RC Driving Style
Well, i got my first nitro car 2 days ago and have been breaking it in in the garden. I took a corner too wide and wanged the side of the shed with the wheel. I wasn't going that fast. When i picked it up the wheel was mangled but i noticed it was just the axle pin that was out of place. I turned the wheel and it pinged back into place fine.
I can't remember if i ran another tank through after that.

Before i went out to ride it again i did the standard tests, i turned and it was frail to turn left. I turned right and it clicked a few times then started just whirring.


Have i busted the servo? (I've ordered a new one for it anyway)
 
Well i got round to opening the servo up today and most of the gears are completely stripped.. Chinese crap!

Anyway, new servo comes tomorrow so ill be backk to driving in no time.
