Nitrorcx Guide: Fine Tuning your Nitro RC Car

[@Gentleman_Jester]

I've watched allot of tuning videos for nitro. This is the first one I've seen that explains everything in a way that is easily understandable for a newbie. Thank you very much for making this video. I'm confident now that I can get my RS4 Evo up and running finally.

[@jesseortega8598]

Exactly he was right on point. I just finished Building my Kyosho Nitro Inferno MP 10 TKI3! It's got a Alpha Falcon Engine! This is perfect for.

[@BlueMoto53]

This is a good one because it shows you the car actually running. I tried watching adam drake, but it wasn’t anything like this

[@Ccodebits]

Thank you! I got a nitro and was freaking out when people were talking about tunning, lean and rich...I wanted to take it back and get an electric. NowI'm completely happy with my RC, which was a Christmas present, from my wife. XD

[@namehere7829]

I LIKE HOW TO VIDEOS LIKE THIS ONE ...HES NOT ON HERE BRAGGING OR SHOWING OFF SOME MULTI THOUSAND DOLLAR RC CAR THAT THE AVERAGE PERSON CANT AFFORD OR TRYING TO SELL YOU PARTS FROM SOME RC COMPANY WERE THEY MAKE A PROFIT ON EVERY TIME THEY MENTION THAT COMPANIES NAME ..HE IS SHOWING US HOW WE TOO CAN FIX OR HAVE FUN WITH RC CARS..AND FOR THAT I WILL GIVE THIS VIDEO A THUMBS UP..

[@alsuth803]

Thank you. Finally someone who knows wtf they are expressing and teaching other people. No - one ever talks about the pinging/ detonation on these motors. Nitro is hard to tune, but once you hit that sweet spot...hold on!!

[@extraglutenplz3758]

and then you go back to the track the next day, different weather, need to start all over again LOL

[@leonv9744]

I appreciate all the great detail and showing everyone hands on exactly what to do as well as when the tuning is off and what it does too rich or too lean. Great job again....I watched many tuning videos and this one is definitely the best!

[@lumleytc]

Big thank you from UK, only had the hyper 7 for about 5 years, never managed to find it to this quality until I found your videos, lifetime followed from today, huge thanks Lum, uk

[@brucewestern6325]

I really appreciate how in the detail and the examples that you give, most videos that say the basics don't give you a clue of information when you just need the actual basics. This is step by step the true basics and I do appreciate your time that you took on it

[@detroitrcwurks998]

I have a bad memory but when i need or think i need a refresher on tuning this video is where i go. This i think is 1 of the best and straight to the point tuning videos.

[@cyberpopstuff]

This is the best tuning video I have ever seen. That young man is a great teacher. Thanks.

[@Th3KarmaUploads]

After 3 years I took out my Nitro RC buggy again. I was kinda struggling with it again, untill I saw this. Awesome video dude!

[@austinl.4444]

Best tuning video I have seen. Traxxas won was complicated and confusing. I understood everything you were saying

[@brettdillaman5477]

This guy really knows what he's doing I swear this video will help you out. I left my tmaxx on the shelf for 20 years and forgot everything I learned. And this video saved me form another motor witch will be the the third motor by the way.

[@Jo.hannesW]

This is one of the best tutorials for nitro beginners... and those who may thought they were already experts. Very good, thank you!

[@jameswatson-thomas7185]

I have had my mta4 for about 8 years. Was very temperamental. After watching this video I played around with it and I totally get it now. I never knew it was that quick, I’ve never had it up on two wheels until today!

[@GabrielA-ib2eb]

You're so awesome. Got my delivery from nitrorcx last week so I'll be playing around with our .18 this weekend. Your videos are so informative and detailed. I absolutely love them. Thank you for making this hobby fun for my son and I.

[@Hanibul_Lecktor]

Idle lay down, low side needle engine Temps were left out. High side tuning was spot on. Not being a critic, literally one of the best in depth videos on KZbin and I'm throwing the pros how to videos in the mix. Imho your idle was too high, premature clutch wear etc...You did ask for comments :p

[@bencernyar6906]

Michael Drum only person with sence of a tune this guys tune is trash

[@travismorse2104]

@@bencernyar6906 well by all means mr bad ass tune guy let's see your video on a correct tune? Oh that's right you dont have one! The only thing thats trash here is your dumb ass!🤣🤣🖕

[@FortuN1337]

Of hundreds of different tutorials for things i watched on youtube, this one is by far the best! Very nice job my friend explaining and showing. Keep up the good work!

[@Cpt_Nathan]

I actually read the entire trx 3.3 manual and learned the importance of cleaning air filter after every hour of use (serious, it’s a big deal) dish soap then air filter oil and your good to go. I also learned that after every run if your are going to store for more than 3 hours go ahead and spray 1sec burst WD-40 straight into open carb and into glow plug hole crank engine 10sec and repeat 2x more times. (Serious, WD-40 in the manual) Starts up great after this treatment and more importantly it gets all the nitro out of the engine so it doesn’t attract water and rust bearings out and such.

