My Flux arrived in the mail today, and I LOVE it. But the noise from the pinion worries me. Should it be this loud? It freewheels real nice, NO problem.
I have adjusted the pinion with the papir strip so that should not be it.

From what I read this is the way it should be?!

If you start to see the pinion get really shiny and metel shaving then that means your wearing your pinion down

Yes, this is one sick truck! WOW this thing got power!

Will buy me a RX for my futaba 4pk, I don't feal safe with that AM radio.

At the moment I'm running SPC 7.4 8000mAh lipos. They are only 20c. I read on some other forums that they are powerfull enough even though they are 20c. Is this correct?
