modifiedevo
thx

aim= m0difi3dglitchl2 :idea:

little dude ,we have chatted recently and in my heart i think you should keep the mill you have now and learn the basics of tuning and setting it up before advanceing to another mill,your only 12 and you told me your self that you didnt even know what a piston and sleeve was or where the airflilter even was on yours ,
please refrain from upgrading to a faster mill right now and get the tuning thing down pact
just a thread or so ago you asked this question
how do i know when a glo-plug is bad and how do i remove it ,thats a sure sign of needing to learn something other then going fast .
i am not slamming you nor am i tring to make you mad here just the straight facts
take care and if you need any further help feel free to pm me or talk ot me on aim

 

[2mcgrath]

you can also change your gearing to get more top speed if thats what your after.it would save some money

 

[Plaidfish]

Racin makes a good point...instead of dumping money down the drain on a high end mill try tuning and changing gear ratios......but you do need to know all these aspects of your car or it will run like ass alot.....gearing is a good way to learn about driveline tuning....remember this smaller Clutchbell gear will give more acceleration or low end......the same effect when you use a larger Spur gear.....just like a 10 spd bicycle.....when you're in th ebig ring in front it's real hard to start it but once it's moving it gets easier for you to turn the gear and all of a sudden you're haulin a$$.....if you want more top end speed you'd use a larger Clutchbell or smaller spur gears.......if you're 12 years old I bet this hobby can earn you some serious extra credit in school....
gear ratio chart (simple to do) for a math class..
simple explanation of how a 2-stroke engine works, and then get the teacher to let you show your ride off......
you'll probably get that English asignment to write a detailed step by step on how to build or make something, (pick any part on your car and write it out how you assembled it)......
How did I have the brainiac idea?????
I did the same thing at 12 w/ my electric RCs........

 

[redhatman]

sorry to say, but i agree with racin. You dont want to buy a good mill and then ruin it from not tuning right. You showed me how much stuff you have on rc, but nothings like the real thing. Just get good at tuning and learn when to richen what needle. Then get a good mill. just my tho.

 

[johnnynfl05]

shoot I'm 27 and I'm still trying to learn how to tune my engine
lol
i am not thinking to upgrade to anything but keep buying more glow plugs
lol
this is my first nitro car, but i will catch on,

chill man i already now how to tune the engine and breakin and where the air filter and piston is and the glo plug and the carb and how to change engins recievers etc...more and tune...my cuzin tought me so face it...your mean and dont even care about ne one and i know this is a good engine the one thats stock and i have known it goes 60-70 and I'm trying to learn right now how to take the engine apart with my cuzins old one :hammer:

 

[vbgagnon]

I'm thinking of getting a new reciever and servo that would be able to compute and work with eachother fine and get me sharper turns and good not too much skidding and stuff and like rapidly change my directiron in lessor than 2 in a half seconds and this is for my car wich u all shud know is rs4 3 evo thx again...lol and is the one that came with it already like taht cuz yeahhh other wise theres no point i just wanna get some hop ups this is one of them i want thx again

well do u have a tutorial ona how to replace it or ne links if so thanxxs

Well I was just wondering how long it takes to take the piston off and replace it?...and dont forget ARRGH ...

Seeing just these 3 posts it doesn't know like you know what your doing. You have two options here.....You can start doing some research and listen to the advice these guys give you OR you can get defensive like your last post. I would suggest you not get defensive because once you step on the toes of long standing members your stay here will be miserable.

I gaurentee that your car or your cousin's car or whoever's car does not go 60-70 miles per hour. There are only a few cars if that that will reach those speeds and they are extremely difficult to handle at that speed. Learn your car inside and out, when you really know what your doing start upgrading. There are more important things to upgrade before your engine.

Do some research then go have some fun.

look,i was only try to help and give advise
i am glad your learning and hopefully you have learnt alot since the last time we chatted
and IF i am mean and dont care i would not have even posted to the damn thread to begin with i would have just read nad kept looking around ,all i see is an ungrateful child that is now dissing ppl for trying to help out ,namely me
and upon that good luck with your r/c's hopefully you will actually listen to ppl in here and like the hobby
later

btw:if you want a good mill get the OS .12 TZ
just my opinion

 

[Monkey Wrench]

I've been hesitant to reply to any of these because, frankly, reading your posts makes me dizzy. You ask questions like where a glow plug is and requesting a tutorial on how to change one, now suddenly you're an expert tuner because you spoke with your cousin? Hey, I know where the moon is, that is orbits the earth every 28 days, that we only see one side of it, that the gravitational force on the face is 1/6th earth's and that man has actually landed there. Does that make me an astronomer? My point is, working with your cousin for a day or two does not make you an expert nor does it give you the right to be rude and disrespectful to a member that clearly was trying to help you! You are simply looking for someone to give you the answer you want to hear, so here it goes:

Yeah, the Associated LRP Z.12R Team Engine is an awesome engine! It'll literally melt the rubber off the rims!


