Hornet 2 slipping tail gears

[Daniel Jetschin]

Hi

I don't get my tailgears to hold on the tail shaft and torquetube .. I put some new gears onto the tail shaft but it won't stuck on tight :twisted: and the one in the front won't hold on too .. i did use CA on the front one, after cleaning all oil residues off, same at the tail but without CA. The shafts are metal... I know why i love T-Rex's ... :arggg:

As long as its the metal drive shaft and not the cf one, perhaps epoxy would grip better? Make sure to get a micro pinion puller to get the gears off easier.

I'm new to Hornets so I'm just building. Might check the back threads in MS Hornet section at www.runryder.com for gear suggestions.

Gear mesh is also very important from what I've read. Too tight or not sitting right on the shaft could also cause slippage.
