Default Drive pin covers..

Hey chaps,

I have had a rear drive pin snap/come loose for the 2nd time now. And think it may have destroyed a new lipo pack

What cover's are people using on there drive pins-I know some kits came with a black cover type thing. But I got mine used and did not come with them. I have been using it uncovered for months. But only recently had issues and want to make/buy a cover for it to help. I have heard of using heat shrink and so on, but was wanting a more robust method any ideas??

cheers gents

Jamie

Following identical problem after two runs when I bought the car ver. 1 in 2010, I systematically put some heat shrink tube - no issues ever since...

Yeah ideally after a more durable method if possible. As hear the heat shrink can split sometimes and easily let the pin wear through. What size heat shrink did you guys use?
