Car: Arrma Vorteks
Problem: Wheels hard to turn
I took apart what I’m calling the rear gearbox (is this correct terminology?) because the Vorteks had crazy resistance when manually spinning the wheels by hand. Once taken apart it is still very stiff and seems like the large gear is pressed up against the plastic (on both sides!) not sure how this would happen, or what the fix is. Same problem with the front wheels although I haven’t taken it apart yet. I assume its from driving in the rain, it’s actually the first time I’ve gotten the car wet. What should I do? Anything I can do to make it better with water?
