I just bought a new #5308 Revo a week or so ago. Haven't had a chance to run it (can't wait) but I was just looking over it. To my suprise every one of the wheel hexes were loose. :whhooo: Just giving others the heads up, because it sure wouldn't have been fun losing a wheel on my first tank.
 
If I'd have only read this a few weeks ago.

I know your pain, unfortunately, they were something I had NOT checked and sure enough blew a tire. The axle dropped and dug in and my tire blew right by me......twice:angry:. I strongly recommend a soft threadlock;).
 
Mine were also loose on my 5308 along with a couple other things. I'd do a check over the entire car.
 
Always check a new or used rig. You never know, It's always better to be safe then sorry
