Thanks!

This is the first of two videos describing the same gear issues released today. Thank you! I'll get a Tamiya kit as an introduction to (adult) RCing after all, given my reason reason to get this instead was a supposedly better quality.

On the other hand its hard to beat the price for 139.00 usd. Its a RTR with ball bearings, 22 turn motor, oil shocks and metal gears in the diff. I have many Tamiya cars that have their own problems. Thanks for watching!

@@JoevsRc Thank you, and I fully agree with you - that's why I wanted to wait for the Sandmaster in the first place. However, in Europe a cheap Tamiya kit (with motor and ESC) is little over 100 €, and the Sandmaster will be sold for around 170€, and batteries and chargers (with deans plugs) are more important than Tamiya / Carson ones.

I need one of those pinion pullers. These are a strange Kyosho. Reminds me of old toy grade RC’s

That tool does come in handy when its needed. I would put this sand master in the same class as a TT02. But it has oil shocks and metal gears in the diff

Nice upgrade!

Nice tear down Joe! Sweet Kyosho man ! I really like it! I’ve gotten spur gears like this before where the gear wasn’t finished thoroughly. It still worked, but your right , it shouldn’t of been let go like that. Will be watching Monday brother! Careful with those blades man! 🤣😖

Since I got the nice tools, I don't think I have stripped any screws

It just can't be! This is the first video I've seen of the sandmaster updated with a 1060 amp 60 esc hobbywing variant (it has 20 amps more than the original 1040) thanks for the contribution! I wonder if the sandmaster will hold up to the 1060 amp drive with lipo 2 for long periods (it's the gears I'd be worried about) but apparently there are plenty of replacement parts for this new redesign! Thank you very much for your quality content friend! My Axxe also has the 1040 shifter with the 22-turn motor.😊😊😊

I can see that no dirt got into the spur gear and pinion, I think this version is improved in such a way that it prevents dirt from getting in. (I see that the spur gear and the pinion also do not have any grease.) When you can, it would be good for you to make sure if the differential and the gearbox have any grease...regards

Not a fan of the plastic pinion, I thought it would have been metal now. But the quality of the spur not good. Nice plaster 🙂
