In this video tutorial basically I am following all the basic rules that apply to Nitro Engine tuning. I have previously posted a couple of videos on this topic. In this video you will see the approach in a very practical way using the ACME Attacker 1/8 scale nitro powered 4WD off road buggy that is equipped with SH18 engine. Buggy will be available at http://www.rctoyhouse.com and http://wwwhobby-estore.com Remember when buying and checking out at hobby-estore, use my name Ali in the discount coupon box and enjoy instant 5% discount off anything you buy.

  • im thinking of buying a nitro buggy do u have any good starting out sugestions on what 1 to go for with good amount of speed and get for a cheapish price

  • HULK fuel

  • how many do you have

  • @MrDirtyhabbits no way! i feel the exact same way dude! i have a Traxxas rustler vxl and I used to have a nitro. but I don't like just being able to just pop it in and go! i want to spend an hour just trying to tune to get it work. Weird we think the exact same way and i have relatives in Belgium

  • I have the same screwdriver

  • Thanks for the video Ali.

  • hey im new to nitros. and everytime i start my nitro the wheels spin on there own. i gont know what to do!!!! i turn the idel to the left and it doent do any good. i have the nitro on RICH. and i just dont want to have the breakes on all the time. HELPPPPPPPP

  • @DONSHORTY420 Sounds like your clutch spring is broken.... Remove engine and then remove your clutch bell to check for a broken spring.... Had this problem on my Tornado s30...its an easy cheap fix though

  • i bought a acme attacker and have had nothing but problems with it. when it idles tires keep spinning and will not stop regardless of hsn or rpm needle and when i hit the breaks it wants to shut down. WHY? no matter what i do the car will not respond correctly. im 31 years old and have ran nitro cars before and have never had those type of problems. e hobbies or rc toy house will not help. i feel like i got ripped off and because of this i will never buy from those companys again.
