Xsc

[RedhorseRC]

I purchased a XSC not long ago and seem to have a small problem with it. I run it for a few min's and it will throw a tire off, it dosen't matter if you locktite the nuts on or not. My friends and I ran it for one day and we went through 6 nuts and washers and pretty much ruined all the rims. Has anyone else had this problem? I should be getting new tires and rims from IMEXRC today, and I ordered adapters from 7075, Hopefully they come in in the next few days so I can run this weekend. I live in Montana and I am running out of weekends to run.

Sounds like your drive squares are loose.

We checked that and the Square drives were tight, the car was just determined to throw a wheel off every so often.

So what was happening, the nut was spinning off the axle? When I first read this post I assumed it was the common problem of the fried hub bearings.
