Hi Lot of people say that Firestorm is nitro entry level rc truck, you have to think what you going to use for, don't forget if you planing to do high jumps get better Buggy like Hyper 7, Firestorm has not been build for this, i'm not saying it will not do but be prep for things will go wrong.

HIi guys I have firestorm 10T and u should use 25% nitro will run perfect after adjustment, the problem with model shops is if you are new the will sell you anythings with no care for you, I have learn on my self. If you used 16% nitro fuel go and buy 25% mix 50-50 with 16%-25% and run for a bit then put just 25% the engine will run lot more better. Good Luck

As for the engine problem when u change fuel you have to set the engine back to factory settings and tune again, i own firestorm 10T and done the same mistakes, you have to learn some how. Good luck

Try this In your manual book look for part number 86905 or go to webside http://www.hpieurope.com/exploded_views/10511.pdf there is screew that need to be more tighter if is to loose try and see, i have the same problem but calling to mirageracing team should fix this problem.

Hi I wish i could push my car hard, the only place that car last is in park and on car parks. Mirageracing sent me e-mail that the will look into the problem and why the spliting.

Hi all, Again having problem with suspension arms from HPI, i just sent email to mirageracing that supply my locol shop with parts for Firestorm complaining about the problem because cost me many every time i take my truck out, let see what they will write to my. I know u can purchase aluminium parts but what's the point when the original don't break just split open on joints, HPI should fix this or someone should bring good parts at good value. Adrian

Hi There is problem with the plastick arms, where there join both parts of the arm ( bottom & top u can see when u look close) they will snap under presure when u land hard or hit something. I will wait and see if anyone will bring better part for the firestorm 10T.

Hi all I have Firestorm 10T nitro version that purchase last tuesday, is great fun lot of people will be put of because is rear wheel drive but is great fun, I will recommend to any one, but there is issues with this, - ok on dirt and turmac( need silk tyres) -will do jumps too but not to high as i found on my - very fast for small engine After my big jump rear arm snap lost drive shatf(dogbone) but it was my fault u learn on mistake's. Advise get better part - aluminium shoks - extra-stiff carbon graphite rear and front suspension arms - front aluminium bulkhead don't forget that this is entry level nitro off road truck, you pay for what u get.
