andyknight Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) So just been out over the fields and I have come across a weird problem that I can;t quite work out how to solve. I've made a few tweaks to the idle screw and LSN (very tiny amounts) and now have a lovely idle (not so high as per previous thread from yesterday). I now have an issue when braking and what it does to the throttle. Upon full throttle acceleration I can let go of the trigger and the car will revert back to my idle that I set above, no problems. When I use the brake, letting my finger off the trigger again results in the linkage returning the throttle to slightly open. I can can press the brake multiple times in a row and the amount it leaves the throttle open by varies but it's enough to move the car at more than a walking pace by itself. Any ideas how to solve this? The linkage is standard as it came out of the box. Edited March 8, 2015 by andyknight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark35 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Might need your servo arm moving a tooth a end points resetting.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_RCModelz Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Have a look to see if the linkage is catching on your airfilter if not clean your linkage and add a little lube around the spring and part b025 on linkage near the air filter Edited March 8, 2015 by John_RCModelz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Yeah i think it's rubbing on the filter/outerwear. I don't see any way of making it clear though. Edited March 8, 2015 by andyknight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almighty15 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Sounds like it's jamming a little.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) I think this illustrates it the best (you might have to download it to play rather than stream, googledrive is playing up). https://cf6b427b2c5c0d46f0925068bbeb180b7b14e8ac.googledrive.com/host/0BydkETMLZI2-ZmpPS0phRmZTOFk/video0003-480p.mp4 Edited March 8, 2015 by andyknight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl160180 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Its sticking in b025 try a little lube on rod so it goes in b025 that should sort it if not make the hole diameter a little bigger I had this problem on my 5b and did exactly as stated above. Stripped the linkage down and drilled out the plastic part slightly bigger so the throttle linkage rod wasnt binding inside it and causing the throttle to stick on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatout! Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I had this problem on my 5b and did exactly as stated above. Stripped the linkage down and drilled out the plastic part slightly bigger so the throttle linkage rod wasnt binding inside it and causing the throttle to stick on this is exactly what I did on rc modelz advice, and it was solved drill it only slightly thou, i used a hot bit of bar the same size of the linkage bar, warm it up and repetitively slowly in and out of the black plastic part that you can manually a ply the throttle with, lube it up and you'll not get a problem again, I blow all the crap out every time im out, the lubrication is a attraction to dust lol! mine was going to full throttle after the break was aplyed, lol! It wasn't on the ground thank god Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatout! Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Also you can flip that little plastic thing facing up away from the air filter twist it a bit towards you and it also moves the bars away from one another, its shoving the throttle back slightly when its going back to neutral position on the servo, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Flatout, thanks mate. just rotated the black plastic bit (b025) upwards sso the 2 rods run above and below each other rather than side to side. looks like it has cured the problem. I will apply some lube as well. I have bike grease 2000 or bikeline dry lube to choose from, both for my mountain bike. any prefernce?
