    Should I just go to factory setting on the needles to tune my savage tomorrow?

    hey guys I'll be tuning my savage later on today and was wondering if I should just make the needles flush with the carb body and begin tuning from there. Think it couldn't hurt

    Nitro fuel tank alternatives

    Does anyone know of any good fuel tank alternatives to the stock 160cc one? I'm sick of this half lean tank problem causing issues, so I'm thinking a new tank is the way to go to end this problem for good. I know I could use a traxxas one with the bottom fuel feeder but it's kinda small (at...

    I took the XL out for a serious bashing yesterday. When done, I went to rotate the flywheel to my marked BDC but it would not move. I pulled the glow plug, rotated fine, put it back, will not rotate. I recently put in an MC59, which is a bit longer than the plug I took out. Is this the...
