The tyres on the 3.3 jato are crap .I found the tyres on the first 2.5 jato were ok on short grass.give them a try.

Think i will go with the picco off modelsport.Not a bad price as well.Is it more powerful than the trx 3.3?

Whats the picco conversion for the revo like?Ive had the rb 323 in my revo and it developed an air leak at the front bearing after a gallon.I just want an easy to tune engine that got plenty of grunt .ideas any one?

Last weekend i was out with the revo when i noticed the engine sounding rough .This is the third engine that ive had now and in each case the rear bearing has failed.Why are these engines so bloody expensive any way?IM going to stick to the 2.5 engine as the one in my jato is going strong after 2 gallons.Has any one else had this problem as when i told modelsport they said it was a new one on them.

Yeah that right.From what your describing its running too lean.Trust me they are a pig to start when its cold so nothing wrong there.Just re check your settings again and check exhaust it tight where it goes on to engine.it will be some thing easy im sure.

Get a 2.5 on ebay for about £60.

Also the lsn should flush .Turn the screw so iys flush with the end if you know what i mean.1.75 turns is too lean.

Just check its connected ok and nothing is blocking it.Open the lid on fuel tank and make sure the rubber seal is seated in the groove .

Ive got a 2.5 in a jato and its a cracking engine but the3.3 dont bother again.

Check the pressure line that goes from the exhaust to tank is ok.Then check the seal on the fuel tank lid is seated ok.

You will find the bits of metal are bits of the bearing.Did the engine sound a bit rattley before it broke?

Check the pressure line off the exhaust.

Trust me the engines are the worst IMO.Ive had 3 and they all failed after a gallon.The rear bearing failed in each case.I would not have one for free!!

Im looking at the FALCON FA 28 on modelsport for £159 to go in my st pro.Has any one got feedback on what its like?Good / bad?

The reason it stalls when its put on the floor is because the clutch is engaged.The spring in the clutch holds it back until you rev it.The rubbing noise will be the clutch.
