I have the P2K SD7 and I've had some problems as well. Mine ran forward, but when I tried to run it backwards only the lights turned on and I could hear a humming from the motor. After taking the shell of the chasis, it turned out the shell was too large for the frame and it hit the motor when it tried to run backwards. Filing the shell down proved to be the solution and now it runs great.
