Hi guys, I'm brand new to rc and had a problem while building the amp kit. The attached pic sums up the problem.
I have contacted the retailer here in Western Australia where I bought it from and they responded as follows:
"Yes, it just looks like when the screw was first put in, it has cross-threaded itself. That part does not have a thread in it, the thread is cut as you wind the screw in. As that is part of the steering assembly, it is required to move freely... We sell replacement parts so you can start again if you can not rectify it."
Clearly he is putting it down to human error. Does that sound reasonable to you guys? It was strange because both screws on the right hand part went in crooked so seemed more like the holes were drilled incorrectly on that one or something. But I'm brand new to rc and have never built anything like this so I'm not sure.
Any advice about what to expect of the retailer or how to manually rectify a cross thread like this would be really appreciated.
(I mentioned this problem in my introduction post yesterday but thought it could be worth re-posting here. Sorry if that's annoying).
Cheers