However, keep in mind the following:
1. I don't own a RS4 3 Evo, so I have no idea if it'll fit.
2. I don't know poop about AE engines, so for all I know it's manufactured by Oompa-Loompa's when they're not making Wonka bars.
3. I have yet to see a R/C car got 70 MPH and I'd wonder why in the hell I'd need one to go that fast anyway?
4. I don't know you're gearing, so how the hell should I know if it'll go 70? Hell, I can take the electric motor from and erector set and make it go 70!

Look, clearly you're excited about the hobby, and that is awesome! You're at the right place to ask questions and seek advice, but if you feel it necessary to get lippy with a member because they're not telling you what you want to hear, do us all a favor and go somewhere else. Folks like Racin_38, Plaidfish, .21RC10GT and many others have provided me with invaluable tips and advice, so yes, it pisses me off when you ask a question then respond like a spoiled smart-ass to the answer, especially since it's clear you are new to all of this. Either take the opportunity to learn about all of this or just shut up!

This is true! Get a attitude, and I'm sure Ill help contribute..

handling is about 50 more times important than speed. Get your handling down to a T, and then worry about speed later.

 

[Plaidfish]

lil man, like monkey wrench said, being excited is great......NO-ONE learns to tune an engine w/ no experience in a day or 2.....sorry if you don't know what you're listening to or looking for......having been a 12 year old, I think every guy in here understands the excitement and energy you have.....don't let it make you say things you can't back up.....alot of us have been into these toys for years off and on and can smell BS when it's being dropped.......just ask youself (before you post) if you really want to bring your knowledge of this hobby to a debate against an accumulative 100+ years experience here.......because we will call you on it......

I recommend this book to all new comers to the hobby
http://www.southeastrc.com/Items/StdItemView.aspx?lookup=MANDVD02
has all kinds of great info.....all about not just engine tuning but CLutches, suspension, even painting bodies.....excellent resource to have in your box....

 

[Diver6127]

I can gaurantee that your cousins car does not reach 60-70 MPH. For a touring car to do that, effectively with a 2 speed transmition, it will take extremely tall gearing and a very powerful engine. To do it with a .12 or .15 is near impossible. You can reach close to 50 mph but it will take a kit that is engineered for lightness and an engine that can perform extremely high #'s in torque and HP as well as very fast spooling.

I have owned only one touring car that even hit above 60 and was reaching 70 mph. That was the schumacher Fusion21. It had a 3 speed an a .21BB to power it. Even then, I can only estimate the speed but to get it into third gear, I needed the better part of a football field.

I have been known on this board as one of the few that actually race touring cars on a regular basis (every possible weekend). There are very few of us here that do race competatively and can say that your claims are far fetched. Unless radar gun or other forms of proof can be manifested.

Tuning can be a pain and is,at most, an art. You have just started tuning and I commend you for taking the step in learning. Just remember, even a car with a bad tune can run (if you can get it to turn over). It's getting it to perform at it's optimum level that is difficult. Tuning can change many times in one day. I can personally say that I change the tune on my engines at least 3 times during the course of the day. Sometimes that even includes changing plugs. Not because they are bad, but because the days conditions have changed and the plug is not suited for that plug.

I do know what it's like to be 12 and very excited. Unfortunately that can also mean pride an sharpness of the tongue. My suggestion to you is to tone down the pride, reactions and humble yourself. Your short time in this hobby is ony a drop in the bucket when compared to others that are even more into this hobby.

Education and knowledge is useless if your quick to react. Take baby steps towards learning more about this hobby. From what I can gather, you just started in the hobby and run in the park or street in front of your house. That is fine but speed can either be enjoyed or literally come and bite you in the ass.

