I have the same orange summit, brand new out the box had the same issue. The shift servo lever was not put on right and stripped out the plastic gears, I had a great product support from Hi-Pro RC Shop, they sent me a free 2065X metal gear servo priority mail, I adjusted the shift lever properly and never had an issue since. I'd also check your steering servos, my were screaming out the box, had to adjust the linkages but quite as a mouse now.

I just converted mine to brushless after having owned it for about 5 years. Second RC. I've had the brushless (Castle Mamba Monster 2 and a Castle 1512, 2650 kv motor combo) system since about a year after I bought the Summit. I just never had an idea what connectors I wanted to solder onto it. After a while I started to notice I have a lot of EC5 connectors so that is what made me decide on making it an EC5 RC. On top of that is rated for 120 amps or something like that which in hindsight became a no brainier. I've got a lot of connectors that I bought some time back. Even XT90S which I thought I'd have used by now but haven't used one. I've got chargers that will charge any style battery I pick, but I've been getting used to soldering the EC5s. I've also made my own charge leads with them. I do have to get a few sets of Lipos best suited for the battery trays. My 2s Smart Lipos work fine, but I use the Summit in the worst conditions imaginable and don't want to destroy the smart batteries. Other than the brushless and an aftermarket servo, I've done no mods to it. I've only ever broke one thing on it, not really broke, but stripped the rear diff gears. You'd never know it didn't come brushless from the factory as the Castle system is the identical system used for the Traxxas Power up program during the times of the old TQ transmitter with the flip up antenna.

What's actually perfect for this truck is 5s, the stock brushless system handles it well. And even stepping up with a little taller gearing helps 1st year to be more useful and then 2nd can really rip and the extra voltage of 5s helps pull that taller gearing. Never had a problem doing that 10yrs later, no joke.

4s is plenty for me. In fact probably going to run on 3s. I haven't had the truck long. Got it in a trade and it needs some work. Too much power makes it harder to control plus wear and tear is greater. I have crawlers and a couple 'bashers'. I say that because I do not bash with them lol. Bashing is too hard on equipment and too expensive on a budget. I like the Summit because I consider it to be a hybrid between a crawler and basher.
