lol how far out do you pull the starter? and after you replaced did you make sure it was tight? i had no probs at all with mine and still haven't changed it after having the engine for about 4 months...and just in case when you're using the starter don't completely pull it just do short tugs this will prevent you tearing them up also...you may just need to clean the one way as it may have gotten too much grease on it...and it won't work properly...but i will agree the rtr servo's are garbage i took mine out right away...the first day i got em lol
