    I impulsively bought a HPI bullet ST 3.0 as my first RC car (straight to nitro) and I wanted to just say that your tutorials and tuning tips have came in very handy and are very easy to follow as a beginner. Currently all broke in and tuned at 5 tanks however I’ve kept my HSN slightly rich still until it’s had around 10 tanks through! What a fun hobby ( and addictive )

      Probably from where it was sat in the box for a while, seems to be OK now :) Thanks for tuning in

    Just subscribed and this is a great video. I bought a Savage SS about 17years ago and never got it running properly. Think I knackered it by not breaking it in right. It idled fine and accelerated well but would then bog down. Had it looked at but no joy. Thinking it’s time for a new engine and start again!

    @chrisdone687 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you not stop the wheels spinning on the radio ? Throttle trim mate ? Or is that part of tuning and to early to do it ,or because there isn't any throttle trim and the carb regulates the rpm on it only ?? ...

    • @TheRCBiker
      @TheRCBiker  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes you can, but sometimes when these engines are new they won't run without the wheels spinning until they've had a few tanks through them. The wheels spinning isn't an issue as long as it's off the ground

    Good video 👍 Have the same car and struggle a bit with tuning. I set the hsn well also when I set the lsn counterclockwise, ie less fuel so I get a temp of between 120 and 130 degrees. When idling, it goes down to 110 degrees. Runs at 25% What do you recommend me to do? You put lsn on the video more fuel on lsn? Then the car will be good but as soon as I am idling a bit and should acceleration it dies a bit and then it comes so maybe get a little too much fuel in the beginning? 🤔😁

      I've not had the Vantage, is it a buggy? The carnage is a good car. They're both based on the same chassis so your decision would come down to whether you fancy a buggy or truck :)

    Hi, I am looking at one of these and the supplier recommends 16% fuel in a package which includes all the oils you need, is there any reason for this %age? Wondering if it’s for the break in procedure before moving to a higher %age? Thanks in advance

    • @TheRCBiker
      @TheRCBiker  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Lloyd, you want to be starting with the same percentage that you intend to use. 25% will be fine for break in and bashing. If it's just on a website you're seeing this kit I would suggest it's probably more just a general website package rather than recommended for your particular car.

    Hi mate I was just tuning my low speed needle on my nitro car it has started to be very responsive when i applied little throttle where it drifts and does donuts too but when i do full throttle it's very sluggish reaching to full speed is it because the high speed needle is too rich or could be something else?
