    Have you checked if the flywheel is tight? the engine aint gonna turn over if the flywheel is not tight enough or come loose.

    Good point spudski - I had this with one of my Nitros and couldn't figure out why it was a pig to start/keep running....then I found it.....! :)

    The guy i brought it from of ebay says this:

    "listen m8, i asked you what crystals etc you were using for a reason..the reason is,,these servos are for a digital controller,i/e spektrum like 2.4ghz not analogue with crystals, if you put these on the throotle or steering etc and you walk away with the controller the car will take of its self.. its says on the auction ..DIGITAL HIGH TORQUE HIGH SPEED SERVO thats what your problem is..happened to me,,car started twitching itself the further i walked away from it then it took off, that why i invested in a spektrum dx3 hope this helps"

    Any of that true?

    Post up the eBay username for us all to check out......!!! ??? ;)

    Everytime I come to this website my computer goes on the fritz. It acts up and the screen blinks and studders. Anyone else have this problem? It is very annoying and no where else does this. And it is not just the page in which modelsport is open. It affects the whole screen. Once I close modelsports website, either the forums or the homepage it all goes away.

    Thanks

    Sounds like a plug in is not working correctly??? Have you tried using Firefox? works great for me, used it since it was released (BTW I hate I.E) ;)

    Acoms Techniplus range problem

    Recharagable's tend to work at 1.2v per cell.. they will run at 1.5 but only for a short time - about 20 minutes or so at a push, then they run at a constant 1.2v until they suddenly go flat without much warning.

    1.5V....??? I don't think so........you must have some dodgy chinese ones......LOL

    1.2V from a rechargable, with a long voltage range until just about dead, then goes V quickly.....!

    Don't mess when rc's are about, lol

    I would like to add that the girl was on a BMX track with a short sleeved top on as her only protection, no helmet/gloves/goggles etc......I know she wasn't racing, but just a good job it wasn't another bike.....!!!!

    It was probably tha RC drivers big sister who had dissed him earlier and he wanted revenge - looking at the video titling/editing it was done by a kid.....LOL

    What 'Aerial' wire for receiver..?

    Is there any specific problem with getting a longer wire?

    I can imagine a shorter wire would reduce the signal, but can't see a problem with a longer one.

    But then again that may be my in-experience :)

    Yeah, it's all related to the wavelength of the frequency being used......can't remember the formula now.......think it is a quarter wavelength antenna on 27Mhz? In short, it has to be a certain length for correct/best operation ;)

    What 'Aerial' wire for receiver..?

    Hi all,

    The aerial wire coming from my receiver has been damaged - So I want to solder on some new wire etc..

    Can I use any wire? or is this aerial wire special?

    Thanks

    Just conductive, run of the mill wire will do ya fine, try and keep same length as original though.

    There is a list on this forum somewhere for lengths to use for each make of RX, do a search and u will find it ;)

    just buy an ESC and have fully variable speed instead of just 3 fixed speeds....much better to control.....!!!

    It will run fine if cracked, just make sure nothing is shorting (metal to metal) - but any ceramic resistor should be OK (as long as it is from an RC car)....I think I have an old one somewhere but who knows where it might be right now - will have a look for it if u stuck for one???
