RC Driving Style
I'm almost dome breaking in two 3.3's. Now neither will idle. They idle for a couple of seconds then stall. One, in Revo was idling high bur still cut off. Have I messed up the engines? These things are going up for sale if I can't figure it out. Maybe Nitro's not for me. I've adjusted the LSN in and out with no solution.
 
Tries that on the Revo, it wants to move forward already
 
Ok then maybe a hotter plug will help and make sure the gap is not closing when you apply brake or even check your engine clutches for damage causing it to hang.
 
Clutch spring is a little loose I can move it an eighth
of an inch with no effort.
 
That will be the reason its moving while at idle. Get a new set of shoes and spring. The set is cheap. I'm thinking less than $10 shipped from ebay.
