In this video we fix a slipping axle on our C24 widebody. this will also apply to MN models, JJRC and Fayee 1/16 scale RC trucks and crawlers such as C44, B1, B24, B36, MN90 series etc.
I have a little hand hammer - an 6in, 8oz stubby ball peen from Harbor Freight, I don't know if that store exists over in the UK - but I've got more use out of that tiny hand sized hammer than you would every believe, and it looks like it would be just about right for what you're doing. They retail for $3 over here.
