Hi!
I have this HPI Trophy 3.5. It drives really well and with no problem at all. However, when i have used 3/4 of a tank and it's around as hot as it gets, it starts to run really bad.
Everytime i hit the brakes it just dies, it has no trouble standing in neutral, but whenever i drive it and i brake, it just dies. My friends and i have tried tuning it for a whole day without it getting any better.
It's not stable at all when idling, it goes up and down and no matter how we tune the low or high speed, it's the same thing.
so since it's only when accelerating and then braking we were thinking that it must be the low speed needle, so we turned the high speed to default, and then startet messing with the low speed. We couldn't get it to run clean when idling, but it runs with no problem in higher rpm, but when we turn it to the rpm where it sound like it's running clean, it's so high that it needs the brakes on not to move.
If we cool it for 10 min, it runs great, and even by turning both the high speed and low speed 1/8 each way didn't make it run worse on the cold engine.
I'm not sure what the problem is, it has been like this since i got it, we have a lot of other cars which we have no problem turning.
