It's a .18 size engine I ran mine in with 10% then it will handle and run well on 20%. Run it in off the ground on a stand as to not put un necessary wear on your clutch. Run 4-5 tanks 10% at idle and then pop your 20% in and do some slowish driving figure 8's for another 4 tanks then you can start giving it a bit. It's a great RC to learn with they are very adjustable and reasonably easy to tune. Also were you put the batteries in the transmitter there is a little tool to adjust your end points. Which means range of steering etc and most important when u adjust the high throttle end point open it with the tool until it lines up with the very edge of the carb hole as to prevent waste of fuel and give you the correct full throttle. It's all in the owners manual so be sure to check it out so you learn how to do it correctly. Also big must do, SET THE FAIL SAFE on the receiver it explains how to do it in the manual. So important because if it takes off on you by itself you turn the controller off and it will pull the brakes on full and the truck will stop running off. So read and understand the owners manual get it run in be patient it will get through the run in tanks. Learn by trial and error to set up your suspension. Best to run 35 weight oil in each of the 8 shocks with zero preload, run 2 degrees camber on front wheels and 3 degrees camber on the rear ( you will need a camber gauge) ( it's all in the owners manual how to) this will help you to keep the truck on its wheels and not traction roll when cornering. Use the suspension clips supplied to get it 42mm ride height for the front and 40 in the rear. All sounds a lot but read the manual, Google how to or watch how others show how to do these things on TH-cam. You'll pick it up pretty quick. By the way you'll be impressed with the Hpi bullet 3.0 nitro Mt once run in, set up and tuned with 20% they are a little power house, they handle once set up almost like a buggy and start off small, but they jump pretty level. So to recap if your new to nitro really important to read and learn the owners manual be patient run it in properly learn how to set up the suspension learn how to tune DON'T FORGET TO SET YOUR FAIL SAFE and go and enjoy your new rc. You'll love it.
@@khalidatiq3404 no problem like I said read up on the owner manual SET THE FAIL SAFE ON THE RECEIVER be patient running it In ( on a stand) and go and enjoy your truck. Once run in, tuned and set up they are a little rocket ship. You'll love it 🏆🏆
One thing you can do when an engine is new and has not been broken in. Unless the weather is extremely hot, use a hair dryer or a heat gun to warm up the engine. Do this before you add your fuel for safety. This helps get the engine started faster. And eases the friction between the piston and sleeve as the break in happens.
Hey Dude, your rear tyres are on back to front, better grip if they match the front direction
Mines coming in today hopefully, I'm new to nitro.. which fuel % is best ?
Thx :)

equipment it;s angry beast because he growls at the dogs and throws himself at the cameras, heheh
Yo man, i’m looking to buy one myself but i can’t find the right fuel for the car, could you send me the link or what fuel you use?
Go to Bonesbrew and get some “20 (or 30) percent nitro with 8 percent (or more) oil”.
Best fuel you could ever run
