Hey I'm kinda new to nitro but i have electric and i bought a new (from store) unopened firestorm 10 rtr last summer and have had nothing but problems with it. Anyway, now, it starts up fine and all that but in will only move about a foot then the wheels wont move forward anymore <but they willl move about a foot back and then stop again. Idk whatup wit it. :\ i think it has something to do with the gears.
 
This seems simple but check your brakes see if it's clamped on too tight :o

If that's not it take it into a shop or take apart the gear box :)
 
Check to see if you have a small pebble stuck in your spur gear. I happens to myself when I run my nitro on road.
