Default stalling
i was playing with my xmod and it made a high pitch noise and slowed down but still ran, now when i hold the tire and press the trigger the car wont go but the motor still runs?
i took it apart and saw that the gears werent fully together, how should i fix it?

Not the correct spacer or pinion gear ? Tighten the entire rear end, see if that helps. A clearer picture will also help.

ok, i you should have a button with this symbol:

its called "macro" it helps you take clearer pics on small objects

and also, dont press the picture to take the pic all the way, if you press it just a little bit you should see small squares where the camera wants to focus better, just make sure the gears are in one of them then take the pic
