hI i hope someone can help me with what may or may not be a problem.I received an accucraft viking and when it arrived the front drive was not connected so it would not drive at all.When I inspected it I noticed that the hard rubber drive tube was not connected to the front drive block,I managed to push this back on and now it drives ok.The only problem now is that it slows down a great deal on lgb r1 curves,especially with a few wagons attached.It will run around them ok but it means i have to up the power on each curve and then lower it on the straights so it doesnt run away.Basically ,should I have done anything else to the drive tube such as glue it ? or is this a normal running characteristic of the viking? not too much of a problem ,it just means i have to drive it rather than just sit back and let it run.
many thanks :)
