RC Driving Style
Yesturday was driving m rs4 3 it has a os max 18 engine with a light weight fly wheel. Every time i drive it the clutch bell would always come off. And my gears would gets stip. So i nothice that it was the fly wheel getting lose each i drive it . So i had put threadlock so it would happen again. Everything went alrite until the third day of rideing it. I notice that the screw that hold the fly wheel made a hole in the middle of the fly wheel. Making the fly wheel lose and not being able to turn on. I put the factory fly wheel. And the car doesn't stay on. It shut off everytime i hit the gas. I change the plug, i check if it was getting few to the carb. check it the fly wheel was lose. One more thing i tighten everything real tight in the fl wheel.
 
Try replacing the small cone lookin like thing on the fly wheel. if that gets worn the flywheel wont stay on. also make sure the places you put thread lock are clean and you are using blue not green right.
 
Ok, but proof read your post before you submit it. It had alot of errors and I could not understand it the first time I read it.
 
First off, it sounds as the clutch engagement is more your problem. If you can't get the CB to stay on we can't fix the problem. Are you shimming this new flywheel on right? The flywheel should still spin freely when installed properly. As far as putting on the old flywheel on that can be your tuning. Let us know

Sounds like a collet problem to me. Make sure you have the right collet (cone bushing) for your flywheel. If the Fly wheel isn't getting tight around the collet it will come loose. As far as your CB comming off, like Jon2 said, Make sure the bell spins free and isn't binding, also make sure you have good bearings.
 
i found the cone looking thing was shimming so i had replace it. Now the car stay on but when i give it gas it shut off. i tune it already. I'm about to give up
