Default os.21 tm not idling properly

Just finished breaking in my OS +21 tm on my revo..its running good taking off mid range and on top... When I stop it idles real well for about 15 seconds then slowly dies..I can hit it with the starter it starts immediately and idles again.same thing over again..any ideas as to what I need to do ?

I thought I would have a lot of different things to try to get my truck idling right .

Nitro engines will idle longer then 15 but your probably a little rich and/or your idle screw needs adjusted (just asumming since you just finished break in)... But as far as idling goes they almost always die if you leave it for a min. They load up with fuel and stall .

I turned idle up a tad so it sounds like its got a little hi idle...after about 15 seconds it will drop back run a few seconds and dir..not making sense cause the idle is really to hi up to the point it dies lol ...about the being rich...lsn or lsn ?
