[@observinghumanity3034]

When I built my first nitro back in the 90’s and ran it for the first time I was totally hooked. Electrics became toy grade to me, no matter what kind of speeds they have been able to achieve nowadays. I completely agree that if you are a person who lacks patience and or is unwilling to spend time tuning and tweaking your RC car, then stick with electrics.

Ordered my first nitro in 2020 after owning 3-4 brushless RCs and I will never forget the feeling of the first start. The hobby finally felt how I always imagined it would feel as a kid. Sadly I dont have many places to run nitro and my basher group is fully electric.

I’ve found with my Ftx force .18 that the engine doesn’t need much priming and if the engine does flood (same with any nitro) just loosen off the glow plug and pull the pull start a few times the engine should feel loose on the start and tighten the glow plug before you start the engine again

Yes although now radios are typically 2.4ghz they're less useful. Failsafe only work when they have power, so if you lose range/have interference (highly unlikely with a 2.4ghz). Any runaway I've had has been because of a total loss of power

You need to close your idle speed screw slightly. At the moment the carb is closing too much on breaking thus cutting the engine out.

[@TheRCBiker]

Hi there, stopping the engine by the flywheel has never been my preferred method, blocking exhaust or pinching the fuel line is better as it doesn't put pressure on the crankshaft. In regards the tuning if it's running then just start driving it about and adjust the settings accordingly :)

A couple of things when itcomes to tuning one need temp gun or someform of temp reading and the low speed run the engine tune high speed first try to keep your engine no more than 230f okay once you get that temp pinch your gas line count 1 one thousand 2 one thousand 3 one thousand once your engine dies withen this time frame your low speed is set!,if your idle is super high from leaning make sure yourlower ig

[@TheRCBiker]

I disagree with temp guns They give false readings. Different engines run at different optimum temperatures, should tune the engine for performance rather than temperature. People take temperatures too literally and they end up adjusting engines that don't need to be adjusted

Hey man I saw to shoot you a message if you’ve got a problem. My f4.6 v2 will idle but runs bad, if I adjust the tune it’ll run but but out with wide open throttle and won’t idle. I really have no clue what I’m doing wrong with it

Hi Travis. A lot of the time people think their engines are running too hot when actually they're fine. Drop a few drops of water onto the engine heatsink when it's up to temperature. If it sizzles away (like putting hot water into a frying pan!) then it IS too hot. If it just sits there, heats up and goes, then it's fine.

[@TheRCBiker]

Hi there, it's not unusual to have the oil spitting from the exhaust, what you're seeing is unburnt oil and if you're using a particularly oily fuel (model technics for example) then they can spit oil on even a lean setting. If you've messed up the settings the best thing to do would be return them to factory defaults and then you can work from there.

I left my batteries on my car on over night what might be the problem looking to fix it!

[@Therealworld292]

Okay so I have an Traxxas ez starter rustler with an .15 engine and idk why but when I push the button on the ez starter it makes an nosy but doesn’t start what should I do

[@TheRCBiker]

Hey there, to be honest I'm not overly familiar with the Ez Starters. I would assume that this could either be a flat battery (obvious I know!). Or, more likely, the gears inside the starting mechanism have got jammed or stripped. You'd need to take it apart and see what the issue is. One thing I would do is turn the flywheel over by hand, with glow plug removed, to make sure that the engine is freely moving (i.e. Not seized) just to eliminate the engine being seized as a cause.

Very informative mate 👍 always enjoy your content . We couldn't have better weather for getting out the RC cars at the moment .

Hi im a real beginer,messed with the high end needle,dont know how to get it back to default,please help me

[@TheRCBiker]

Hi Clive, refer to your user manual which will contain the factory tuning settings and then work from there

[@clddnc]

Hi again! My son want nitro. Do you have some suggestion for a 1/10 robust model? Resistant as can get with reasonable price to jumps and some bumps (1st i'll trim the throttle, but it is a very curious boy). He already made plans to use his 3d printer for some parts =)))))

[@tris1452]

If you look at the cheap 1/10 HSP cars on banggood you’ll find some good beginner friendly ones. They’re quite well made but, most importantly, the parts are absolutely everywhere and very cheap :)

[@clddnc]

@@tris1452 But 200$+1-2 months delivery is worst (time especially) than some 250-300EUR from EU. :( In 2 months summer is almost over. :)

[@TheRCBiker]

Hi Claudiu, How about checking out the FTX Carnage NT? :) It's a good beginners 1/10 car.

[@tris1452]

See if you can find the HSP car online locally? I know that in the UK we can buy the cars from nitrotek for maybe 20% more expensive than banggood

[@clddnc]

@@TheRCBiker Thanks'. Has the same price as Carson models as I see. I will look into it. Between FTX & Carson do you have a suggestion? I has a Stormracer CV10 chassis and I was a little bit disappointed of reliability.
