Has anybody ever ripped the tranmission from a G2R before -
01.14.2007, 12:10 AM
I was showing off to a bunch of people today and was doing backflips off a tree, while in the middle of a flip, I had the throttle pegged trying to pull it out and the front tires hit at the same time, when it landed, I pulled the throttle to do it again, it rattled so i investigated and the transmission was completely detached from the X-brace (shafts still in place). Has anybody ever done this, Just curious.
My setup: strobe with 13/51 9XL and mamba max esc 4s lipo's also running the half trans. with stock case People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise |

I managed it with a G2 if that counts, gearbox came right out of its position, fell out the side of the shell. Although there were a few stripped holes in that gearbox case.

I haven't done it yet, and I have had some real nasty crashes with it. I used longer screws and held it in by nuts though. However, I only did it on one side, since hte other side it is obstructed.

I fixed it with nuts on one side and longer screws on the other they dig a little into the gearbox but not bad enough to intefere with the gears.
Jhautz I have no video camera so can't get a vid of it, its actually more of a flair, it lands 180* to the aproach, if done right. my next door neighbor has a tree with the perfect angle to attempt People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise |

Its not much different from doing a backflip on a ramp, you got more angle so it might be easier. You just need to find the right tree

I'll try sometime this week to get a flip but there is rain forecast here for mon. or tues. so it might have to wait. I have a strong belief of not running my stuff for two days after it rains. Don't get me wrong, I love the water, but not when running my RC's
