|  gear case cracking
Does anyone else have problems with this.... I just replaced the cases and they cracked again. My screws must be too long, does anyone have a way around this?  |

I don't know if I am using too big of a screw or what the deal is. I just put new cases on and the same thing happened.

I've never had that problem. :? I use the shortest 3mm screw for that mounting point. |

Question. Does your steering servo mount on that side?

Guessing that the servo is putting alot of strain on that mount and it, combined with a longer screw, is creating your problem. Just guessing. Could try to mount it on the other side, maybe a different mounting location altogether. But that is probably a last choice.

It's all sorted, I have the stick axle brace for the servo. As Grizz says, the screw I used was too fat cracking that area.
