Decided to give my rc car a lookover of the driveline. Mainly because im running a 6s esc and 6s batteries in a car designed for 4s. So being proactive as opposed to my style of being reactive. Driveline wise she looks apples, gears arent worn, axles arent showing any signs of twisting. So with all my previously broken axles it proves that the cheapskate always pays twice. So the ones i have in there were twice the cost of the stock ones that twist as if they're made of playdough, and 3 times as much the chinesium axles that last a lot longer then the stock ones but snap like kit kats. The expensive axles, for the amount of runs ive had from them with no breakage and they look mint, have actually worked out cheaper.
But reasonably pleased that the driveline has held up. Throwing 50% more power, thats typically a recipe for parts failure.
