I dread to think what could have happened ...
SO, a new lesson today young padwan!
(yoda on ...)
Break something always you will, but knowing what you wont break only the force...
to be honest I'm not even sure that matters at the moment. You should just concentrate on getting the engine broken in with a good few tanks through it.
The throttle and break are intrinsically linked together because you only have one servo to do both jobs. When I broke mine in I experienced...
i was just going to say that ... don't mess with any of the needles yet you still breaking the engine in ... I wrote my break in up on my web site ... you can read it here:

That makes a ****load of sense blazer ... they're only like £15 after all ...
however!! i'm wondering if a rotostart might be a good plan? if I got a roto start for the NS 3.5 .21BB would I be able to move it to another engine in the future? I guess that depends on the engine I go for...
I've just got back from another session today.
Before I went out I swapped the SF2 for the SF1 ... man what a difference, I actually have brakes now!!
I was even getting wheelies out of the .21BB today as well! all good ...
... then just as I was starting it for the last tank of the day ...
hmm ... this is tough!!

Hey Savagecre,
I've been involved in a couple of synthesiser design projects with a couple of big names in the business. Really interesting work. I also run my own recording studio here in the UK. I'm also on the Beta test team for a few companies as well giving them feedback and wotnot on...
Hey All,
This is one crucial part of my truck that I haven't spent anywhere near enough time on so far. Basically I have such crap breaking at the moment that its frankly a bit dangerous now that my truck is getting faster with the breaking in of the engine.
I've tried adjusting the plastic...
I dunno they must be banging out SO MANY engines they don't care ... I dread to think what an engine actually costs HPI to make ... next to **** all I expect. It wouldn't surprise me if they were getting crank cases for pennies a piece (cents a piece) ...
After being involved in other design...
I actually haven't touched my shift point at all so far and after about a gallon through it now i'm regularly seeing 2nd gear ... the speeds man ... scary ... and this is only a 3.5!!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait till i've trashed this engine and bought an upgrade to like a 4.6K or something ... does...
Hey All,
Some of you know that at the start I didn't have much luck with my Savvy. Every time (and I mean every time) I took it out something major went wrong. Stuff like both my diffs collapsing to the carb ejecting itself from the engine to wheels coming off and loosing the pins to my...
