RC Driving Style
Okay, i finally get my car setup right. The carb doesn't move, new tires filter etc. everythings great. got it to start once kept quiting. decided to give it a rest for a few minutes. Took it back out, and it won't even try to start. glow plug is good, i've got fuel, its not flooded, I ca't figure out whats wrong
 
Sounds like the fuel isn't making it to the carb. If the glow plug is good,make sure the throttle is open enough to run and check for fuel flow to the carb. If you can't see it in the line. pull it loose and crank the engine while holding your finger over the exhaust to pressurise the tank, fuel should squirt out the line. Then make sure the carb isn't gummed up. That's where I would start.
 
he pretty much said it.. when u say wont start up.. be specific.. is it firing at all? is details details :)
 
Update:

We'll I got it to start. I was able to get the proper hex driver to tighti my carb. But the only problem is as I'm tightning it the head breaks of but the carb is still tight, so i decided to run it, and the carb of course falls off again so once i fix that proble, i have another problem. my pull start is messed up again to where it will only catch for 4-5" on every 4th pull or so.
 
raze pull starts are there down fall mine even with a new bearing wouldnt hook up i went and spent 30 bucks on a roto start and besides the crappy raze tires i havent had problem 1
 
You need to slosh the bearing in alcohol, and then dry it out. You also need to use alcohol on a rag to clean the oil off the shaft.
If, after doing that, it still misses, then it's cracked or just plain worn out.
 
I'm honestly ready to just give up on this. I think I'm just going to save up and get somthing more reliable. Possible a Revo? Maybe a Savage?
 
I think i might do this:

My friend has a cen matrix buggy. He upgraded the sero's has about $200 in spare parts, and other misc item. He wants to trade my raze, and cx2 heli for his buggy, deal?
 
How much is your heli worth? I am not a big fan of Duratrax....I feel your pain. I shot a Stupid-Tiger .27.....seriously.. I blasted the thing.....I hated it so bad. Never ran right from day one. May not be too bad of a trade. Add up what your is worth and his....make the call from there.
 
Well buggey= $300

Heli= $200

I don't know, i got my buggy running. and it seems to be working pretty well, except for the fact that the throttle sticks at WOT. So i may, i may not.
