[RcZandMore]

do nitros have motors..

[nitrorcx]

@RcZandMore No nitro car/trucks have engines.Electric models uses motors.

[punchmaster123]

I'm having trouble with mine. I have it set to where there's only a millimeter opening during idle (that's by just using the idle trim knob on the controller) and it idles fine most of the time. But when I engage the brakes, the servo closes the throttle completely, and the engine stalls out. Also, it runs EXTREMELY rich and dies after going at full throttle for 2 seconds. Can someone please help me!?

[JoshuaPlayer23]

When you set it to factory setting is that to break in the engine!!!???!!??!? some please help!!!

[MW2MODDERS1]

[iHelpUrPC]

[jeanmarc306]

@iHelpUrPC shit that the exact same question him asking my self

[kartingkid88]

dose the 2.5 turns for the high speed and low speed aply for all nitro cars? like a 1/8 scale car as well?

[siciliancara]

For some reason this guy reminds me of Mythbusters?

[tim96293]

i have the same car and it is shit had nothing but problems with it

[chrisyoung333]

The guy says there are two ways to set the idle - electronically and mechanically. WRONG - there is only one way to set it and that's mechanically.

If you "set it" electronically, your engine will most likely stop everytime you apply the brakes!

[stormhawk212]

can u please tell me what the name of this nitro rc car is because i want to buy it can u also tell me how much it cost

[234mystery]

does nitrorcx.com sell nitro fuel. i didnt see it on their website??

[airpartical]

These videos are GREAT. Haven't started my car in a while so its nice to come back and revise :)

[Dmention8]

Too lean out the engine, do you turn the needle anticlockwise or clockwise?

[rconekenoby]

Tanks

[crippledasspimp]

[BrokenWingMedia]

[LeGiTKiLLeR34]

i always prime my buggie by putting my finger over the exaust pipe n not over the carborator do u know wich one is better.

[fatcobra93]

um...if your running on a rich setting there will be hardly any smoke but there will be raw fuel leaking out. Get your facts straight

[SanchezBoss209]

@fatcobra93 hey so wats happening wen there hella smoke comming out of the exhaust but its running perfectly an idling perfectly? is dats good or bad?

[GJCrawler]

is the stock setting on the Exceed 1/8 MadWarrior .28 good to break it in? or will i have to change the carb. setting?

[DOEBOY1295]

can anyone tell me what it means when i start my hpi nitro rc car and i give it a little gas it dies out i cant even go fast at all please help?????????

[MIKOLAJ2012]

[MIKOLAJ2012]

[FORDYtg18]

Good vid my nitro car way better!!!!

[tiffanyjames45]

you shold not adjust your idle with your radio. it should always stay in the center position. again what a rookie!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tiffanyjames45]

you shouldnt take your air cleaner off all the time. good way to get dirt in there. and where is your ziptie to hold it on... what a rookie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[prowl002]

can you tell me where i could buy spare glow plugs

[spikedad11]

whats the low and high sped neadle and when and how do i use them??? thanks mike

[kiyan786]

can anyone tell me where i can get a nitro from cheap please???

[nitrorcx]

@kiyan786 Definitely Nitrorcx. com. Check it out!! -cn

[Ishmum123456]

@nitrorcx to reassure, I bought from nitrorcx 13 days ago and it arrived, mine was a exceed hyperspeed and it was COOL!!

a question-- I followed your tutorial, then when I try to give it some throttle it just stops the engine. Why?

[surfydude94]

@kiyan786 Ebay

[MrAustinator23]

@kiyan786 or course he gonna say his company 

[1999151]

@kiyan786 they might seem cheap but they break easily not worth it buy a traxxas

[wesajarjar]

@kiyan786 cheapest on nitrorcx was like 120 for a 1/10th scale it seems like a good deal :)

[youngant271]

Is that the exceed rc ultra?

[dearbornerik]

whats the temp your car should run? and shoud you run and shut down for 20 min for a cool down?

[nitrorcx]

@dearbornerik A cool down between batteries for 5-10 minutes should be fine =) -cn

[4224football]

@nitrorcx Can I put a .21 engine in a 1/10 exceed rc forza.

