RC10GT RTR Question??????????????

[OmegaTrac]

Hey,
Well I have set the idle speed so when it is sitting on the ground it doesnt move while idleing. But when I lift it off the ground, the wheels start to spin. Should it do this?


Also, when I completely go flat out it gets real high in the RPM's should I do this? and how long can I hold it at max RPM's?

Yes the tire will spin when you lift it off the ground....Even though it sits still on the ground the clutch shoes are still slightly engaged.....thats why the tires will turn when you lift it.

My GT RTR Screams....I don't run at full throttle for more then a few seconds....if you let it run at max rpm's for much longer it could break the con rod and/or seize the engine.

the reason you can go at high speeds is because the RPMs are increasing, I think what you mean is pitch, and that will happen, I've raced my GT at full speed (with the AE .15) for about 30 seconds with no problem.

Whats the life expectancy of a AE .15?

It all depends on how well you maintain and break it in. Since its ABC you can expect atleast 7 gallons if properly broken it and maintained.
