About this episode
This episode provides a comprehensive solution to fix R/C gear mesh problems and loose motor mount screws.
If your R/C motor mount screws come loose this can cause a failure in your pinion gear to counter gear mesh. This is especially a problem when bashing the Grasshopper, Hornet, Grasshopper II, and Super Hornet R/C buggies. It actually has a number of causes and requires knowledge of physics and chemistry to permanently fix it properly. In this episode of the RC Deep Dive podcast we kill the bad vibes and give you the complete 3-part solution to solve this annoying gear stripping problem.
