Default Hello All

Hello all. New to the forum, and to Redcat R/C.

My son got a Volcano for xmas. Have run 2 tanks through it so far, and this thing is going to rip.

Went over the car before firing it up, set the mesh, and gave everything a once over.


Can't wait to run another couple of tanks through it and get it all tuned up.

Welcome to the forum. Sounds like you have been doing your home work. Yea it is a good idea to do those things before running. A few more tanks and you will be ready to get it tuned and start ripping Have fun and good luck with the new truck.

Sunday update

disaster struck ealier today. my son was running tank#4, and i was in the garage putting on warmer stuff. went outside and he said something was wrong.
looked overa few things, and the truck took off on me. ended upside down in the creek!!! jumped in the water andgrabbed a hold of it.

took it in the garage, pulled the plug, andput some after run oil through it.

we just ran another tank through it. had to do some surgury. the throttle linkage needed to be adjusted, and changed the glow plug.

goit running again just fine.

i don't knowif the recieverbatteries went dead or what.


has been and exciting day.
