Oh NO!!!! That's just not cricket!!! Bad luck came in 4's and not 3's, good luck has got to follow I hope. We need to see that beauty kicking up some roosters! 🤞🙏👍
G'day mate yeah lots of fun on the sand but can be expensive have you seen sand cover's for esc and motors they are a bit expensive but savings in the long run. I love your beach footage mate you get the coolest shots💯🔥
That's mental mate..... sorry for your losses. 😢 1 thing puffing is understandable, two things in one day could be put down to coincidence..... but four things?!!! There must be more to this. Were you running a lipos, if so, do all of the readings on the charger look 'normal' when you connect the pack up? Wondering if there's been some sort of power surge? 🤔 Be interested to hear more on this one matey..... All in all, an expensive day! 👍 👍 👍
Haha, all good brother! A tough day RCing on the beach is still an excellent day! 👌 I think the gearing on the SS is the culprit. I've had similar issues with other buggies out there. The deep, loose sand makes the motor work really hard. Plus, I'm driving it like I stole it, trying to capture some epic air time shots. Sooooooo, yeaaaah.... poof! Lol! 💨💨💨💨💨
@@poorboysrc Makes sense mate...... But hey, if you managed to get some great drive footage then all good! Let's hope the video blows up (not literally! 🔥 😂)..... I'm definitely looking forward to it! 👍 👍 👍
Damn that's some bad luck. Sorry brother. Is it possible you might have some fault in either the front or rear differential? Possibly some tiny pieces of nylon plastic that maybe you missed when cutting off from the parts tree sprue? I get pedantic about that and not only cut them really finely but sometimes also shave that little tab with a blade or a file. Other things I have heard of is a guy in England saying the Nova Fox has a faulty rear gearbox/ differential. I brought a rerelease Nova Fox and never had that problem , but the guy in England said he had to buy a new gearbox differential housing and new diff gears. Just a thought . Anyway wish you the best. I was going to get a Super Sabre but opted for a Hot Shot 2 ( not block head , but the black 2024 version) instead. I'm quite a fan of the Hot Shot series of buggies from Tamiya. Good luck man 👍👌
Funny you say that, because I did not ice the front diff feels a little chunky. The tires don't rotate as freely as they should.im gonna get it apart today and take a closer look at it. 👊🏼
