Just my luck... I got my HPI Micro Mod 45T Motor yesterday in the mail. I installed the new motor today and took it outside in a parking lot to test it out. I didn't even drive it around for 5 minutes and I flip/rolled my DRR and it bent the rear axle. Anyone know of any quick fixes? Is trying to straighten it an option? There's probably no way I'll be able to make it 100% straight if I tried to bend it back.

Thanks,

Ryan

You can buy a replacement axle HERE (http://www.horizonhobby.com) . I did a search for "dynamite axle" and found it quickly. Less than $5.00.

Ooh! I have an Idea! Take a welder's torch, and heat the axle up, and then bend it back! Whoa! I had way to much caffiene today!
