Flux problem

[Mike Selby]

Just got myself a SAVAGE Flux v2 and had it out about 6 or 7 times with no problems at all, I've not yet done anything crazy with it just running it about in a field, not been jumping it or bashing it. Then it started making a strange noise a metal bell ringing sound and stopped moving. In both forward and reverse its the same but no power is getting to the wheels. This is my first rc and not really sure what's wrong, any help or suggestions on fixing this problem.
Many thanks.

Sounds like crunched diff gears, try having savage/wheels off ground & turn front wheel & listen for noise then do the same with rear wheel.
HPI has a 2 year warranty so worth an email to them!
