Do you have any pictures and what price are we looking at. Thanks

Basically I'm looking for a RTR (engine set up etc) but I'm able to tinker around with the less mechanical side of things. Customise the look and change ride heights and exhausts wheels etc before moving on to the more mechanical side of the works of the engine/carb etc I'm in need of something to pass the time that I'm going to enjoy. My situation is. I'm off work due to illness and it's not a short term one unfortunately so my budget is low end and I'm simply bored out my brain. So that's why I'm looking for a clear out because it's unwanted and just want rid.

I'm looking to buy a cheap RTR set up (nitro) 1/10 - 1/8 scale If you have any extra bits and bobs so I can do some tinkering etc It's mainly to keep me busy and give me something to do without a lot of effort Looking for a cheap clear out basically. PM with details, pictures, Video links Delivery would be best please (Nottingham) Thank you in advance

Thanks. It seems everything was set up completely wrong (by the previous owner) so that's why I was baffeled, and had to ask the simplest questions. I've set the brakes up, the trim correctly, the idle is 1mm now and HS and LS needles are set up to factory default. Can't wait to put the new glow plug in and the pull start on and get bashing. Cheers for the advice and information, you have been a great help!

Thank you very much. I'm waiting on pull start. So when it arrives I'll bang it on and see what happens. I'll let you now in due course. Just a quick one this time lol. The first picture with the arrow. Looking into the carb. Is that the needle I can see or is it the top of the needle housing if you like. Again, thank you!

Thanks so much for the reply! I'm unable to start the car as I broke the pull start. Being an excited noob I just wanted to get straight into it and I got frustrated because I could get it started and just kept trying ... Turning everything trying different twists and turns of the LSN and HSP (but forgetting the idle screw) ... So I sat down today. Looked at it and I started with the idle. That was completely not set up properly. (from previous owner) So I sorted the 1-2mm gap (turning the idle screw) along with the trim on the controller so it works out half way. So I have option to open and close the gap both ways. Now the brass needle. (LSN) I've set this up to be just out of where it enters the HSP part if you see what I mean? So now I have a the idle speed set up to 1mm gap with the brass needle just out. Would this be a good start? My thinking was to obviously let fuel in? Or would the brass needle (by vision) need to be in or out more? I'm a mechanical retard, seriously! And on the basis of the above i did turn 6.5 turns out (1 turn being 180) to get a starting point on the HSN because by vision you can't see the fuel flow speed. Right. Here's another question regarding the idle gap. obviously when you press the throttle it opens along with the brass needle. But when I press the throttle up (to reverse on some cars) it completely closes it. So how can you reverse if the engine will die? I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure my car should reverse right? It's a 4WD .... Come to think of it. I don't think the car can brake ... Could this be a broken servo? I feel like my mum on a computer, clueless .... I really shouldn't get frustrated with her anymore!

I apoligise in advance! Fancy a laugh? Well here goes. Yes I am a "noob" and I would really appreciate some guidance minus the trolling. I recently purchased a used Ansmann Deuce Nitro .21 What I need to know is (for the moment) is the factory settings for the carb or a good starting point (which is the LSN isn't it) Firstly let me try and explain. Ive read somewhere that the needle should be out 1-2mm ... Am I correct in thinking (when everything is turned on, apart from the engine) by taking the air filter off and looking into the carb itself, i see a gold needle type thing that is connected to the throttle lever through a silver housing if you like, where it holds the needle in place but you can adjust it via the side of the carb. Which is the LSN right? So the needle needs to be out from where the fuel comes in by 1-2mm? This would give me a half decent start on the LSN as a starting point? (I know about turning it 1/8 max to tune, well I think I'm right haha) Now for the HSN. I've also read some where start with it flush and start with it 6.5 turns in from flush level. Which would be a good starting point? When you tune they say only turn a certain amount. I'm assuming you stop the engine. Turn. Then start it back up again? Or can you do it while the engine is running but obviously give it a couple of seconds to adjust to the adjustments you just made (wow all them justs, just hurt my head and yours probably lol) Glow plug. I'm using medium to hot at the minute. Should I keep this for the moment to get used to it all then get colder as and when I want to step up the performance? I'm using 20% fuel if that helps. Any tips or tricks to getting it started properly and tuning it would be highly appreciated. Very sorry about the length but I just want to try and make myself as clear as possible.