A car that can even hit 45 mph is a handful to keep performing well. To hit 60+, it can be a nightmare. Just keep in mind that there are 2 kinds of speed. Perceived and actual speed. I honestly think you are judging by "perceived speed." As manyhave said before, and will continualy say to speed claims ... prove it. That is the only way to keep from being flamed.

If you have any more questions, I suggest searching then posting if answers are not found. Welcome to the addiction.

 

[Bouzouki]

All the cars were hitting 55-60 on the tracks 170 ft. straight, and thats 1/8 scale with C5's, 21-3's, and 321P's.

LHS owner had a nice radar gun on him.

But these guys are right, the infield is more importent than the straight, you can have a decent engine, be consistant and win.

Your trying not to hit anything and drive smooth, not go all out.

Just felt like sharing

 

[m0difi3dRs4eVo]

my cuzin and me tune it good and break in he explaind it to me srry to say and i got the mill it works fine ya know oh yeah he has 4 nitro cars and hes 21 i think he knows what hes doing so stfu when you dont even know who i am and saying poop that i dont know about Tuning ...

 

[redhatman]

ok rs4evo, you are being way to defensive. You can ask anyone here, and I used to always ask questions and would get somewhat anoying. Now ask me where i learned the most, and 100% sure it was from these guys. You seemed like a nice guy at first, but if you arent willing to take advice and free information, i suggest you find somewhere else to post otherwise everyone will just get mad at you when you they suggest something and you tell them they are wrong. Just my

 

[Got Nitro?]

Dude how can you say Racin_38 is rude? he's a nice guy,everybody who's giving opinions know's what there talking about it,if you don't want a opinion,don't fiddlesticking ask for it.

 

[Tweak]

my cuzin and me tune it good and break in he explaind it to me srry to say and i got the mill it works fine ya know oh yeah he has 4 nitro cars and hes 21 i think he knows what hes doing so stfu when you dont even know who i am and saying poop that i dont know about Tuning ...

WAY to defensive there pal. Almost everone who replied to this useless thread was trying to help. Don't come in here steeping on everyone because your "21" year old cousin taught you how to tune an engine. Most of the people here have been tuning mills for years- Most have forgoten more than you will ever know about these things, as it is basicly a lifestyle for them.

Now to the nitty gritty. You have been soliciting help from several members here on RCNT for help and other pointless crap that no one cares about. You are begining to annoy quite a few people and IMO you should cut your losses and even perhaps appologize to some of our more upstanding members you have bashed on in this thread alone- Not to mention chats and other venues. I am all for helping a person who is generally nice and...not a brat, but this is out of hand. From now on try a little research before you come asking stupid crap like where a glow plug is located or how fast and engine will go.

One last thing- Cut down on the language, thats for the free-for-all forum, not here where mixed company might be subjected to it.

I negleceted to call you out in the open untill now because I figured you would take a hint and back off. I am sorry for puting it here where everyone can see, but you just do not learn.

Thanks for the link, this will be helpful to me

m0difi3dRs4eVo I would suggest straightening up your act and acting like a decent member of the community before you get banned. Many of the very newbie questions you have are available on the net and then once you learn the basics of how nitro engines work and what is what on your R/C search for your tougher questions, chances are 99.9% of the time its probably been asked 100 times before.

I'm sorry but I'm gonna say what I'm pretty sure everyone is thinking. Dude your a arrogant little prick. You come in here asking tons of retarded questions and then when you get the answers to them, you dont accept it, and think your 21 year old cousin is the Rc god. If thats the case, call him and as for his "Tutorial on where a Glow plug goes". And another thing, your acting as if this dude whos 21 and has 4 rc's is god and been around so much, when actually theres dudes in here who have been RACING and RCING alone for 21 years. So who do you think is going to be more knowledgable? And sure the kid might have 4 rc's.. Thats great and if you think thats going to impress people here, your way off. There are people here who have a dozen rc's. I'm not one of them, but I know that since I've been in the Rc game (2 years and change) I've had over a dozen Rc's. I know your a noob and excited to get into Rc which is awesome, but dont be a prick about it, and instead of being defensive with people in here, why dont you learn from them. 95% of the people in here with 500+ posts know exactly what there talking about, and if they dont, they know they can find the answers here. If for some reason people know the answer (Which is VERY VERY rare) they can point you in the right direction on where to find the answer. If ya dont likemature knowledgable TRUE Rc'ers, why dont you go over to Rcu with the rest of the dumbass's bench racing with there so called "70 mph supercharged Nos filled Smartechs".
