I just knew this would happen by how easy the plug was to pop out... I took a piece of 1/16 or so rod, heated it cherry red and burned a small hole into the tranny plug... a short piece of 20lbs test fishing line attached through the hole in the plug and one of the chassis holes secures the plug to the chassis so i won't loose it and it can't get into the gears;). just make sure you keep the fishing line or what ever you use as SHORT as possible so it don't get hung up on stuff.


Why is my response above your post??????

the first time out my'n did that. I found the motor was sucking the plug in.
I am using a different motor and it has not done it since.
