Status: offline 		hey guys
I have a parkzone T28. I recently wrecked it (kamakazi style into 50 yard line at the local football field) and now ive finished rebuilding it.
So heres my problem. When I apply throttle is jumps to about half speed and then I have no response to the throttle control. I end up having to unplug the battery to shut down the motor. all other controls work.
Can anyone give me some advice on what to start checking or replacing first?
Thanks

Also check to see if where the carb is mounted in the motor that no screws or o-rings are missing or damaged. Also check your servo and make sure its not stripped out. Good Luck
