RC truck breaking everything?

[Papadirty]

Hello there. I'm just curious to see if this is normal. i've run my truck threw one bottle of fuel and already I've lost a front drive shaft, my shock towers are bent, front bumper is wrecked (thats my bad, i was learning to drive), and my throttle broke. I've only had one or two roll overs and everything else seems to have broken on the fly. The drive shaft was there, and when I stopped to fuel up it was gone. Am I too rough?

Sounds like your using it for a bumper car things don't break for no reason easy till you learn to drive find somewhere thats got a lot of open area. What kinda truck is it?

It's a red cat racing Vortex SS. Also finding it very hard to find parts for it in Canada. And I'll admit, the bumper is my bad. But I was in a open area when the drive shaft went.

iv never used one of ur trucks but iv snapped a few on mine before, driving an off road truck on the tarmac can be tough on 4wds, the extra grip wont let the wheels slide if the diffs arent set up right causing extra pressure on drive shafts etc, iv just stripped a my diff in a rustler running it on tarmac, the diff oil was very thick and i had the slipper clutch as tight as it would go. take it somewhere where theres dirt or grass etc.
