Hello everyone,
First time posting and hope you RC guru's could help out. I just purchased a Losi 8ight-T Electric 3.0. A custom built buy from eBay.
First run, it has a loud grinding noise where the motor and transmission gears meet. The seller suggested a fresh battery. I charged up, went to the park, even with the loud grinding, I gave it a little go and broke a pinion gear. I just got some new ones in, and still the same, just really loud. I've tried to adjust it, but still loud. W/o the motor mounted, no sounds, so I'm thinking it's those gears. I'm literally on hold with Losi support, been about 30 mins, so I'm not hopeful with them
I've out of RC for a while, so these newer cars are a bit foreign to me.
Any help is mucho appreciated!
Cheers all!
