Setting the mesh with paper is good for electrics but might be a little tight for a nitro. If you hear a winding noise it's too tight. If it's a grinding noise too loose. Sorry thats the best I can explain it without being there

your welcome to come set it for me..haha

So should I loosen it a tad?

 

[SMaxxin]

Just bring it over I'll set it for ya LOL. I just paper tuned mine and yes it would be a little tight. I would loosen a hair.

 

[JBradshaw00]

It spins pretty freely..If youwant to give me your email I will email you a video of it. lol

Just try it out and listen for anything that doesn't sound right. If it's too tight you should hear it before it does any real damage.

I use the paper trick on all my nitros. A standard peice of printer paper is fine for setting the gear mesh. If it spins freely, & it's not too loose, your fine..

I find a thick plastic would help better. Any leftover plactic bags from the rc parts you bought is the best. And use it as 2 layers.

I used to use the paper trick with great success, now I just do it by feel.
