tip... I noticed that the air hole in the the volcano was at best the size of a pin.. not good.. I took it off the spindle and bounced it. The air hole was not big enough.. You should have some nice reflex from the tire. So what i did what to heat up a straight pin. and enlarge the holes just a tick.. enough to let em breath and compresse. A lot easier.

hi guys,
does anyone know where I can find some screws like these?

To the best of my understanding, the glow plug is light (hot wire) with the little igniter stick, then once the engine starts there is a combination of compression, ignition and a chemical reaction between the fuel and the type of material the glow plug wire is made of that keeps it hot when the engine is running. This is a pretty basic explanation and is again only to the best of my understanding which can at times be lacking.lol B)

Need a little Beta Testing.

We are about to launch this game.

Read the rules so you know the object. Completing a jump is nothing if your score sucks. The game is no live and therefore if you do score 1000 points you will not be entered into any drawing for a free car. We will let you know when its live.


We have had a few RCU guys check it out but this is a later version. Just looking for glitches. We already know about the spelling error for word Congrates at the end and also know about the white type on the game screen that needs to be fixed.

Just looking for more.

Let me know.

PM me please.

Look's like little metric sholder bolts.
They may be available from a good fastener house (fastenall, brafasco)

My son is breaking plastic steady, I found a loctite product that seems to work pretty good. It is a two step process, an activator (primer or cleaner I think) and the glue (pretty much super glue) helps pass the time while waiting for parts.

not for nothing bro but you should be spending time, effort and money on finding out why these cars strip spur gears like they do, i am on my 4th pair in 10 tanks of fuel for the tornado xp and the first on the volcano, or at least post a fix for this problem. I am pretty advanced when it comes to this hobby and own several different cars from many different companies and have never had a problem like this. i am also an adult so i take care of my things and do check the engine tightness, gear mesh and make sure the gears are clean and free of debris. This seems to be a serious problem, if you read the posts i think every tornado xp owner has this problem. granted the gears are cheap but it a large inconvience to wait for these parts. i find myself shying away from my redcat products and using the other name brand products i have more. I have purchased my final pairs of gears, if these pairs strip too, i will just sell my redcat stuff. i understand that breakage happens but a set of gears should last at least a few tanks of fuel. sorry for the criticism but i am very fustrated with your product.

I am heading to China tomorrow and will go over the spur gear issue with them when there.

Dealing with some of the manuf. via email just does not do it.

DiTi

you should put some obstacles there darin... make it more fun

My truck cam with some little spacers of various thickness's seemed to work ok but I am also looking for some newshocks anyways as the stock ones are hard to rebuild (rod seals)

Hello, I just want to know where can I get the Part#02014 for my Volcano STX?? I know they are out of stock all most everywhere I looked.. CAN Someone e-mail me and sell me a spare one or something.. I haven't touched my truch in 8 days and I got it like about 2 weeks ago. I miss it so much.. I will put up the photo of my truck soon when ALL the PARTS I ordered comes in.. It should look great. By the way I LOVE this truck and I have checked out some many places to buy parts from.. Evryone is very very nice. BUT there's one store out there that is a fraud. NorthJerseyHobby.com I ordered simple things as lugs and tired from them on March 24th. And it is April 11th and I still don't have it. I wrote the owner e-mails after e-mails for 2 weeks and got NOTHING back from him. So I finally filed a dipute through PayPal to get my money back. I was very angry.. Watch out people!!

cgoodlet adjust your brake linkage--ie--move it back and forward...it sounds like your brakes are not disengageing.
then try to roll the truck on the ground---while the motor is off.

shady...checkout www.clermontmotorsports.com it is run by chubbysdad on this forum and he is simply the best in my opinion...he has simply the best service and turn around that I have experienced in this hobby trying to get parts for my redcat!

shadymarkny

Awesome man.. I thanks for the tips. I will check them out!

Hey Guys just wondering If anybody else has had troubles with Redcatracing.com. I have tried to order parts and never get them. Even thought they charge me for them. Also everytime I register with them it says they will send my password via e-mail and I never get it. I really just want to know where I can get some alluminum parts besides that sight.

futabaed

They charged you and you didnt get an invoice or mail tracking #? I know redcat uses fed ex and fed ex wont drop a package off without someone to sign for it.

And If you paid without getting parts just cancle payment via your credit card.
just remember it is mail and could take 2 weeks to get to ya max.
I myself have never had a problem with there shipping.

lean it a little and run a cooler plug.
