    When it's running and you give it some throttle does the engine rev? Or does it do nothing? Is the truck even responding to the transmitter? A little more infor would be better. If it is responding to the transmitter then I would check the slipper clutch and make sure it's tight enough. If it is then I would start looking into possible broken gears in the transmission and move in that direction. If It's not even running then I would probably start with a glow plug and re-tune back to stock needle settings and go from there. And please excuse me if I'm wrong I'm still fairly new to nitro. But not the hobby. so Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong somewhere.

    The first thing I would check is the slipper, is the slipper adjusted correctly?
    If yes are the slipper pads(3) still there?

    Which model T maxx do you have?
    Knowing which model will help to get you the correct answer as there are differences between the models.

    Do you have reverse? If so try and shift it in reverse see if it will go then back to forward.
    I wanted to put a really cool signature but I ran
