Re: VexPro Drivetrain popping while driving
We noticed a similar problem on our drive train today. After some investigation we believe it's the bearings moving in their seat. We have a custom chassis and a few of the bearing holes were deburred after powder coating a little too vigorously. I don't have enough experience to know if it will cause problems later on since it's the first time I have had this problem. The bearings aren'ts spinning in the holes they are just able to move a little, we'll be making our spacers a bit tighter to keep the flange fully seated.
