Cars slowly losing it..

Ive relized that my 1 month old bit char-g car is slowly losing preformance.. and i have no mods on it yet...

Car problems...

1) The axle on the car is slowly wearing down the plastic holding the axle... and it might come out eventaully..

2) My car's runtimes slowly decreasing...

3) Now I cant control the car when its charging.. (i used to be able to.. now its just studders)

Comments r welcome on how to fix this or etc... keep in mind its just a 1 month old car driven daily... and i clean it everyday

1) I only take out my rear axle if absolutely necessary. Repeatedly removing and replacing that axle will cause wear on that plastic. I know others have reported this to you too, but I just don't see there being much wear just from normal use. I think people have fixed this by applying small amounts of epoxy in the axle mounts, the redrilling the holes.

2)New battery? Most people yank that Tomy battery soon after buying a new bit. Do you doublecharge?(of course I would suggest replacing controller batteries also)

3) Why would you want to control the car while it is charging? All you are doing is wasting your charge.