[dolphinsfans00777]

I give nitrorcx major credit because they have came a long way with the quality of these cars. they keep them very affordable for the middle class man. 

[98treeman]

what kind of rc car is that

[nitrorcx]

@98treeman This is the Ultra 2 Speed! Thank you for your inquiry!

[marioman5132]

do you have to do that every time you turn on your rc car

[nitrorcx]

@marioman5132 You have to do that to break into your engine. After that, the procedure would be necessary if tuning and trimming is needed.

[TheExceed1]

I saw you when you got the default setting off the car for the tunning. Does the default setting goes for the rc exceed 1/10 scale nitro off-road nitro buggy 16.engine because I screwed up on my tunning and I need the default setting for rc exceed 1/10 scale nitro off-road nitro buggy. Can I used theses stock settings for mine. Reply back

[Cooldudemills]

what do you do if no gas is coming from the gas tank into the carburater and we tryd every method we could find to get gas to the carb! what is wrong with it?

[Cooldudemills]

how long do you charge your glowplug igniter?

[fallenkevinl]

i couldnt find any nitro fuel at my local hobby store now what.... I want a nitro buggy not and electric one! Please help

[nitrorcx]

@fallenkevinl Not a problem, Fallenkevini! Hm, would there be another local hobby store you can find the 20% nitro gas that you need? We apologize for the inconvenience because we do not carry the fuel for our customers to purchase due to hazardous issues during delivery. Hope the information helped. -cn

[fallenkevinl]

@nitrorcx talked to a few friends with nitro rc cars and they said EBAY =] thx for the help

[nitrorcx]

@fallenkevinl Awesome! Glad you got the assistance you needed, Fallenkevinl! You have a great one! -cn

[Greekbro]

Too "mean" for the low and high needles means tightening it too much and "lean" means loosening?

[Cooldudemills]

if on the box it says "ready to run out of the box" do you have to tune it like this or can you just go and drive it without tuning it?

[nitrorcx]

@Cooldudemills Great question, Cooldudemills! If it is an electric car, the nitro engine tuning video does not need to be performed.

[rccarvids294]

thanks for the info =D one of the best videos ive seen on tuning

[nitrorcx]

@rccarvids294 Glad the video helped, Rccarvids294! :D -cn

[Cooldudemills]

how do u no if ur glowplug fails on ur first run?

[1fctry]

It would be a lot easier if you made videos for every thing like instaling pistons changing brake pads and all about the cars.

[1fctry]

thats the stupidest thing ever 2 1/2 is not rich at all it was creeping foreward? thats because its lean. try richening the low end se if it crawls foreward now!

[mahomieg]

wht car is this?

[nitrorcx]

@mahomieg That is the 1/10 ultra nitro car, Mahomieg! Check it out at nitrorcx. com

[mahomieg]

@nitrorcx ya i thauhght so i accually have one anad its awesome

[nitrorcx]

@meatloaf396 That's awesome =) We're just here to assist our hobbyists and customers with questions, that's all. The information may assist people who are concerned or interested. Thank you, Meatload396! 

[nitrorcx]

@meatloaf396 Hey meatloaf396, thanks for the comment! It's always good practice to turn on the radio first then turn on the car, and when done using, turn off the car first and then the radio. This actually prevents mishaps if somehow your signal receives radio interference. Hope the information helped!

[pawel12060]

can you give me some tips on what to do or what not to do when i get my rc car so i dont damage it or anything else?

[nitrorcx]

@pawel12060 Great question, Pawel 12060! Our techs would advice you the first thing you should do when you get your car is read the manual and familiarize yourself with common terms and the basic operations and functions of the car. If you have questions, feel more than welcomed to ask us! Hope the information helped!

[pawel12060]

@nitrorcx ok thanks

[nitrorcx]

@pawel12060 No problem, Pawel12060! Always glad to help! :D -cn

[30Dannyc]

[mudding456]

[bjmxd]

im just wondring go glow plugs sell on your website because i see the glow plug starter but not the glow plug itself and does the car come with 1 or 2 glow plugs?

