8282andy Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I'm pretty new to nitro, just bought a hypert 7 tq sport. It hadn't been ran for a couple of months, it starts up but wants to bod down at low revs. Could any one offer a few tips or even a run down on a needle settings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nareshpatel10 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 (edited) Hi im a neewbie to nitro, I wanted to know the needle factory settings on a hpi trophy 3.5 engine. In the manual it states 3.5 turns from closed for both hsn and lsn. Can someone confirm if that means 1 turn=360 degree or 180 degrees?

scoony191 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Is that the recommended settings or factory nitrocal thanks for getting back bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitrocal Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Is that the recommended settings or factory nitrocal thanks for getting back bud factory settings mate, if it is a new engine, set the needles to this setting. go through break in procedure. once the engine is broke in, do some tarmac speed runs. lean out the high speed needle by 1/8 turn (clockwise), keep doing speed runs in-between changes until you don't see any change in performance, once you have reached that, richen the high speed needle by 1/4 turn (anti-clockwise). do the same for the low speed needle, but once you have reached the optimum it can go, richen it by 1/8 turn (anti-clockwise) whilst doing this, keep an eye on the smoke and amount of oil coming out of the exhaust. you want there to be a nice light trail of smoke and a smooth acceleration. if there is no smoke, richen the high speed needle until the trail has come back hope this helps you mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
