I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one that has a little trouble with the brush barrels on these. These were much easier to do when I was a kid. I usually use a metal cookie sheet when taking apart and reassembling chassis. It helps to contain flying parts but doesn't catch them all. Great video. Thanks for doing these videos.

Same here I use a small cookie sheet with a micro fiber or hand towel to catch any parts that slip out of my ig sausage fingers🤣🏁

Glad I'm not the only one who has trouble with motor brush springs. Lost three trying to reassemble xtraction chase

Agreed. I'm glad I had the foresight to buy several G-Plus springs from a guy who sold new old stock parts before I started to restore my first G-Plus chassis. Had a few that got away from me too. lol

I keep a good supply of the springs just in case of one of the damn springs flying off into oblivion.

Stay away from the Mega G chassis, the brush springs in those are microscopic in comparison. Not my favourite chassis, not by a long shot. The xtraction only gave me grief while trying to put the armature back in without disturbing the brushes, but I have the hang of it now.

It looks like you were cleaning the com with a wire brush. We used to use a fiberglass pencil to clean the com while under power. Have you tried that method? Love the G Plus. Nice video, thanks.

I think the G-plus was one of the hardest to work on. Brushes were a big problem.
