Very Bad Day for the Revo!
This is what happened to me today, I got about 5 tank's through it today, beautiful weather, thing's are going great, then half way through the 6th tank, I was making a high speed pass and all I herd was a grinding noise, a loud pop and it stopped dead in it's track, I pulled the engine of took it apart and this is what I found!

I am sure Traxxas will handle their biz and keep you happy. I usually defer to operator error on big problems, but that is obviously a manufacturing/tolerance problem.
