|  Possible water damage
i did search and did'nt find anything. i normaly hop around in some muddy water and never had any problems. well i found some mud/water and after about 5 mins i left and hit the rocks. no problems, then i pick it up and walked about 50 yards for some other rocks, and i have no steering:neutral: , grab the wheel and turn it thinking my return spring broke, nope...then i have no throttle, take it inside wipe it all down clean it up, plug her back in and shes goin by HERSELF no throttle  then stops then goes with the back wheels, then stops and now its just glitching(sp)here and there. any ideas on whats the deal?..like i said i found nothing like this on any past threads, so here i am.right now im at the point of taking the rear apart and drying, the front is still closed up.is it toast? or is there a chance it'll still live?..anything helps! still a fawking newb here Sean |

it sounds like the electrical board got to wet. just let it dry on its own and it should work, it worked for me

even if the water only went up to the axles? just curious  edit:just pulled of the cover and found a few drops of water, so maybe:? , im hoping. i have the front axle opened up so it can breath. sucks cause i know that Nylint won't cover a fawk up on my part and im too nice to take it back, just cause Nylint is so damn cool with everyone else. oh and what was your 1:18 acting like?..i mean everything  Last edited by Sean; 10-13-2005 at 08:00 PM. |
