Still fairly new to rc and this is my first 2wd. I have the brushless ruckus and last time I had it out I was taking a turn on a gravel path at the park and rolled the truck. It landed upright but would not run. When I got to the truck I heard gears that werent engaged. Hopefully they are not stripped.Did something come loose and I just need to reset gear mesh?sorry for the noob question, I havent had time to investigate the problem

Take off the transmission cover (3 screws) and look at the pinion/spur gear, if the motor moved or the pinion gear set screw loosened it could that simple, however, the plastic spur gear could be stripped (missing teeth).
Also look at the slipper clutch (the blue disc on the spur gear) and the pressure spring and nut.
IIRC, the brushless Ruckus comes with the metal transmission gears but if everything under the cover looks good it could be in the transmission.
