Just got a new rc 18t and its making a wierd clicing noise. It doesnt seem to be lacking in any performance since me and my friend were racing and they were about the same. The noise seems to be coming from somewhere by the tires but i dont know :p Gears all seem fine. Its just annoying i cant even here my car over clicing noise :cry:

The 18T's most common clicking source is caused by the diffs not being properly shimmed and the ring gears skipping.

I dont know anyone who likes the trinity motors.

For the cost the best motor you can get is a 6V Speed 300 they are only about $12 and as fast as a Baja
