Holy crap, what happend here....

Aite, on my new DI I got a 15 T in it and I didn't have the right gears or else I would burn out the esc or motor, so I went to buy a 23 T worked fine but I could never get the allen in rightly so it just keep on coming out. Then yesterday it came out but fully and I lost the allen. I cant put another one in because the for some odd reason Tamiya's allen screws don't fit in Robinson Pinions. So I put in my 26 T to see how it turns out. Ran the car for 3 secs and then i hear Some very odd noise and the motor isn't sounding right. Take the car in check it out... then I see that the missing allen screw somehow lodged itself into the plastic gear cover.. What the...?? this isn't technically passable. heres some pic's.

That thing was in there pretty tight. The motor/ esc runs way too hot wit the 26 T I'am gonna have to get some thread lock.
