Tried to install a Main Drive Gear Assembly today as part of an overhaul of my Trex 450 SE V2, however once installed the screws protruding from the top of the main gear (as seen in the picture) caught on the underside of the main frame.

I didn’t actually power the unit up as it was obviously not happy and would have caused damage to the frame.

Now I don’t know everything about the Trex range but I bought this a few months back from a supplier that labelled it as TREX 450 SE V2, I've relabelled it as garbage and slung it out!

Today’s lesson was "Buy Cheap Buy Twice"!
