RC Driving Style
When i was running my savage out in the snow, i noticed something weird. When i would stop and hit the gas and it would sputter like it was running to lean. I know it wasn't because there was a thick trail of blue smoke coming from the exaust at full throttle! When i would drive it just on the pavement it was fine but when i went in the snow it sputtered. I also have the hpi polished tuned pipe and motor saver air filter.
 
No, it sounded like it does when it is running out of gas. Thats how i know it was acting like it was too lean.
 
Ratzo might be right,it may be to rich,it also take's less power to move the tires on pavement then it might in snow,so i would do a little test in tune,adjust the low end needle if your running at half throttle most of the time,then just use small increment's on the other needle's to get a close tune
 
no man, i usually just punch it! Now i run in the grass and have started to lean it out and it does huge wheelies!!!!!!
