      Ok this just gets annoying. This is the second one that has gone wrong. its all wired up ect, but jamie reccons one of my batteries if fried. would it be the one getting hot or the other one?

      Also is there anyone with a spare battery they can help me out with. cause this is the second time its f**ked up, and im really short on cash. anyone got an original battery spare somewhere?

      how could i have shorted out a battery? could it be from the solder? maybe over heating it from trying to solder on to it??? cause it got fair hot.

      Yes you can kill batt by overheating them, the most often causeis the cells/plastic inside the bat melt form over heating the terminals.

      check your battery like what lancer said

      I found a cheap source of part like moter spair batt, rear axia so from a new toy ( well new in australia anyway) by Hotrod(or is it matchbox) sorry can’t remember, but is a slot racer car that uses the same stuff as the bits, but don’t have any stearing cos it runs on a track… oh its a good source of spair wheels too
