Dynamite .32 motor HELP

[oldcars]

I need some help...i have a Dynamite .32 nitro motor and i can't get it to start up

my glow starter is fully charged, the glow plug it came with lights bright red when its on the starter and I'm using the correct nitro(20%)

the motor is brand new so the needles came pre-set for breaking it in

does anyone know whats wrong?

Pullstart or roto?
Do you see fuel coming out of the exhaust when trying to start it?
Did you prime it?

Make sure the carb is open 1mm also.

Please answer all 3 questions.

If you don't know what your doing, that would be best.
If you can, watch what he does closely.
Listen to the engine as he tunes it, and ask him questions on what does what.

May not be a bad idea to let them know that it's not broken in yet. That way they don't rev the snot out of it and cause harm before its ready.

well yesterday(its 3:30 in the morning, i just got off work) i took it to the hobby shop and had them look at it and guess what was making it not turn over..........

the stupid tiger drive rotostart!

it seems that the starter motor wasn't powerful enough to get it to fire....but i got a pullstarter and when i got home i primed it, pulled the cord 5 times and it fired nice and easy

yeah...i know a little about breaking in an engine from breaking in my nitro evader

isnt it like only half throttle for the first two tanks, then lean out the needles?
