Default RC10GT Clutch gone bad?

Hey guys. I recently got a used RC10GT. IT WONT START!!!!!! Also, when i try to start it on the starter box, thewheels just spin freely without me hitting the throttle. Someone on here told me my clutch was bad. I really dontwant to replace it if I have to. So how can I tell for sure? Please Reply! I wanna drive them this weekend!!!

Take the clutch bell off, the spring around the clutch shoes most likely broke. Bend a hook back on the end of the spring and put back in place around the shoes. Free fix...........

The RC10GT normally didnt come with a clutch with the spring around it, but it could be aftermarket

Who exactly is the guy? I didnt say it was bad, I said it could be bad, and you might want to check it. They have aftermarket products for almost every part on all models. Either way I dont think that has anything to do with why it isnt starting. If you have replaced the glow plug it has to be a problem with the carburator. Nitro RC's require alot of maintanance sometimes. They arent near as easy to deal with as electric. Without actually messing with it myself I can only give you some good direction to look into
