Status: offline 		Ok, I've broken in my Avalanche which wasn't that hard once I figured out the tuning. I'm actually having more trouble with the transmitter. I downloaded the manual but it reads like a bad translation. How do I get it in reverse? I'm new to these rc cars. I have the lcd fm, and I set it up to match the 'ordinary settings' in the manual. From what I understand you just push, instead of pull the trigger, but all it does is apply brake. Is there another setting I need to adjust or is there a switch I must engage before it will go into reverse? I've seen some with a toggle to maneuver it into reverse.

Status: offline 		No reverse, well I'll just have to try not to steer myself into trouble.

I had another thought about the fuel tank and wanted to get some opinions. Swapping for a larger tank might be difficult but what about adding a second tank? There's room in the front if it's mounted sideways. I'm not sure how the engine and carb would respond though with the added volume. Y-fittings could be placed on each line to run the tanks in parallel. This should pull fuel from both at the same time. I haven't timed my run times but during break in I was getting under ten minutes.
