Soo I broke my first planetary gear and the pin was slightly bent in my center diff.. How exactly does this happen? I'm pretty good about not landing on throttle and this is the first time it's happened to me. I have Kratons/talion/noto etc etc and none of them ever had this happen even with standing backflips and all type of tom foolery lol.
 
Could be anything man I wouldn't over think it. Could have been power distribution more to the front or rear caused it could have been a defective part you just never know. Being the center diff it gets all the power and torque directly from the motor so if one thing is off its going to cause damage. Time to grab some new gears and shim it up good and hope for the best🤷

I just put it back together and the outdrive cup on the side that had the broken planetary gear seems really loose. I'm assuming I just need to add more ARA709057 underneath the pin?

Thanks btw!
