Default motor go BOOM

Well, I think I figured out why the clutch was acting up. Evidently the rod cap came loose and wasn't allowing the motor to get enough rpm's to operate the clutch correctly. I was gonna take a video of it to send to Tom to show what it was doing but it exploded before I could shoot the video.



Here's a few of the pieces I could find.



Looks like I'll be using the other 420 I have that I got from Hookm sooner than I expected.
