ouch.... Nice job on that clutchbell, i haven't seen one stripped like that before! What mill did that?
What happen to the lipos! I haven't seen a LiPo puff like that before, haven't been driving hard enough i guess :Mr.confused:

 

[J1A1H]

nice work... was the clutch bell done with the picco? seems like it that was done by a brushless motor!
What happend to your lipos to puff like that???
And what the hell man? how did you strip your ace? I have had some bad cartwheels with my much heavier savage and never stripped my gears!!!

 

[JoeGuam]

A hard cart wheel at approx 45+ MPH did the ds1015 damage.

I cant figure out the LiPo. Been a while using them but now it is done with, so off to get new LIPOs for my sons brushless.

The Clutch Bell damage was using the AB modified Picco and Fioroni Clutch. I looked at everything all bolts fastened, new motor and engine mounts, but maybe a bad mechanic on the line up. The ERCM did some wear before but not as quick. Somewhere there is a single point failure or the powerhouse is just to much for some of my parts.

 

[J1A1H]

well i have gone through around 4 pinions in the last 20 LiPo runs. Which is ridiculous... I personally think its the power of the brushless motor, but people are saying its something else.

[frddyj]

any you guys with the AB Mills gonna post up some video for us? :dunno:

 

[Jon]

what kind of spur gear do you have? my guess is you have a hardened steel spur... you need to have a hardened clutch bell to match it or you will strip the clutch bell like you did.
