Start here with this guide: http://www.redcatracing.com/quickstart.pdf

To help with tuning check out this one: http://www.redcatracing.com/tuningyourengine.asp

If after some adjustments following the guides above you still can't keep it running, you could have an air leak and you should check all fuel lines for any possible holes.

I am sure some others will chime in, but make sure you follow the guides I listed since its your first vehicle and make sure you finish the break in before giving it full throttle.

Here are some other great bits of info.

I found this on Youtube. http://youtube.com/watch?v=GQPxiY3F3Wg&feature=PlayList&p=B6904325337C505E&index=0

Start with video 1 on that Youtube users account. They are very helpful.

Status: online 		yeah, you will most likely need to lean the needles a little, try a 1/4 turn at a time and see if it helps you out, also a hotter plug may be good to help on break in, like an os a3, just for break in.
