Hi, I am havin troubles starting my Nitro. I was wondering if you vould help. I pull the pulstart again and again until my arm is sore. NOTHING! The fuel tubbing seems ok, the glow plug ok but when i turn the flywheel with my finger I hear a grinding sound could it be time for a new piston and sleeve or could it be dirt. HELP!

well you definatly should not hear any kind of grinding sounds if you turn it buy hand or otherwise

[Grinder]

How do you know the glow plug is OK?  They can LOOK ok but that doesn't mean they are...  try a new glow plug first.  Set the carb up to the default position to get a starting position...

Well, I guess Nitro just isn't just for me... I have decided to sell it and buy an electric o well... What should I get a stadium truck or an onroad sedan?

Depends on if you want to race or not.

We run 1/10 scale touring cars during the summer, starting this year on April 30th.  There has been no organized off-road racing in Victoria for over 10 years.

Most people get far more enjoyment out of their R/C stuff when they race rather than just playing; the novelty of playing does wear off.

[Grinder]

Agreed.  I'd hate to get rid of my off-road stuff 'cause its still a blast to rip around with but racing is definately where its at!!!

Ok I will probably get a TC4 sedan RTR or something probably will join the club this summer never know...

if u want a rtr tc4 then pm the handl RYY he still has one for sale and i think he askign for 250

[Grinder]

Electric is definately the way to start.... as I'm sure you know...  I'd highly recomend getting a decent used one then go from there...

[haddow]

yes, get a hold of ryan (RYY) he has exactly what you need and for a good price.

Ryan is sold out of TC4's

[SmartechRC]

So hes sold out of TC4's? well I think after I sell my nitro I will have enough money to by the electric.
