Default RE: redcat volcano s30 need help

Hey thunder5005, here is a link to the fuel I use and the prices here include shipping to your front door, you can buy it by the gallon or by the case which is 4 gallons, the case is the best deal if you can spend that much and need that much....dont waste your money on all the $15 - $20 +shippingper quart stuff out there it isnt any better......get you some of this Maxy's fuel, learn the tuning of your Nitro's through patience and consistency with all thegood help you have gotten here so far and then just get out and have some fun.
I am new also to these Nitro engines but I have years of experience with 2 strokes and justabout every 4 stroke enginedesign that is common, this is my advantage on the tuning part but I havelearned loads of good things from the fellas here who have been tinkering with these RCvehicles for a while and Ihave more to learn as Igo.


As for the Volcano Isay just get out and run the dog out of it when you get it going, parts are cheap and easy to get and I'll bet you will have loads of fun with it as well, it all depends on how rough a person is on something, the people who are out jumping their trucks 6 feet in the air are gonne bust things up pretty quick but just running around a track with some small humps and bumps wont mess things up real bad or quick for even the cheaper ones from what I see, for the priceI think the Redcats are the best bang for the buck and a good way for anyone to get started in the RC Hobby without spending a small fortune, it's better to spend $185 and decide you dont like the RC Nitro thing than it is to spend $600 and figure out it not for you.
