My Volcano S30 will not start.. I have new fuel, new fuel filter, I cleaned the lines out just to be sure..
My carb settings are LSN 3 turns out and HSN 3 1/2 turns out.
New hot glow plug that tested good and I've got a full charge on my igniter.
Wtf could be the issue?
I've adjusted the LSN a...
Howdy I'm Dennis and I've been a mechanic on gas, Diesel engines as well as all kinds of machinery for the last Ten solid years. Done everything from an oil change to swapping motors to make a race deadline.
I am naturally falling in love with Nitro RC because to be honest here, They are...
I have a Redcat Nitro Shockwave. Sometimes after driving it at its top speed the back wheel locks up CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE and another problem is that after driving it at top speed it will just randomly shut off.
So.. a buddy of mine calls and says "I've got 2 Revos, a Mini revo and a Redcat Rampage. They all need work and I'm tired of messing with them"
As he's an over the road truck driver, and I'm laid off, I took him up on the offer to tinker.
I'm really starting to understand why you guys bash on...
Sold my two trucks and here be the result. I am tearing it down and lock tightening everything and ca gluing everything. If it breaks it will get aluminum. Tada!
hi guys,
i am new to this world and i was looking to buy either of these two trucks. i am totally confused as to which one is better ? i heard that the aluminium chassis on the redcat is strong but will not last long as it would bend and cause trouble and on the other hand the HIC chassis on...
Howdy folks,
I picked this up on ebay with the knowledge that it had engine problems to begin with. When I got it, i found that the previous owner had opened up all the idle and mixture screws so everything was completely un-calibrated. I was wondering if anyone knew of the factory settings...
I am curious if anyone here has had any experience with this company, I have read a few reviews online that I found (of old vehicles) and they all sound good but I would like to know what you all think. Right now I am in limbo between two vehicles, the Shockwave and the Tornado S30. So tell me...
Hi, I'm looking for a new engine for my Redcat Racing Shockwave buggy and I am not sure which engine will fit. Currently I'm using the stock VX 16 engine, which has a side exhaust manifold. My budget is about 150-175 CAN. Hopefully somebody could help! its a shockwave
Well I picked up a Redcat Chimera 1/5 sandrail. Had several problems right off. The kill switch was bad, the steering servo failed, roll cage was just as strong as a house of cards. The exhaust broke, and the ONLY part covered by warranty was the servo.
With all of the problems I just did not...
I am new to the hobby. I purchased a Redcat volcano s30. I am waiting for it to arrive. Just wondering if anyone runs these. Also would like some info on maintaining the nitro engines. Thanks...
I was in a toss up between two trucks. I ended up getting the RedCat Chimera. In less than a week I have somehow broken a lower suspension arm, the rear wing mount, cracked the bar that the hood mounts to and had a steering servo seize. I was very impressed right off. The first time I tried to...
I know this has been beat to death on EVERY forum i am sure lol. Is there any nitro that is worth checking out that is under 300? I was looking at the shockwave but i heard it tends to be hard to keep running but i am sure this could be do to a new user not knowing how and why we brake in...
Bought this supposed to be broken down nitro Volcano S30 for 35 bucks. Engine has great compression and got it running just fine. Only problem I have is when it cranks up it automatically goes to full throttle and doesn't idle low at all. I have a 1-2 mm gap on the carb opening like I have seen...
