  • It was the receiver, it smoked and i had to turn it off quick, I went to a hobby store and they said that i need a new receiver :( is red cat guna give me another one that works?

  • @dubscrub1 I can not tell you if redcat will give you a new one or one that work because i dont work for them also you need to get one off Ebay.com like i said but just goto Ebay and look up Redcat Servos if you have a warranty then just call redcat and ask them

  • Hey, I just got my s30 tornado, and wen I turned my receiver on it started to smoke for no reason. You know how this happened and is redcat suppose to give me another one? My remote controll did not even have a name brand on it lol.

  • @dubscrub1 You mean the Receiver in the car then no it should have not done this.You could have had a bad Receiver i guess.Are you sure it was not the Servo the ones that move's the wheel's or throttle if that it.It could be that the pot or part of the control board in the servo went bad. It is dead now if this happened.I would say you need a new setup and the Controller is not a Name brand its just a regular controller from redcats unless you put new Hi-Tech or something in it thats what i use

  • @dubscrub1 But i use Futaba as well thats a really good setup but Ebay.com has the best deal's on stuff like this. But unless you bought and do have a Warranty on it from Redcat Racing then you wont be able to get a replacement unless you buy the part but i would go to Ebay and buy different part's like Hi-Tech or Futaba

  • ok thank you so much

  • I am about to receive a s30 tornado buggy online. Is it safe to start the buggy with an electric starter for the first time instead of using the pull start for the break in process?

  • @dubscrub1 Yes it is safe Starting the engine has nothing to really do with break in.So do not worry about that i assume you mean you will be using a Roto Starter with a wond correct or are you using a Jump Box that sets under the RC Car

  • I am going to use a roto starter. My brand is firecat and I am going to use an exceed electric starter. Is it safe to use an exceed starter on a firecat brand?

  • @dubscrub1 Yes its fine that will be no problem good luck

  • ok thanks i will set the needle and stuff know i cant start it cause its pitch black out but i will tomorrow morning! thanks again
