RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

Hi guys, just wondering, any one here competes with your NTC3+ or NTC3? What type of tires do you use, foam or rubber? Have you won any prize?
Here in my town there's a RTR category, so I plan to run with my tc3+ soon, maybe I'll beat some duratrax's GP2 easily hehehe

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

We run foams on our track at Hobbytown (parking lot)
Jacos with jack the gripper tire compond checkout the setup sheets they have at www.teamassociated.com

and does any one here know the specifications of the .15x engine that comes in the NTC3+? Is it better than the one that cames in the GP2?

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

I really don't now bro.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

whats up this trhead dead?

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

No I don't think so people just are not having any problems with there wonderful nitro tc3's so they have no need to post any questions. lol

Unlike the smartech thread.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

i finish it took me 9 hours it was my first kit it was fun!!! now i have to pick a engine and servos!!

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

anyone having steering problems with the tc3? mine move left and right each time i hit the gas. i think it maybe hitting something if so does anyone here now how to fix it.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MY REVO AND SAVAGE AND IT WAS BAD SERVOS!!

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

mmm... i would agree with you but i checked me servo and its working find and even when the car is off and i move the rear wheels the front moves left and right so it has to be hitting something.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

cool its still alive i just went my local track and am planing to practice there but is going to be weird everybody runs kyoshos rr or rrr i didnt see one ntc3 there. i have my ntc3 stock but with novarossi 12s engine will try to make it a factory team slowly. what do guys think about the tc4 prototype that ASSOC TEAM is testing the tc4 belt drive. where can i see online where they will race in california so that i can attend some races is there a pilot locator.?

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

The new electric prototype that is belt drive is electric and called the tc5 and there is one picture of it on rc caraction. Also if youlook somewhere in the caraction book you can see all the tracks in cali.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

thanks for the track locator. the tc4 wich i like to called is not a tc5 yet thats what rc call it we need to wait what AE says. anyone has xperience on belt drive can you comment on this tc4 belt driven. by the way they mention the b.d tc4 in last month issue.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

Hey i have a question, I have a TC3+ basicly stock with the carbon upgrade. I was playing with it in the parking lot, and whenever I would hit second gear, the car would just spin out. I also found out what you guys were talking about with the crapy stock tires, My rear tires are shreaded. Any help would be great. This is my first RC car beside a walmart one. TIA

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

if your rear tires are shreaded that maybe the problem!

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

It was spining out with brand new tires too??

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

It might be out of tweak. Meaning the tires are not push the same weight on the road surface. So when you turn the car the rear torque is more on one side than the other. causing spin outs.

find some one with a tweak station and it should help

i just got today the ntc3 tunning guide cdrom will check it out tonight i was told by lhs thats this is discontinued

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

the tuning guid is discontinued ....... hmmm sounds weird seeing as you can still download it of AE 's website for like 5 bucks i recommend it to anyone wanting to get serious it has tons of usefull info in it... but yeh i think your LHS is yanking your chain a little to make a buck ........

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

no the tunning guide that ae has in their web site is still active am talking about the cd rom one i paid 20 dollars and its cool it teaches you how to set up your car. i have 2 questions why is it that my car spins the rear in some of the turns it happens when i run faster or turns what should i take a look on? broke my rear tower i think that is a weak point for the car any tips on making it stronger durable.?

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

I have a NTC3 that does not shift. I bought the car used, but I have completely rebuilt and cleaned the car from the ground up. (I have been racing gas and electric cars for 20 years.) I have adjusted the transmission clutch shoes exactly to AE's instructions and I have backed the screws out as much as 4 turns to no avail. I am using a freshly "blueprinted", ported, and polished OS .12tr. Any suggestions?

Thanks

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
 

welcome to the ntc3 post. well did u set the 2 other screws correctly the ones that pushes a ball. are ur 2 gears mesh ok last time my 2nd gear wasnt engaging check that. make sure ur engine has been broken in. and it is a transmision that can barely feel or hear shifting.

RE: Offical nitro tc3 thread
