Have coming in two days and this was very helpful. Being in RC nitro for about 10 years and it never gets old 👍

I ordered this same buggy. Supposed to be here tomorrow. First nitro. Can’t wait!

Love your videos, been in the hobby since 1986(yes I’m old) but enjoy seeing you keep our hobby alive and bringing it to the next generation. Thumbs up from across the pond (Long Island New York)

Nice video man keep it going .I also have an inferno mp7.5 with a gxr 28 on it and it has been a really pain as i have blown it up two times until now😥 and i have almost never achieved a good tune because of some leaks i suppose .But i will fix it again and follow some of your instructions too as i have learned many things and i cant wait to watch the tuning video of this kyosho

I haven't actually done a tuning video of this one as I've done loads of tuning vids before, it's all the same process :) Have fun !

What I used to use was 3 tanks of dead rich, full throttle run where the buggy could only roll at 5-10mph, at best due to dead rich. Lots of lube gets through the engine, kept cool. The 4th tank is spent getting it to 80% of tune. 5th tank, 1st half is getting it tuned, then the 2nd half is fun time.

I miss rc. Their sound is so great

Hello, Love your videos and have been following them for break-in and tuning! You have been very helpful. I'm also new into nitro and I just bought this model. I followed everything exactly as you have done with it, however, when I give it half throttle, it only moves a little bit. I tried adjusting the high-speed needle to lean it out slightly and the engine cut out. I have not adjusted the needles otherwise since it is a new model. any suggestions here as I go to tanks 5 and 6 Thanks!

I couldn't really compare this with the Hyper SS Truggy as they're different platforms, Buggies are more agile and quicker than truggies. Truggies have bigger wheels & larger ground clearance so you can go a bit further off road with them. The Kyosho is a great car, it just needs a steel spur gear. I had to upgrade mine straight away as the plastic one stripped :) I think you get more for your money with Hobao.

Hi Jojo, it sounds like it's running rich. Fouling plugs and spitting fuel are both normal during break in, but if you're getting through plugs like that you might need to lean it out a bit. Probably on the HSN.

Are the car parks always empty when Bournemouth fc playing yesterday 🤣, just joking. Anyway I like would you to mention every car specs like its ... clutch bell/spur/gear sizes etc, because I think its good to know . Last thing can try to swap different size clutchbell overs to see it advantages.

Hi i’m quite new here. On average how long does a nitro engine last if your using every weekend? Ive read some where it can last around 8 gallons or less. Is this true?

@TheRCBiker

4 жыл бұрын

Difficult to say but if you look after them they'll last years!! In terms of fuel amount it's pretty hard to say. 8 gallons is about 35 litres which is about 7 bottles of Nitro. That is quite a lot of fuel for such a small engine! But it will take you surprisingly a long time to work through 8 gallons!

What nitro would you recommend inferno neo 3.0 or inferno mp9 tki4? One is 349.99 USD (neo) other is 474.99 USD (mp9).

Good man!

Just 1 tank at iddle seems too short to me..I always run at least 5 tanks at idle (allowing to cool down between tanks), then start slow driving for another 3-5 tanks, before progressively leaning the engine and running it faster. All in, probably 15 tanks before I go full throttle. I know it's probably OTT but never had an engine blowing up in 16 years and the engines last very long

@TheRCBiker

4 жыл бұрын

In my honest opinion it is very OTT but of course is up to you :) We all achieve the same result in the end. These ABC type engines actually need very little break in, hence why some manufacturers (traxxas included) have you driving the car on the first tank!

@dimi911

@@TheRCBiker well coming from an engineering background, most companies nowadays tell the customer what they want to hear, hence running in tends to disappear as a process, even on new cars. Agree, manufacturing technology has progressed etc but at the end of the day, engines, machines in general are still not made of cryptonite. Personally, I tend to take extra care and over-service stuff. The only trouble I've ever had with nitro engines is with ones I've bought second hand. To me, the running in period is the most important part that will ultimately determine how easy the engine will be to start in the future and how long it will last. But I accept everyone is different

If you haven't touched the Low speed and the engine is running OK then do not touch it... The factory settings are only "safe" settings, they rarely are the best settings for the engine. HSN not sure on defaults but flush it to edges and do 1 turn in, and then just tune for performance

Break in is a complete myth, same with cars and bikes, in actual fact you’ll achieve better compression and a higher performing engine as a result if you just put the engine under load, if you idle an engine you polish the bores and this is not the best surface for compression, the rings need to seat in the bores and this only happens under high load, when the cylinder pressures rise the rings expand and seat causing them to wear and seat to the bore to provide good compression, this won’t happen once they are polished and tempered from excessive idle, I would only ever idle for 5 mins to warm the engine, then give it some stick!!
