Had my first real session with the Outcast today and it was fun while it lasted. The 3 screws that thread into the aluminum motor mount through the chassis all backed out and then the torque twist from the motor caused the pinion to shred 3 teeth off. Luckily a friend had some pinions in his box and I was able to get it back up and running. shortly after the wing mount gave it up. It was actually kind of fun to run it without the wing and wheelie bar. Overall it wasn't a total bust but I wasn't expecting any failures like that. Wasn't even bashing all that hard. Oh well...
Moral of the story, apparently they didn't threadlock the motor mount screws. Check yours!
