Just checked out the link you included, basically if I yank my carb off my HPI engine the tuning issue is resolved just like you did. Seems to me IMO that for a modded engine this would have been taken care of. But Thanks a bunch this was the kind of info I was looking for.
Seems people who...
The OS 30vg I had was great when I first got it, once it was set I barely had to adjust the HSN a ¼ turn. And that was depending on the weather. Now would the Axial be faster or as fast as the OS 30vg? I have seen “crashes†vid on his Axial and I was very impressed with the quickness. And...
Ok I am going to be ordering a new engine, so to get me thru the next race, at least points wise, I yanked my HPI 4.1 off of my buggy. The problem is that when I go to tighten the carb down, the screw is in tight, yet the carb moves! What can I do, RTV the crap out of it? Did I strip the screw...
Well I think I have decided to do the STS D30M. Well at least 97.5% I think that green head on the Axial .28 is just too cool. And yeah I think I need to get a hold of Mark. I was checking EBay and they run about the same price, but I really don’t want to be waiting for an engine for 14 to 21...
I picked up this tuned pipe off of a Warhead, and it made a big different on the OS 30, on the Mach 28 before i stripped the one way. and it sounded incredible when i fired up my 4.1
I did think about keeping it, but I have a lot of parts in a box that I said I would get back to. So I decided to just get rid of it and start fresh with a New engine. The STS looks pretty good, cant swing the RBmod one at this time. There is a Revo with a modded OS .18 that is real fast. I did...
The piston and sleeve need to be replaced, have found some fuel in the front so seems to be the front bearing is shot. I sold it for 100 bucks so either the Axial or STS is practically free. The engine was awesome as fast as H3ll! it kept tearing up rotostarts and one-ways. Had the Engine for 6...
First resurrected my HPI 4.1, Should I stick with the OS #8 plugs? I live in Florida and it does get hot.
Second I got rid of my OS 30vg, started becoming a money pit. I have been looking at the threads and seems like there is a lot of intrest with the Axial .28 and the STS .30. which is the...
Ok I have been running an OS 30vgp, which has incredible power. It has been a pain to tune lately so seems like it is due for a piston and sleeve. I am just wondering if paying about $50 for a new piston and sleeve, or $120 for an STS .30 which was suggested. Which has more power? I bought the...
WOW!!!! I have been digging thru the Forum, and "Jt" has some awesome mods. Can not wait to start the tear down and the rebuild. Have the New Cen 220cc tank, waiting for the New shock towers and the wheel extenders. If they work very well i might raise the chassis to 1in to an 1 1/2in, right now...
My OS 30 was second hand and incredible fast. what do you mean "if properly broken in". Something diffent from what would be included in the instructions? I have seen guys hook a drill to the engine and pour marvel mystery oil tru it. Have seen the old heat gun. And the old fill her up with fuel...
REVO's :Xjeep: When i first started racing there where like all sorts of different trucks and several Savages. Now everyone is trading there Savages in for the REVO's, because they handle better and are faster. Well that is what i want to disprove. My OS 30vgp smokes them, (yet i might be in the...
