    HPI firestorm radio problem

    I have a HPI firestorm, My problem is the car will not respond to the remote control when engine is running. It responds to the radio perfectly when the engine is not running. I have found out that when anything metal (Petrol can, Glowplug) touches the carburettor it sends the car crazy. Any...

    HPi firestorm 10t tuning

    Well... i finally got my firestorm broken in, i tuned it up so its runs about 230 degrees with a decent high end, but my problem is there is little low end response. I've tried playing with the low speed needle but have gotten little difference with it. Any suggestions?

    HPI Firestorm 10t

    I am looking about getting one of these, I found a used one for $150 that has been ran less than 10x, per the person selling he used ARO after each run and upgraded the steering and throttle servos to jr590 and jr270. I'm just looking to see if this is a good purchase and what else I might need...

    Help with Hpi Firestorm!

    I am a newbie and I request help. My practically new Firestorm was working reasonably ok till I found that the engine was stopping and hard to pull start. An over enthusiastic yank on the pullstarter cord prevented its retraction. I removed the pullstarter and the one way bearing(OWB) under it...

    From 'bashers' to racers - the Firestorm has plenty for everyone. The pre-assembled chassis and painted & trimmed body are ideal for the nitro newcomer, while the pure racing technology imbued in the truck make it clear that it can take anything you can throw at it! Racing enthusiasts will...
