Hi everyone, a bit new to nitro. I have a HPI Trophy, it has been running sweet for a litre of 20% fuel. It stopped one day after a roll over(2nd tank of new brand of 20% fuel) and was then hard to start, needed throttle and wouldn't idle. Return line(from exhaust to tank) had been chewed up). I fixed this and it still won't idle. Will run with throttle up a bit. Haven't changed the tune, what should I try first?
Hi everyone, I've been driving my HPI Trophy since Christmas with everything running great. Starts within a few pulls, runs till the tanks empty etc. I bought a different brand of fuel 2 tanks ago and noticed very little difference, maybe a little more smoke, but not excessive. Had a roll over and the car wouldn't start. After a bit of sweating it started but only with the throttle on. No good, so after a closer inspection, saw that the line from the exhaust to the tank was chewed up. I fixed this and now it starts with the trim on but stops when braking.... I didn't want to change the tune, as it was working fine. Is there other parts to check first?
