Cougar SV idler

[madonrc]

I know this issue has been raised before with the cat2. I have read the threads. I have just purchased a cougar SV pro and when i tell people that i have brought one they just laugh and say "hope you have a Big wallet for spares and the drive system as they just burn out.

Now that people have had them for a while has the initial problem been erased by placing grease on the gears or or schumacher now providing better idler gears.

The reason i ask is i dont want to run it if its going to cost £30 / £40 each time i do, or when you do run it its in the back of your mind good will it break. I know that schumacher do a good job with there cars as i run there touring cars, i just wanted to know if this was a teething problem with a new car which has now been sorted.

Thanks for your advise in advance
