Would just like to say thanks for your help the car seems to be running very well now. That was up to the point where my wife hit the curb and bent the shock absorber shaft

Ok that explains why I couldn't reverse lol. I will just have another mess tomorrow keep doing it in bits as it's annoying me. Thanks again for your help

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I have it now so it starts quite easy but still idles to fast and the car drives off. I have my transmitter set to 0 and the carb opening at around 1mm. So not sure why it still drives off lol I have run a full tank of fuel thru it and a steady run around the garden and now I have left it. The one thing I can't get it to do is reverse. Do they reverse or just brake?

I don't have a you tube account. My transmitter is set to 0 so shouldn't be doing anything but yes the wheels still go around. Am I right in thinking the gap in the carb is altered by the idle screw? It seems to be running, quite badly, but then it will rev up and stall. Think it may be aswel to go to a model shop and ask them set it up. Don't know if they will tho

I have it running now u it is idling quite quick and smoking quite a bit. I have took a short video but it won't let me upload as it's to big

Cheers will give that a go

That's what we have been doing but there is no fuel flowing at all

Good morning my son was bought a ftx carnage nt for Christmas but we can't start it. It was brand new and we followed a video on you tube on how to start and break in the engine but ours dosnt do anything what his did in the video lol. For starters we can't even get the fuel to leave the tank? We covered the exhaust and pulled the starter like he said but nothing. Any ideas?

Legend. Thank you so much for taking the time. Will let him have a look in the morning.

How about this http://www.modelsport.co.uk/tamco-rc-raid-4wd-1-10-brushless-buggy/rc-car-products/387179

I have no idea what the difference is lol, something that goes quite fast on grass

Any recommendations

He has two at the min a hpi mini recon and a ripmax huskey but they are a bit small for playing with on the field. I know absolutely nothing about them, they just don't interest me so maybe nitro is a no go area.

Hi. It's that time of the year again that my son wants a nitro car for Christmas. He has had electric since last Christmas but now wants nitro. What would you recommend for a 10 yr old for around 150/170 ish?
