Hi all!
Newbie here. New to RC.
I have a stock Monster GT with the 4.6 engine. Bought it new and have had for a year or so. I have finally got it running pretty good. Although I still need to do some tweaking with the HSN and LSN the truck does run pretty good.
The issue I have is about 50% of the time, when I give the truck full throttle, it seems as if the gears are stripped. Today I was driving/adjusting the truck and I clearly heard the engine rev and the wheels not spin for a second. Almost as if it is slipping out of gear. Other times, the truck blasts off like crazy. I have tightend the slipper clutch and dont know what else to do. I have not yet disassembled the transmission to do a visual on the gears to see if something is stripped.
I know the shift point from 1st to 2nd can be adjusted, I am wonder if there is an adjustment needed from "neutral" to first?
Now that I think about it, I believe I have the same issue once shifted into reverse.
Any ideas from the pro's would be greatly appreciated!
