.
