All the extra power put through the drive shafts on my FG had stripped the splines.
heath's have fixed it for me FOC (i agreed to pay, but they were having none of it!!!)
They have "on-board" battery checkers in stock now if anyone wants one...
i'll be down there tomorrow if anyone needs any bits....

John.. if possible.
Buy yourself a Titanium Nitride coated gear set.. you'll never strip them.
Ive alot of Ti Ni on my race car and although expensive... theyre well worth it!!

Got one mate.............
the problem i'm having is that there is so much power the screws fly out that are holding the gear tooth together. i have gone through 3 sets of screws, i have used thread lock on 2 sets and let them dry over night....take it out and less than 5 mins later they have come undone...i even had Tony @ heaths rc models put a set in....he said if these go, then put the plastic gear in
lasted about 10 seconds once tweeked.
I'm going to super glue spur gear to housing, and then super glue srews in....