[nitrorcx]

@bjmxd Hi Bjmxd, thank you for your inquiry! We sure do sell individual glow plugs on Nitrorcx . com. It comes with 1 glow plug. Hope that answered your questions.

[damanisdakila]

[kryton590]

what kind of tires would you recomend for raceing with a stadium truck ?

[KILLdaBOOSTER]

Thanks again.. I really enjoy the new nitro ultra....

[jordodj]

do you setup the same way for a off road nitro engine?

[KILLdaBOOSTER]

i used 10% nitro to breake in my motor, is that okay...

[nitrorcx]

@KILLdaBOOSTER can go as low as 10% and as high as 30%

[KILLdaBOOSTER]

ThanX... NitroRCX...

[KILLdaBOOSTER]

what is the recommend fuel?

[nitrorcx]

@KILLdaBOOSTER 20% nitro mix

[nitrorcx]

@KILLdaBOOSTER Hey KILLdaBOOSTER, check out your local hobby store and ask for 20% nitro. That is what we use for all of our engines.

[feyenoordlegioen1]

i have also the same

[williebon]

holy crap! thank you so much Chinese dude...... your tuning helped me so much! i used to have a buggy and never got it tuned correctly and i bought an orange buggy on Sunday and got it on Tuesday and i know how to tune it. thank you. i am totaly buying more cars from nitrorcx

[nitrorcx]

[halakinini76]

[lilboone9866]

[EndoCloudz]

hey i got the savage 4.6 big block and i wanted to know what temps i should be running it at. Thanks

[sonic2000ish]

what kid of gas is that can i buy some online

[nitrorcx]

@sonic2000ish Unfortunately, our online cataloque does not supply fuel/gas to our customers due to hazardous reasons during delivery. However, you can find the 20% nitro gas that you need for your engine at local hobby stores near you. =)

[DylanRoach]

Nice Tutorial mate, Helpful, Thanks

[sonic2000ish]

hey i have that same car it never started help me

[nitrorcx]

@sonic2000ish please give our tech support a call, we will be glad to assist you with this issue

[sonic2000ish]

@nitrorcx thats ok dad said getting new one

[flightboom12]

@sonic2000ish would you recommend them or not

[rcbuggyracingya]

2,5 is good for this engine, not less that 2, thays to lean!

[blakhawk636]

dat thx looks fast as h*l

[headshot8000]

is 15% nitro fuel ok to use in a .28 motor

[nitrorcx]

@headshot8000 15% is fine, although they do recommend 20% mixture, and you could go as high as 30%

[rcbuggyracingya]

@headshot8000 yes

[warranqe]

@MTBbikes plugging the exhaust or blocking the exhaust is fine if you are using it again shorty. for storage over a few days. its not recommended .

[sgtimafilipino]

i miss my rc's effin school is eatin up all my money

[son8god8damn]

why dont people ever tell others to get a fail safe! so they wont run away

[warranqe]

@son8god8damn u dont need a fail safe. just get a throttle return spring.

[son8god8damn]

@warranqe yeah lets say you are driven your car 60mph+ all that is gonna do is not give gas it will still roll that fast and crash.. i like the fail safe it will apply the breaks and stop it... ohhhh owned you

[warranqe]

@son8god8damn if you haved everything set-up properly(diff oil etc) it will forceable stop the r.c vehicle. within a certain range. you'd be surprised on how fast a rc car slows down when gas isnt given

[JOHNDEEBANK]

Thnx friend, I really enjoyed this.

[nitrorcx]

@JOHNDEEBANK Glad you enjoyed the video, Johndeebank. Feel free to suggest what other videos you would like to see and check out the new one we just released today!

[Al3xdacarlover21]

hi great vid!! i just wanted to know, what happens if you dont have the copper washer on the glow plug?

[warranqe]

@Al3xdacarlover21 air leak.

[Al3xdacarlover21]

@warranqe thanks. everything seems okay though. what happens with an air leak?
