t-maxx wont move and makes a grinding noise

[t-maxx_mumbler]

lol this is what i get for hitting jumps . two wrecks in one day and this time i think its a real big deal. i hit the jump and tryed a back flip but rotated to much and landed on the top . the second time i landed on all fours and when i tryed to move it it started to make a grinding noise. the spir gear is hitting on my intake now i think that i might have bent something but i dont know. when i try to drive it all it dose is sit there and rev up and jumps forward like it wants to go but it just wont.... any ideas on what it could be ? thank you so much.

You're going to have to tear it down and check the spur gear and transmission. You also could've bent the engine mount or the chassis. It could also be you bent the servo linkage to the transmission.

Sorry man, looks like you're going to be doing some wrenching!

First off check the engine mounting. Could be you broke the mount which is common with cast mounts, or the screws could just be loose and the motor shifted on landing. It's the easiest thing to check so I would start there. Make sure if it is loose that you properly reset the gear mesh.
