i just got my savage, and i finished breaking it in, but one thing that is holding back the performance is that the carb only opens up about 3/4 the way. I got it to open up all teh way but then the carb won't close back down to idle without me tapping forward(braking) to set it back all the way so it can idle. This is my first slide carb i have ever had, or seen in person for that matter. The servo has the range thats for sure, but the throttle arm stops while the brake arm keeps on going forward, i think it has something to do with the thing on the servo, I'm sorry i forgot the name, haven't done too much R/C in a while. But that "thing" is too forgiving, to say it simpler, if i had a regular servo arm on the servo, everything would be fixed, in terms of full throttle range, i know it would negate any breaking. The range of motion is there, but that "thing" is too forgiving and only pushes the brake arm foward after 3/4 throttle, and leaves the throttle arm at 3/4.
Now that i have explained it 100 ways, all extremely confusing, hopefully someone can help me. Oh, and also, i did screw that plastic piece onto the metal rod that connects to the slide carb, but that barely helped. Thank you for any advice you can offer up. And try to keep the insults on my spelling and total lack of knowledge, to a minimum
