Ok guys see if you can work this out....

So i took my car to the hobby shop today the guy took five minutes and had the car screaming which was all good.But he was tuneing my car without the radio just by the reciever arm on the slide of the carby.All went well but wnen i got it home and went to use it it was playing up bogging etc.I'm thinking that the radio may be opening the carby too much makeing it play up.if i slowly pull the throttle on to high speed it goes good.But when i squirt it full throttle straight away it bogs and carrys on any ideas??????:\PLEASE HELP GUYS!!!!:D
 
Its too lean or rich. I'm a little incapacitated at the moment and don't remember which you need. But the hsn needs to be adjusted.
 
I've been over and over with this lean and rich stuff.i followed the chart on here and it told me that if the motor was boggin out the hsn either needed to be adjusted either more lean or rich and I gave up on the end.because whatever I did made it bog out.All to find out it had jack poop to do with the hsn.It was the friggin lsn not getting enough fuel.The chart is up the poop.The worst part about it is it reccomends me to adjust the needles at idle on factory settings.Factory settings are only good for new motors that need to be broken in.My motor won't even start on factory settings.its a bastard of a thing lol.And now I found out my new glow plug I got last week is stuffed lol.I'm guessing that could have caused some problems too.Will this chaos ever end:\

How old are your batteries in your radio system Do you use a RX Hump pack or AA batt's... RX hump pack's offer more power to run your throttle & steering & I run RX Packs in all 4 of my Rig's.....
 
So you followed the chart, but did you read the entire post? When tuning the engine you have to adjust both the hsn and the lsn, not just one. Easiest way for you to adjust the lsn is the pinch test, although it may not be the best I suggest you to try it. If you can't find it on here, Google it.
Also I wouldn't be letting the guy at the shop tune my car without the transmitter, that's just stupid. Somewhere in the sticky, it says how to adjust your throttle gap, I'd go by that before taking it back to the shop where there's a good chance you're going to have a runaway rc.
The chart and that sticky has worked for me and I'm sure plenty of others, so I don't see how it's "up the poop". Unless of course you're doing something wrong, which is most likely happening here.
 
Check you carb, seal the engine, sounds like you have an air leak!, replace any and all o-rings.....also check you piston condition: look through the exhaust port and see if the silver lining is worn off, you can tell by the colour if its worn out it will have a brass colour
 
You can't just start it and tune it. It needs to be at running temp. Any adjustment you make will also need to be run for about half a minute for the engine to adjust to the new setting. If it's been run too rich it will need to blow out the excess.
The needle settings are critical. Pay close attention and move them in small increments.

Think of a clock face and move them about 1 hour at a time.
