tt-01 problems
 
ok i have a tt-01 and its working perfectly apart from one thing. the whell nuts keep coming lose. i have tried using new nuts but the problem still persists. does anyone have any good ideas? and is this a common problem with this car.

A guess would be that the wheels are a poor fit on the hexes so as the wheel moves on the hex it undoes the wheel nuts. Ive got 3 TT-01's and havn't had this happen but I'd be tempted try different wheels and try a but of threadlock on the nuts.

ok then i'll try that. also if i was to get the hexs from the car the wheels came from would that help?

Its worth a try. You could also try using the new type of lock nut that use a serrated flange that grips the wheel. I use them on my 501 and they will not come off without a fight,
