RE: T-maxx problems
well i figured out one of the problems, the gear was stripped, I replaced it with a spare i had sitting around(new 66t) and its still doing the same thing. I think i am going to take it to my LHS and have them fix it, seeing that i have no clue what i am doing with a nitro powered truck, I am an electric guy. This is my first Nitro. So i am going to need a lot of help.

T-maxx problems
Well this is my first official post on RCU, I just picked up this t-max 2.5 today and i had to replace the glow plug. And now that i got it running it keeps wanting to slip when i give it throttle. I have searched, and i have come up with nothing, I am getting quite frustrated with this already and i haven't owned it for 24hrs yet. I also have checked the gears they mesh correctly. i have tried 2 different sets of gears. i have a 66T gear that came on it,an extra 66t gear and the stripped 72t gear that orig came on the truck. I would appreciate any feedback
