riverat1540 · **Neu motor shaft snap! -** 04.11.2009, 01:55 PM

i couldn't believe it. but my neu 1515 1y has the power to break itself. im running a 5s zippy 5000 on my crt and i had badlands on it in the grass and gave it full trigger off the line and the shaft on the motor actually snapped right after the bearing. i cant that was the weak link in my drivetrain. thankfully its still under warranty but i think its time for mikes slipperential when the funds allow me to buy it. till then i will definatly be setting my punch control on my mamba and probally reducing the brake power as well. now i see why something like the slipperential is worth it especially if it saves u a motor., sorry no pics i was in a hurry to send it to neu for repair, does anyone know how long they take to replace or repair?
