    Click the fcuking link.......fool:p:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,070 ✭✭✭muckwarrior


    I did. My point was that people around here seem more interested in talking about off topic shíte than anything to do with RC.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug


    Ah right are you a lidl shopper yourself?

    Nice reading..
    Well
    I am after putting 12 tanks through my 3.3 at this stage
    Running on 20% Blue Thunder now with a few drops of 3 in 1 oil mixed in as well ( just to be on the safe side)

    Well I tried leaning out the HSN and it was having none of it.
    Put it back where it was which is about 4 1/4 turns out and it ran fine. Leaned the LSN about 1/16 of a turn and it was fine for a couple of passes but suddenly when it reached about 1/2 tank it seems to burst into life..
    Did my run up the rugby pitch on 3/4 throttle
    turned round and came back down at about same throttle... Turned and hit the go stick .... :eek:
    Revo stood straight up and stayed there until i let the throttle go.. I got such as land I didnt keep it there for long.. after theat it stood up on demand..:D

    Brought it in and shut it off for a couple of minutes...filled the tank and it wasnt as liverly again,( wasnt slow either)
    Until the tank level went near 1/2 way mark again... This time I was ready..:cool:

    Stood it up and released the throttle to between 1/4 and 1/3 pulled and kept it rubbing the rear wing for the full lenght of the Rugby pitch... My son thought he was seeing things..:D
    Must get a vid of that the next night.. was quite amusing..

    I would advise anyone to get a 3.3 engine... woohoo...!!
    I am well pleased..:D

    my son reckoned that the Maxx would still beat it in a drag race so i left him off a little at the start by not squeezing the throttle fully... about 1/2 way up the pitch I hit Full on throttle and caught him in a matter of seconds.. he braked in front of me and I couldnt avoid him.... Smacked into the back of his maxx and broke a driveshaft.. :(
    Ah well..
    Ebay time ..!! :D
