RE: Traxxas break in
do the traxxas break-in but one thing they don't tell you that you should do after each tank is put the piston at BDC to do this take out the glow plug and push the piston to the bottom of its stroke w/ a q tip or something of this matter. then mark the flywheel when it is at BDC(bottom dead center) if you do this after every run your engine will last longer and it will do this becuase the sleeve is shaped like this / \ and when the piston is at the bottom after the engine cools it is able to cool down back to its original form instead of the form of the piston allowing better compression
