Exited to find this forum and hello to all. I, of course, have a silly noob question. I got a Volcano S30 a few days ago and love it. When I start the car, I have to leave the glow plug igniter in for about 10 seconds or the car will instantly die after I pull it. It did not do this during the break in but after the first real run and cool down it now does this. I though maybe the plug so I changed it but still happens. It is cold so I am writing it off to cold weather but I thought I would check and make sure I was not having an underlying problem. The needles seem fine. Idles great once it warms up and sounds like it should when I open it up. Other than that the only problem I have had was the servo. It went out on the second tank while I was doing 1/4 throtle 8's. It was easy enough to replace with $12 unit from the hobby shop and Redcat should be sending a stand by replacement. Kind of a bummer but I have been running it hard since and all is well.
