Kraton How this is even possible?

Just wondering if their is some sort of setting/upgrade to avoid this!

 

[Rcproponent]

From the looks of it your gonna need an upgraded motor now.. or at least a replaced one.. what happened ? ?

 

[madf78]

Nothing special, just normal bashing !
I have the hw 800kv motor waiting for the mount.

 

[Rcproponent]

Nice. I went with the PPS mount, @PPS-RC does awesome work ??

 

[PPS-RC]

Yeah, I have seen that a few times with the stock motor. Arrma usually warranties it. Sucks though!

 

[madf78]

Seriously warranties it?!
Waiting on the m2c Upgrade pack, but been on hold at customs for the past 12 days !

Yeah. I'm not ARRMA or anything so I can't say for sure, but I have seen this problem happen, and people get replacement motors under warranty. You just need to contact them.

I am still amazed at the warranty services Arrma provides. Sometimes it can be a pain, but I've had things replaced they had no business replacing under warranty, and I even explained the whole honest situations and how it's likely all my fault.

As far as customs and shipping overseas from the US... Don't get me started! There's a bunch of my customers still waiting for their packages from last month. Covid has really done a number on shipments.

Thanks you for the info, I will contact arrma and be patient for customs (nothing else I can do anyway)!

Seems to be US customs with the issues. I’m in Canada and I just got a Banggood order in 8 days flat from China. That was $6 shipping by regular Canada Post - nothing expedited.

PPS-RC I need to find a link to your site. ?

Might want to see if your motor mount is bent. Only think I could think that would do that is a bent chassis, bent motor mount or a rock got between the pinion/spur.

I snapped a motor shaft off once, but it was a small 1/8" shaft. It was cold out (30F) and I hit a post at a decent speed. Guessing the chassis flexed and the motor shaft didn't. Was a stampede 4x4 and castle 3800kv motor.

How this is even possible?

Cheap china metal, mass production, poor QC. That or you had a Monday motor. You should see their planes and ships.

The chassis is bent alright!

that was my guess. the chassis flex/bent so much it pushed on the bottom of the can.
