Do all RC trucks roll? I switched the engine in my redcat earthquake to a sts .30 and i had to change the clutchbell to the new sts .30 I dont remember before if the truck rolled freely when i push it but I know it dosent now. The clutchbell spins freely so its not the motor, its the truck itself. Is that how its suppose to be?

yeah you don't want things to drag

It should roll with as little resistance as possible when the clutch is disengaged.

it should role pretty freely with the engine not running. make sure the clutch isn't dragging or maybe the brakes

how do i make sure nothing isnt grabbing? its not the engine because its the same way with the engine out..

Remove individual drivetrain components and test, that way you can isolate and see where the friction is.

Make sure the brakes are not on, to test this turn on your radio and receiver and pull the trigger and try to roll the truck, if it then rolls freely you justneed to adjust the brakes.