[@averagejoenitro2730]

Props for putting this video out there. You guys are doing exactly what I am trying to do with my channel....help others out with nitro RC. We all make mistakes and from my experience on camera things rarely go text book when trying to explain lol! Anyways, good job on the video! I'm not the type to criticize others videos because it's not going to change the video anyways and I know how it is to receive a lot of criticism.... Because this hobby (nitro rc) brings a lot of it. Thanks for sharing this!

[@charlieb7854]

Average Joe Nitro i have watched your videos and they are great. i have learned alot from them. Thank you!

[@RepublicanJonCardiasmenos]

Hey Buddy, great tutorial on the nitro engine. I just bought a Kyosho Inferno GT2 Race Spec Nitro Car in the red finish and I plan to take it out for the first time on 6-23-19 this Sunday!!! I cant wait!!! I love the sound of the nitro engine. Electric is faster, but you gotta love the sound of nitro. I have watched your video a couple of times and it has given me great confidence. Thanks man, Jon Cardiasmenos. Concord, Ca.

[@randomized3060]

some you tubers just make it to complicated this is easy and understandable

[@geoffhickman6215]

This is the best demonstration on tuning ive ever seen on youtube

[@jakecarnez233]

Nitro rc for life, just can't do the electric. Keep these going, videos like this make me so happy.

[@bobbymac4751]

Dude, Your vid let me have the fastest tune ever. I am a novice, 2 months here in fl. Thank you for your Video. Lots of help. Here in Fla. lots of humidity. That becomes tricky. Thanks again.

[@StoneFPV-]

Great video! Thank you for making a tuning video that actually makes sense and covers basically every nitro tuning problem I’ve had.

[@jameschandler1655]

[@TheBUBBELINA]

I subscribed after watching this video. This was the best tutorial out there considering you covered pretty much everything there was to keep in mind, and at the same time making it easy to follow along. Thanks!

[@reyes-rc9115]

great tutorial in 2021 too...easy to follow and the examples of the extremes on both sides helped a ton. Thanks!

[@RcOffroad9513]

This tune was way off! But it does give you a good idea of what you want to do. The buggy was not tuned good, too lean on low end, but he kept trying to fix it with the hsn?

For someone who just purchased a nitro car. This was so clear and understandable. Thanks again.👍🏼👍🏼🚗🚗

I think is the best tuning video on youtube. You almost convince me tobuy a nitro version of my electric buggy.

[@MrJecs1337]

Excellent tutorial! I use this video as a reference all the time when I tune my nitro engines.

[@xibidit]

when your leaning the lsn and your idle rises, with in mind you have a huge 1mm gap, you should lower your gap. i usually use half of what you use and your idle is way high. very good video man, really good for beginners if they just lower the gap a smidge :p

[@winstonwalker7432]

Best nitro video out there for beginners and some novice drivers. Great job!

[@MrMarkas3]

Best tuning video I've come across

[@viralworx7318]

Solid video!!!! Its awesome how you show both sides of the spectrum from rich to lean and how to fix it. You actually teach people vs just telling people. Well Done

Still the best tuning video! I just broke in my first nitro. Now I understand how to tune. Thank you so much! There is Sooooo many crappy video's out there!

fantastic! bout to get my ken block on! I just started it for the first time, I have lots of fuel coming out the exhaust and burned thru a tank in just a few minutes...I think I had the idle screw too wide open, im saving your video to my tuning playlist and im going to tune tommarrow..its 6 degrees in Illinois

[@Cpt_Nathan]

Good video, I am a new nitro user. Just finished rebuilding brothers Trx 3.3 (bearing rusted from improper storage and broke apart and got eaten by motor) and broke it in. Thanks for explaining that if pinging occurs coming off of top speed richen HS needle, and also if pinging at idle richen LS needle.

[@tubeyuber803]

I watched a bunch of tuning videos and this was by far the best. Great job!!

[@bloodstorm1231]

Been 10 years since iv played with my nitro. Im getting back in the hobby. As far as tuning goes, all i remember is a properly tuned engine will have some smoke coming out of it while on the throttle and not so much while idle.

THIS WOULD BE FUN FOR AUTO MECHANICS CLASS AT SCHOOL'S ACROSS AMERICA

[@6389033]

Best tune video i seen, helped me alot.

[@observinghumanity3034]

Nitro is much more involved and takes patience and attention. It’s also much more exciting then electrics IMO. Electrics have come a long way from back in the 80’s and can rip, but for real motor heads there is nothing like gas or nitro. This video is a great resource for newbies getting into nitros, and once they get it I guarantee they will sell or ignore most or all of their electrics. It’s kind of sad that electrics have kind of pushed out fuel powered cars and trucks, and actual kit building, but today’s generation is much more about immediate gratification, and RTR. At least RC is still alive and kicking.

[@davidstenhouse2038]

Awesome video bro, I've picked up a few things I need to listen out for. Keep up the great vids

[@ciarancdc]

It's the low speed you need to richen to get rid of the pinging because as you say yourself it controls the amount of fuel from low to mid throttle, when you let off the throttle after getting up to speed it's the low speed that controls how much of the overall fuel from the high speed gets into the engine. If the low speed is too lean you can keep richen in the high speed but it will still starve of fuel when you let off the throttle

[@85WILLBILL]

best tuning vid!! hands down!!
