Doing a bit of maintenance on the Team Associated Mini MGT 3.0. After the first run i had noticed there was oil and fuel all over the back of the engine and chassis. Turns out the exhaust gasket had blown out at the top and bottom which i had suspected in my previous run.
I was also having range issues i thought it might be down to the steering servo as it seemed a bit slow and glitchy sometimes. I have swapped it out for an SRT BH9027 HV servo this is massive overkill and really wasted in this truck with the servo horn mounted saver, but i had it spare so i might as well use it. I suspect it could be a dodgy receiver, but i will change 1 thing at a time.
I have also opened the new body and trimmed it a bit more where it was required. I still need to finish the original wheels and tyres.
