Hello
I´ve been driving my Outcast only once since I bought it and that was in Spring time. After the first run I noticed the center diff is leaking - it looks like a the diff fluid ran out. It´s a mess in the chassis.
I did find the time to disassemble until today. After removing the rear of the car I tried to unscrew the motor mount screws that go into the chassis. Both were incredibly tight. I was able to unscrew one but the second was impossible and I stripped the Allen key opening (where you put the screw driver in /sorry, English is not my mother tounge).
I´m super frustrated because I don´t know what to do. I can´t remove the motor mount now. And without removing this I can´t seem to remove the center diff. Even if I managed, at some point I need to remove the motor mount!
The car is still under warranty but here in Switzerland I can´t find a local Arrma support. I would have to contact the vendor where I bought it but it´s an online shop. Before you start blaming me for not going to a local hobby shop I have to say it´s not like in the US where you have local hobby shops around almost every street corner. There is no local hobby shop nearby where I live. Getting parts is always a nightmare.
Any tips what I can do? Do you think I need to send in the car?
