Sloppy Pro 3 front hubs

[hypertech]

Has anyone else had a problem with the bearings being a very sloppy fit in the front hubs on the HPI Pro 3, so sloppy that it causes the front axles & wheel to flop around more than would be normal on other touring cars ?

Would like to get as much feedback as possible on this so a letter can be sent to HPI about addressing the problem if there is one.

Is it new, are they bearings or bushings? maybe they sent you the wrong ones. you said three hubs where sloppy, can you compare the bearings to the one that isnt sloppy. Thats the best I can do. I'm sure someone else might come along with an answer. Good Luck

Mine have a slight amount of play in them, less than 1mm. Don't worry about it.

My Pro 3 came with bearings not bushings, has like 5+ mm of slop at the wheel which is caused by the sloppy fit of the bearings in the hub. There is like at least 1 mm of air around the OD of the outer bearings, same inside too from what I see.
