Evening folks!
I'm a bit of an electric noob, think I know my issue but don't have any local hobby shops to confirm.
The Xmaxx I bought is a second hand 8s and I didn't strip it too far back when I bought it as it was running, I just repaired and upgraded exterior bits. I took it out for 10 mins tonight and it lost all drive and was making a horrible noise, sure enough pinion came of.
Sadly after putting pinion back on it immediately came loose, I'm assuming the shaft out of the motor isn't supposed to look as battered as mine does.
Is that why my pinion is coming off? Is it replacable or am I looking at a new motor?
