    Nitro thank you for making this video. Very helpful to know to sound of good and bad on both ends. I’m running a 10th scale Traxxas truck but still very helpful for figuring it out as a beginner who had no clue what I was doing a month ago

    Good video I was surprised about low temperature with you running so lean but I thought about it and I didn’t know outside temp! Did you set your idle gap before running? I noticed today my rtr started running lean today in the cold weather today alittle turn was back running really good! This info recently really helped me get in tuned well! I believe I struggle most with low end until watching several different people online like JQ and others! I see this info being really helpful to me as I move forward

    10 years since I rebuilt 3 different nitros for a friend .. I now cannot remember what is right lol... Starts like butter.. very low speed/torque at low range like takes a bit to get going buuuut once it's up to run temps it gets maybe 1/3 throttle hits peak and wants to take off however backed of as it doesn't quite sound right and I really don't wanna blow it haha . On 4th tank been trying to gentle go through the ranges .. but damn If I'm not confused as hell haha... What you said is fine .. but comparison to the sound of yours I can't tell if I'm over doing it or under doing it haha

    Hey bug..I've been dabbling in nitro since I raced rc10gts took 20 years off. Now back in it heavy. I've got a repinched o.s .21vzb v-spec. That I'd love to smash with a sledge hammer.lol low speed needle extremely touchy 1/8 turn and it will flood complete out till fuel coming out of carb. 1/8 lean and it want to run like crazy and get to around 240 fats and shuts down won't start till you flood it again...idk lost I'm thinking the re pinch job was done wrong or maybe a air leak somewhere but I've triple checked everything any thoughts from you would be appreciated?
