Default few q's to get my lst running perfect.

just been out with it and the following problems aroused. first i lost front wheel drive. does that just require me to tighten up a grub screw? if so where exactly is it. i think its the one near the throttle servo(underside) and it looks like its backed out quite a lot.

second problem was with the engine. it cuts out quite often especially at wot for more than a few seconds. does that meen the hsn is too lean?

third. the lst uses imperial measurements for it hex's so can someone point out a nice set of hex drives.

thanks alot
ross

definatly tighten the grub (first remove and loctite it and all the other grubs and anything else that is metal to metal). The stalling can be caused by too rich or too lean I would reset back to factory settings and start over just make sure you have a good smoke trail. As for hex drives I like Hudy but losi makes a nice set also just be aware I have run into a couple screw that are metric also.
Good Luck
