lol I fell sorry for u, I have two and their both bitches, don't like to start, takes ages to get them fully operational and they hardly run a full min b4 they conk.
they're bloody terrible mate, you'll regret it like me and everyone else, they are the worst models i have ever reviewed. but i suppose you get what you pay for so in the long run its better to invest in a model a couple of hundred quid more. have fun with that team infinity engine... who ever they are haha.
i flooded mine, it was working ok but now i cant get it to start.. il wait for summer till its warmer mabe then start messing with it... do you know if thier are any other engines that fit that are better xD how what a avrage one costs? lol
well depends how much you wanna be spending, if you are a begginer just doin it bit of car park bashing then just get a thunder tiger model, the pro18bx is a good buy and very cheap. or a bit more expensive would be hpi's g3 engine i think its called, also a well established engine. maybe if you get hooked then get a novarossi engine haha thats for the big boys, google it and let yourself drool. wouldnt dare put it on a 'acme condor' tho.
also wanna say that temperture shouldnt affect the starting of the car too much, its only the fuel getting thicker, try using a hair dryer to get the engine head and fuel line etc nice and toasty. dont wanna put you off too much but the gear box isnt the best and soon (if you get it started) you'll find it will start playing up but anyway good luck
k il try that stuff :P but about the other cars i got the car a lot just for funzies to build xD but when i can b arsed to go outside and mess about i will try fix it lol
wat r u talking about had mine for a while now and runs great had no problems wiv it and it doesnt half take beating. i have to say the the earleir ones came with plastic clutch shoes which melted it no time and theve also started putting in the slightly better infinity engine with the v shaped cooling head on it as seen in the condor pro model so if u ask me brillent buy great for beginners but also has a lot of room for upgrades
do not buy this model, i bought one and the carb split which was leaving loads of fuel everywhere, the steering was offline and lots more stuff went wrong. so i bought the thunder tiger eb4 and it hasn't gone wrong yet.
yeah i have lots of problems with mine to ps to all new buyers of this car check the maniforld (exust) make sure theres no airleaks otherwise good luc fuking up your arm joints pulling the pull chord and then having no throtle
hi all I bout a new ACME Condor pro nitro buggy .18 engine when i start it takes off and when i push the brake it shuts off can anybody tell me why is doing that
Turn the idle up on your carb. Its the little screw turn it in until the idle rises. You should not set the idle of your car by the trim on your controller but on the car itself.
Mate I have bought the SE PRO and have to say well worth the money, not as expensive or as quick as Losi products but hell of a laugh. It is a new hobby and a superb starter machine.
Yes just make sure that it is the pro version. I bought the stock one (not pro) and I have ended up upgrading almost everything. If you buy the pro it deffinataly saves you money.
but like for a beginner i though the normal mode is better...... and if something break u can try to fix it so then ur learning some things but i have no clue i want to buy my first rc car soon XD
its really cool, but buy the PRO version with the upgraded parts so you dont end up breaking the plastic suspension and so on like i did, it will be cheaper in the long run. Its fast and fun though. A little tricky and temperamental at first.
hi i have this car and i have problems with the engine, it dosent start with out a fight on the pulley and it only start injecting fuel through the car any tips?
SRI Remote Toys do all the spare parts for this buggy

I don't recommend this car. They're poor quality, and not worth trying to find parts for.
