You can't use those axles with the Losi transmission, there is not enough reduction. You either need to swap in an Axial transmission, or go back to Losi axles.

Still not enough. The Losi tranny is nearly 1:1, while the Axial tranny is considerably higher (can't think of the exact ratio at the moment). The Losi axles have buttloads of reduction in them, like 127:1 or something. You aren't going to get that with a 4:1 reduction unit. Besides, once you've spent time and money cobbling something together that MIGHT work, you could have just put the known right parts in and been done with it.

I agree with Duuuuude...swap the axial trans in, or go back to Losi axles.
