| A little help here please - problem solved :-)
I got the wraith kit mostly put together today. The front and rear wheels are turning in opposite directions. My guess is that one of the axles is backwards. 1. As viewed from the front, which direction should the spur gear turn for forward (cw or ccw?). Cw rotation results in the front going forward and back rotating in reverse. Can any of you wraith experts spot the problem? Thanks!! Last edited by Lambo1; 03-26-2014 at 07:11 PM. Reason: Problem solved |

I can't remember exactly but I think it's CW rotation is forward. Either way the ring gear needs to be opposite front to back, so yes you have one of them in wrong. No big whoop, that's the beauty of the wraith axles, easy to change those around. I could check when I get home tonight, but I'm sure someone else will answer before I do. Dna |

DNA, I think you are exactly right. The instructions show the ring on the long side of the axle but upon closer inspection, the diagram at the top does show that the rear should be flipped so that the ring is on the short side. Thanks again. Lambo |
