I would say it kinda seems like Axial was rushing to get these puppies out the door, or maybe just a risk of foreign packaging. Mine came with a crack in the tx wheel. I don't know if it was the shipper or not. I'm not gonna complain to them though, works fine...

PS I don't see how a link would be broken in shipment. I was jumping this thing off six foot hight cliffs yesterday and didn't break a link...

Are you sure it didnt have the manual? its kinda hidden in between 2 layers of cardboard under the truck. If i hadnt ripped mine out like a savage in the parking lot of Tammies I would have missed it.

Actually yes but i replaced the back links with HR bent links off of the ax10 and switched the rod ends up a little and it does fine. I have noticed that the spur cover is over heating the motor by not letting the motor or trans breath any. My motor started to heat up bad yesterday and well started to smoke and is done. The gearing is very bad to the pinion is a 20 and i think thats another reason it over heated. Im wondering if axial will replace the motor because that was the first run i have had on it but there is no telling. So far my feedback on the 20 turn is its not a good crawling motor at all ill put in my 27 turn an go from there.
