My son had managed to break a wheel off his Maisto Rock Crawler, taking it off the sofa. It looks as though the plastic housing holding the axle has snapped. Any ideas where we can get a replacement?

Maisto Rock Crawler: Can the truck be tested or powered on without a remote?

Mon, 08 Oct 2018 04:27:49 -0700

We bought a used truck at a thrift store, and it didn't include a remote. Before we invest in a replacement of the remote, we'd like to test the actual truck to make sure it works. Is there any way to test the vehicle without a remote, such as turn on the motor?

Maisto Rock Crawler: Turning radius is poor, obstruction blocking

Mon, 16 Mar 2020 10:33:36 -0700

My three-year-old recently took it upon himself to bury his Maisto Rock Crawler in the sand. The device’s turning radius is now much larger than it was. I think there is a physical obstruction within the plastic housing for the front axle. I think this because the turning radius is very poor - the wheels now only turn minimally to the left and right. The Rock Crawler goes straight forward and backward just fine. I am trying to find an online guide so that I can disassemble the plastic housing and get to the guts of the axle to clean out the physical obstruction. I have removed all of the screws of the front motor/axle housing, but I cannot figure out how to disassemble the housing. Am I overlooking a hidden screw somewhere? Maybe there is an internal latch that I do not know about? I have tried to find a schematic or instructions online about how to disassemble this front plastic axle housing, but cannot find anything. Thanks for your help!

Maisto Rock Crawler: Why is the truck just jerking and not moving forward

Mon, 18 Dec 2017 23:39:05 -0700

I recharge the battery fully and fit it to the battery slot. The remote and truck are paired and ready with green light glowing steady on both. However when I press forward/ backward the wheel just jerks a little and the green light on the truck starts blinking. However if i pickup the truck and use throttle, the wheels spin for sometime (hardly 30 to 60 secs) and afterwards start jerking. If this a problem with battery being drained/ need replacement or some other issue?
