RC Driving Style
when the truck is driving the front tires rattle and it sounds like the engine has to work harder than usual to move the wheels.also, when it is driving and i bring it up to aa complete stop it sometimes revs up like it should be moving but doesn't actually go any where and then i give it a little push and it starts going fine. why does it hesitate.
 
The engine does not move the tires. The servos do. Rattling of the tires means they are probebly loose. Check the arms make sure they arentbroken and just in there. Check all screws make sure they are on seated on the hexes etc..
Also for the reving up. Thats your idle screw. Your idle screw is to lean. u need to richen it buy turning it counter clock wise as if ur going to unscrew a screw! But , do it in 1/8 increments in other words really small moves. Then try it and keep going till u find something u like.
Let me know if that doesn't work
 
sounds like your binding to me. check the driveline for damage, or something stuck in there. also pick up the front and spin the wheels see if it spins free. could be the bearings in the carriers, or the diff. if its popping then the diff is bad.
