So again, nitro sucks?

[@KevinTalbotTV]

user error. didn't run it in and and over revved and overheated it. these engines are really good actually

[@user-qq2mo1ek2r]

Nitro works just fine. If you have mechanical sympathy they can be long lived. Just like in the real world, there is a place for ICE and EV.

[@Stupidthingsrc]

That’s the scx24 v2 radio lol

[@leeiverson145]

not atall, It is being overrevved no cooling, Had nitro engines for years set up right and treated as any engine should be no issues.

The lack of a break-in process caused that engine to seize up and get destroyed. Despite that sad ending, it was a fun video to watch!

More so the fact the engine had little cooling with no vents cut in the body

[@passwords87]

Hey Kev, i just noticed that at 6:34 when you were rebuilding the engine, you swapped the conrod You were supposed to put the conrod with the small canal facing internally in the engine. That way the conrod has no lubrication, therefore youu blew it up

[@davelowets]

The "small canal" doesn't have anything to do with it, but which way the OIL HOLE faces DOES.

[@passwords87]

@@davelowets that's the same thing, canal means oil hole, which redirects to the conrod, lubricating the shaft

Kev easy trick for body posts is to dab a bit of paint or tip-x on the tops of posts. Line up body gently drop on to posts then it will leave a mark on inside of body where to drill holes.

[@disnoxis]

@@truthandfreedom8145 oil from bike chains drop on park its a slip Hazard skaters put wax on shit another slip hazard just dont use skate parks then dumb f**k

[@OliveiraX]

Great tip!

[@black99rt]

The hpi nitro rs4 racer I use for drifting has a piece of fuel tubing zip tied on the controller grip behind the trigger. It normally allows about 1/2 throttle. If I need /want more revs temporarily, I smash the trigger and it goes to about 3/4. You can play with the EPA to suit. It has ran like this for years and it keeps the revs in check when just tooling around. I've even let young children use it like this and it's fine.

[@SlowerIsFaster139]

Thats a really good idea. I thought the engine might of over heated from revving out without the car moving all that fast. Air cooling is only as good as how fast you are going. Revv limiting though? That is cool

[@BobBasshead]

Great idea! Glad that you brought it up! I would never have thought of it.

[@----.__]

Not the same, but similar. I underclock my PC, I'm running a 12900k/3090 which when left unrestricted cheeeeeews through the power and gets super hot. I do a 10% underclock and it really makes no difference in the games but uses about 2/3 of the power and generates about 1/2 the heat. If I ever play a game that bottlenecks the cpu or gpu I can just go back to 100%, but in the mean time I'm saving energy and not turning my room in to a furnace. Long story short. With RC cars, computers, anything really, if you buy high quality items you don't need to run them at 100% to have a good experience. Gains in most applications (HP, GHz, et al) is not a linear response, the last 10% is usually 50% of the heat/power/stress placed on the system. Your manual limiter for your RC car is a genius idea and has the benefit of having a pseudo override by "smashing the trigger" back. Gonna give that a try myself. Thanks mate. Peace from Oz.

[@johncataldo3174]

I love nitros. The noise they make. I converted the pull start into a drill start using a 12mm socket and the original casing, worked a treat.

[@fugginrambo]

This makes me appreciate electric RC so much

[@TheGhostman132]

How? Never seized a nitro motor in my hobby years (20 years), but just burnt esc on my arrma under 10 battery cycles... And they aren't cheap. actually, you could get a whole engine on that kind on money... Of course you can destroy anything at inapropiate use as this, but I would but my money on nitros if runtime between failures would be measured. And lets not go in to the batteries. There is so much junk on market that it is unbeliavable.

[@fugginrambo]

@@TheGhostman132 Also when little kids want to use my truck I can either put it in beginner mode or pop a Nickel battery in and it's to slow to break anything

[@nitroluver4l591]

Although this is a good reminder to always break in your engines, this was an extremely resilient engine

[@zays_lif3909]

KEV the filming in this video is absolutely superb!!!

[@PrayItForwardAGAPE]

Thank you Kevin for all your thoughtful content I enjoy it so much! My friend (@Richard French RC's and More) recently got me back into RC cars by buying me a RedCat EPX Drift RTR, to honor my Dad who passed away at the end of 2019 because we both had a massive love for rally and RC when I was a kid . I bought a Bugeye WRX wagon and this summer Im going to finish my widebody conversion(STI/WRX sedan rear doors and fenders). Im going to be picking up a Subaru body for the RedCat when I can afford to get one, I love this platform so much the sheer adjust-ability is insane. I look forward to more drifts in it but also rallying it a bit to. Thank you for reminding me of my Dad, I truly appreciate it!!!

[@echotech818]

Use the 14v cooling fan we use on our brushless motors. Mount it to the body right next to the engines cooling head with a separate mini 4s lipo. I have done this with great success. The consistent temp keeps the tune running well, so you aren’t struggling with adjusting for fuel air ratio as temp exceeds the allowed tolerance.

[@scott1171]

love the video, with the push rod they go in a specific way round, they have a small hole on the bottom end and that faces the clutch on the engine so it can stay lubracated.

[@snakeNP215]

The engines needed to be broken in before full sending them also u needed a temp gun to properly tune them little engines

Tuning without the body, then putting the body on often fucks up the tune/temp anyway.

One tip I always use for Nitro Longevity. If you hear fuel sizzling when you shut her down it may be a tad lean. If you ever say it's running better than it ever has then it is two seconds from a melt down.

[@brentonk461]

It's critical to run them in a certain way. I could teach you a thing or two about resolving overheating problems. there are a few modifications and hot ups not standard you can do to make them go hard. Haven't played with a nitro RC engine for awhile. 2speed kysho V1-S was heavy but awesome handling, changed it to a factory ported force . 12 Engine home made high stall lock clutch.. and a few other mods, the venom racing tyres weren't cheap replacing them Every 2nd time out. it Would run with the best 1/8 scale engine, car you could buy at the time.

[@Luke-en2tk]

The FORCE .18 engines tend to run quite hot so you have to be quite careful with them. I loved the .12 Hobao engine it used to be pretty epic and the HPI T-15's were nearly indestructable

[@brunomumenthaler6156]

Hey kev next time when rebuilding or opening an engine oil the piston with some 2stroke oil so it will start easyer on the first start

[@1_funkemonke757]

When trying to fit the body post, use a sharpie on the top of the post and press the body down on them. You'll then have a prefect dot where you need to drill. HOPE THIS HELPS

[@youpicweplaygaming5901]

The chunk missing on the bottom of the piston was the first bits of metal you discovered from removing the head. Did you do the proper break-in procedure? Didn't show in the vid so wasn't sure. If not that and the drift tires/over revving like you said is definitely what caused it to seize. Great vid keep em coming

[@lawrencewinter]

Epic clip. Love that nitro ripper. Nice to see what happens if you abuse these engines.

[@chrismyers7121]

To line up the mounts to the body dab a bit of paint pen on top of the mount posts and line up your rear posts and when you lay the front down it will put a dab of paint on the inside of the body where the holes should be. You can then quickly punch your holes and wipe away the still wet paint and you're good to go.

[@OliveiraX]

All and all, that Force brand nitro engine is built like a tank! It handles extended running at full rpm with no break-in WITH 25% nitro fuel from the start. When the piston skirt shatters, you just remove all the debris from the inside and let it rip! When the conrod bushing goes, you just replace the conrod (usually you have to replace the piston and liner with it, and possibly the bearings, because of the damage the metal debris from the conrod will make to these) And let it rip again! You only managed to kill it by leaning it while at full throtlte with the wheels up. That's a solid engine in my book!
