I have a lighning saix that wouldn't walk, just clicks. After experiencing this with multiple old zoids, I narrowed down the problem to what I think is the spring that keeps the gears from binding. I'm guessing after 20+ years, they don't have the compression any longer to support the resistance of the weight of the zoid in locomotion. I figured if I super glued the 2 pieces the spring squeezes together, I could get her walking again. Well I was right, but now she walks... backwards? What could have gone wrong?
I did have to remove the parts that the legs peg on to in order to open the body and get at the gears. I did be sure to ensure that both sides offset pegs were opposite (one up one down) both left and right and front and rear. I didn't modify the wiring and the batteries are not in backwards. Any ideas?
