What did you break today?

[joshludden]

I had to make a decision today, crash or hit some dumb kit on a dirt bike. It's still drivable, just gotta get the hammer out and buy a new wing mount.
I also broke the shock rod end but fixed that in the field. While I was fixing the shock rod end that dumb kit ran head on into another kid on a 4 wheeler........

What’s the worry ?

I run mine to 600f regularly.

lol JK Is that motor dead ?

My buddy said he thought he was about to hit low voltage cause it was seriously down on power. So if the motor isn't cooked, its never going to the the same again!

Ah poop! always a hard choice between doing the right thing and doing the thing that would be best for the gene pool.

I can imagine all the beeps that would have been in the video.

Looks good!

After a great rip in the gravel/blacktop lot hit lvc so pulled the lid to check temps & noticed the ominous black stripe inside. Took it inside to inspect- somehow the center diff exploded ☹ & apparently when I pried the pinion off w/ the broken mip driver in it I bent the motor shaft. Now it must be causing all sorts of problems. Pinion grub screw came loose, the wobbly motor shaft is chewing up the new 20t pinion too. It also looks like I need to try to resurrect my lipo

So I don't have pics because all I do now is repair and go. Kraton at the bmx park yesterday. Front left driveshaft kept popping out. Put it back in three times on site and kept bashing. I've got an rpm lower arm there and it's just too damn flexible. Fourth time was the game ender when I noticed one of the output cups had a piece sheared off. Also broke to shock ends on the Losi LMT, but that's a different conversation. When I got home and began the tear down on the Kraton, noticed the front gear box was mangled too. Only thing holding it on was two screws from the front. New gear box installed, changed the cup on the dif, shaved off about 5mm on the lower arm and about 2mm on the upper. Looks good and ready for action. Oh, and this also happened off one jump

@Notorious J Ya gotta admit, makes for some awesome photos! Just not something you want to see before landing.
