Great post! Even after almost 10 years, still helpful.

Clutch issues can be resolved by changing the gear ratio (see link). I've just bought a 2nd hand set, and this helped me. That is why I'm positing to this old thread. might just help somebody else...

Just bought this set second hand and saw this thread. Although it's old it helped me, so that is why I'm replying. The solution is: Use a black 4 length shaft (instead of the grey 5 length), and more importantly use a gear with 12 teeth and a gear with 20 teeth! (the combination of an 8-24-gear does not fit with an L-shaped beam later on in the building process) A link to a nice summary: (FYI: for me the ''making the left track running smoothly" did not work)
