In the case of the plastic gearboxes...the primary gear (the first big one that meets the pinion gear of the motor) is three pieces ....the metal shaft and two nylon gear pieces...the inner spins on the outer....I think HL and other manufacturers that still use the plastic gear boxes..put that in as a safety...so you don't strip the plastic ....anyway...you have to remove the gearboxes and separate the metal cages ...or take them apart lol...remove that three piece gear ...get some two part epoxy or epoxy putty and fill the open space...make sure the gear surface is level when the epoxy is dried...you can sand it a little to make sure...then you just reinstall the gear and you should be good to go...A lot of guys won't admit it...but there is a bunch of people that still use the plastic gearboxes....they are much quieter than the metal and if properly taken care of ..can last just as longSteelBird wrote:ALPHA, how to lock those clutch?
Was it you that showed me that hull before?....It's really nice looking...and the price is very good...too bad there isn't one for my Abrams...I take that back...I've seen one...but they want like a 1000 US for it..and it only has one motor in it ...so it's a clutch drive like the old Tamiyas ...don't quite like that idea as it means you have to upgrade everything...not worth it for me here in Hawaii...that hull looks perfect as I could still run the normal HL componentsSteelBird wrote:One of the reason I don't upgrade anything on this Leo2 is I plan to buy a full metal lower hull. The lower hull advertised on taobao.com include metal lower hull, full closed metal gearboxes with 550 motors, metal road wheels, idlers and drive sprockets. Of course, metal tracks too but no electric or battery. The lower hull works perfect with HL's upper hull, and the package costs RMB2200 which translate into $360. When time comes, I will do it. Now still waiting for my Tiger I components.
