Actually the opposite worked better.
Seemed to run a lot smoother after being fully build.
But it only grinds a little in a certain place when rotated.
I have a feeling one if not both idle gear are a little on the poor molding side of things!

Slipper time!

Ruffen up the slipper pads a little.

Place a M2x0.2 shim over the slipper shaft followed by a slipper plate.

Push the slipper pads in place onto the spur gear.

On goes your other slipper plate followed by the spring, slipper spring ring & M4 lock nut. Tighten down all the way ready for setting it up later.

You rear end should look something like this by now!
Ready for the motor now!

As I said at the start I going to be running the HPI Flux Pro system in this buggy. I got mine from Adrenaline Models for a great price!.
I'm running a 10.5T motor in this as I didn't want make to quick or the mark!

Bolted in place. Something missing but can't think what

Hmm now where do I fit new brushes?

Next up is the gear cover. Slot in the slipper cover & screw it in place a M3.5 screw.

Secure the gear cover to the gearbox with two M3.5 Button head screw.

Place you gearbox assembly onto the rear of the chassis & put four m3x8 flat heads to hold it in place ready for the rear arm build.
