Default The car was stuck

Hello there! I just bought my new RC car with gas engine. I did everything what said in instruction, but after 5 minutes of driving the vehicle was stuck. Engine still running, nothing was happened with it, but when pushing the throttle, car is not moving. How i can fix it? diagnose it? I think there is a problem in gear box

Gas? As in gas for "real" cars? Or nitro fuel? Anyway, check the clutch, something tells me that it might not engage. When you roll the car, do you see anything move close to the clutch? Also check that the hexes on the wheels are attached so the axles don't spin inside them and not gripping.

In my car's instruction put the gas 91 and blend it with 2 stroke oil. 1/25. For me this is a gas car, maybe I am wrong. Tried to move it. It is stuck. I can see parts are moving a bit, just couple mm, till gearbox. but in general it is stuck

Yep, that's a gasser alright, not nitro. Interesting.

Can you turn the wheels by hand? Do they move freely? Does the motor seem to rev ok, tho the car doesn't move? If it seems to rev ok but the car doesn't move, then I'd say it's the clutch.
