I'm impressed!
I've run this Redcat Racing Volcano SV many times and never had the battery go dead for the electronics. Today, it did. I had no idea that when the battery goes dead that the servo for the carb will pull the brake on and it won't start up. Why it won't start, I have no idea. I charged that battery up and put it back in and now it starts. Got dark and had to run the Losi and ODonnell also plus the 3 electric cars. Had my nights fun.

RE: I'm impressed!
it closed the carb, that's why it wouldn't start, your air gap in the carb at full brake is too small or the engines not actually tuned properly. it should run at idle for at least 45 seconds with full brake on.
