Hey, have you tryed here: http://www.apprenticeships.org.uk/ Its were I found mine (engineering ) and im starting in the next few months Very hard to get into, but after 2 intiviews (Totaling 4 hours ) I was lucky enough to get it!! Apply to any thing and everything!! Only thing is you have left it a bit late as most people start intiviews around january so might be worth doing another year at collage and applying again next year Cheers, Dan

Im just a bit causious when putting the back plate on incase i do the bolts up to tight and they pull through the plastic Im a bit heavy handed Thanks again, Dan

Thanks for all the tips. Going to get parts for it tomorrow, and will seal the back plate and carb. The back plate on the xt2 is plastic which tbh I dont think is great! Im sure what you told me to do with the LSN will solve my problem because I have not touched the LSN since I bought it

Sunday bump.... Not going to end the auction but just incase anyone wants to bid

Yes, im also running on modeltechnics 16% fuel. What % of byrons would you recommend? I have read through the tuning guides and have the 1mm gap in the carb but the tick over is still up and down all the time, and the car is hard to start unless you are using the throtal I didnt get the chance to get the parts yesturday so will hopefully get them tomorrow with new fuel and glow plug! Thanks, Dan

Im hopefuly going to get a new OWB and glow plug for my car in a bit and wanted a bit more help The car is never that easy to start and becomes a bit harder to start when it gets hot. There is plent of smoke so im sure its not getting to hot unless its the glow plug im using? I got the plug they recomended in the hobby shop which was a medium I think ?? Also once the engine has been started and then needs to be restarted you have to use a lot of throtal to get it running again??? Im 99% sure my problems are with my needle settings but I just what to know what one do I need to adjust? I think my HSN is probaly OK, but I try to aviod the LSN and leave it at factory settings as im not 100% about tuning it So do these symptons ring a bell to anyone? What does the problem sound like to you... Also one last thing.... the idle screw tends to be screwed in most of the way to keep it ticking over, and the tick over tends to keep changing (Reving higher and lower) Thanks, Dan

Sounds like a nice car... will be interesting to see how strong it is when bashing Got any photos of it, as I like looking at shiney things

I just went on the the red cat website were they are selling them for $300 http://www.redcatracing.com/RC-Cars/1-8-Scale-Nitro-Ultralite-Series But hey... I cant see much of a risk paying through paypal as like you say, the worst that will happen is you get your money back

BUMP...

BUMP...

If the engine is reving higher would it be much less reliable? I voted the picco but only becaust I have read a lot of good reviews about them and kind of want one my self But its a big price tag for a little engine

Well if I buy the new engine it can always be used in the next model I get ( A revo hopefully ) Im starting an apprentiship in a few months and I will be getting quite a bit of money each week, and nothing to spend it on apart from RC :tease: :topbanana: :insane:

My local hobby stores stocks all the spacres or can order them in. Only problem is they can be a bit expensive some times but its better than waiting a few weeks

I dont even know what the bear is, but he sure is all over the forum

Lol, i have already does that about 3 times The pull start works fine once its cleaned, but as soon as you start it up and fuel gets in the engine it starts to slip again
