I've been thinking of upgrading to 2.4 ghz mostly to avoid frequency conflicts.Anyone have any recommendations? Traxxas has a good deal on their 2.4. You trade in your old transmitter and they will give you a new 2.4 for about $65.00.I have looked on ebay but the ones that are not too expensive are from companies Ihave never heard of.

RE: -Official Traxxas JATO Thread-
Hey I'm new to nitro got my Jato 2.5 a couple days ago. It run great once I get it started. Today I attempted to start it about 50 times(pull start) before it even began to start. And when it starts it stalls almost right away. And once its started and runs for a couple minutes it starts right back up on the first pull. Yesterday it was high 90's (temperature in the air) today it was 70's. What can i do to make it run, or start on the first or second pull
Thanks
Thanks

Man less than a tank? Hmmm give me some time and I will try to take pics of my tranny so you can make sure everything is installed correctly.

Engine Help
Im having issues with my engine (not on my Jato but I like you guys so figured i'd post here) and am out of ideas. The engine loses power and bogs down at WOT. Lately I have been able to get 1 high speed pass but when I turn around and try to open it up again it loses power at mid and top end and gets really boggy.
I thought maybe my carb was dirty, so I took the whole thing apart, cleaned, and let it sit in a tub of seafoam for 2 days and reassembled. I also thought I may have had an air leak, so I tore the motor down and applied automotive gasket sealer to all gaskets and connections. Neither of these have helped.
Engine has less than a gallon through it and I always run rich and use wd40 after run, so I have a hard time believeing my piston/sleeve are worn. Compression seems good when pull starting.
I have tried to run it with both 20 and 33% fuel and neither makes a difference. Tuning does not seem to help as the issue occurrs when I lean or richen the high speed needle. Low end power is good and I get 2-3 seconds of rev up using the pinch test. I have beed running nitro engines for years so I generally know how to tune an engine.
Im totally out of ideas. What am I missing?
Thanks!
