I have this sometimes with my T Maxx. I find that if i just adjust the throttle trim on my remote so there is slightly more gas than on idle then start it and once its running just leave the glow plug heater on for a further 5-10 seconds just to give the engine chance to get moving and and warm enough to keep it ticking over without the glow plug heater. Then do a couple of passes and re trim the remote. Sometimes just leaving the glow plug heater on that few extra seconds till the engine warms a little is enough.

whats OWB?

let it warm up before applying any throttle. Get the revs up slowly while the car is up on a block so the wheels can free spin (meaning less load on the engine). The engine crank case and the pipe can load up with fuel/oil and needs to be cleared out with some good revs.

If its a rich bog, it while kind of burble when accelerating. If its a low end lean bog it will cut out almost immediately. Try this out while the wheels are free spinning.

Might be of some help.
