Hi there. Greetings from Sydney Australia. Ive nearly finished building mine, it’s my first kit also! My diffs feel tight, I used many combinations of shims and did the best I could. When I spin the dogbones the drive train moves though not very freely. Could you please me if this was your experience? Thank you.

can you show how to tuned rc nitro on idle , highspeed and low speed's please.
@B2Humla3 ай бұрын
For idle, set the idle gap at what the engine manual says. OS often use 0.5mm, but could also be some bigger like 0.75mm. Start with needels at default and the OS engine (OS R21) user manual explains the basic tuning steps. I am not a very experienced nitro user so search KZbin. It is much about sound, smoke and heat.

Hei Hvor mye olje er det k fuel’n du bruker ? Trur ikke du trenger mer en 10-11% , 12 % er ihvertfall nok til at motoren skal ha nok smøring ☺️temp vil gå ned og hastigheten opp ved å redusere oil content 👍. Men skaff deg en god eksos pipe og header , det er helt sykt stor forskjell. Takk for alle videoene du legger ut , fortsett med det 🙂👍
@B2Humla4 ай бұрын
Usikker, det er OptiFuel RTR 20, mulig den har 15% olje. Ja sikkert mye som kunne vært justert for max hastighet. Kommer nok flere videoer men noe begrenset fritid nå som jeg har en baby å passe på. Men har både el. og nitro biler som skal kjøres med. Vært mye regn her i Bergen også denne sommeren. Takker for tips og kommentar 👍🏎

was wondering what tradio and battery pack are you using?
@B2Humla5 ай бұрын
It is two batteries, "Sunpadow Platin Stock Racing 8000mAh 7.4V 2S 130/65C LiPo". They are connectied in series so we have 4S volt. I am not doing any serious racing (yet), so if you are into racing (I believe they do 7 minutes races) ask the people that are doing that. I have seen some people using 9000mah batteries. Radio? I am using a Spektrum DX5, but any radio and receiver for rc racing will do ok.

I have run one of these for a few years now. Still an impressive car. In my groupe of friends we all have front wheel drive cars, and the Schumacher is tops. Equipped with a 17.5 motor it out guns similar cars equipped with 13.5 motors. We dont run timing or ESC tuning either. I did purchase the optional shocks for it as the kit shocks I found to be kind of ridiculous.
@B2Humla6 ай бұрын
Yes stock shocks was almost funny to build. I believe Schumacher RC has dropped the Mission FT now. Bad, because the low kit price was attractive and got a lot of people into the hobby as their first rc racing car.
@TinyTiresRC6 ай бұрын
@@B2Humla Definitely a little bothered by the loss of the FT as a Kit. Fortunately parts are still available, not that it breaks all that often. It's a sturdy platform when used appropriately. Plus I purchased a myriad of spares when I bought the kit. I'm pleasantly surprised how durable it has proven to be.

Nice location. You should delete the chicane right in front of you. It's dangerous for the cars. If you are less than smooth with the steering, you'll upset the car, loose the rear, and crash hard against the kerb. Plus, you need a proper home straight. Especially for the 1/8 - it does not like sudden changes of direction and it likes free flowing circuits. With that much space you can go full throttle with it and practice full throttle turns too, without any fear of crashing it.
@B2Humla8 ай бұрын
Thanks. Will test new layout next time. This location is in use so we cant make a permanent rc track there.
@OliveiraX8 ай бұрын
@@B2Humla Of course. I understood. I meant making a circuit using chalk and cones, like you did. I was just advising how to improve the circuit for the 1/8 car. It needs speed (and the aerodynamic downforce that comes from it) to work well. At low speeds, it is very hard to control. It has very little grip. Once it gets up to speed it turns and brakes much better.

What is the part number for the asphalt tires? I see several options from Schumacher, but they don't explain which is for asphalt. Thank you for posting.
@B2Humla Жыл бұрын
Some stiffer (higher shore grade) rubber tires is used outdoor on asphalt. So I guess the part number can be the same, just the shore grade is different. Indoor on carpet shore 28 is common, with tire additive. Outdoor stiffer rubber so about shore 32-34. Depends on temperature and some heat up the rubber before the race. Additive may be used if the race rules permit it. This video has some tire part numbers, see description kzbin.info/www/bejne/baK2oJSFZ8qtmM0

Would be a good idea to take the posts off of the motor. And in a crash or just from use they put a torque onto the PCB mount. And eventually cause it to fail. Best to solder right onto the PCB pads of the motor. But love the video and very nicely built !
@B2Humla Жыл бұрын
Agree. I've also seen the contacts almost come off while driving. So agree that the safest thing is to solder straight on.
