RE: the most noob question of all....
Big difference is they don't tell you in the manual not to do 20 foot jumps either. They do however warn against stupid things such as stopping a flywheel with your finger. And besides a 20 foot jump won't harm you unless your jumping it into yourself and the person asking the question is a newbie not good advice to give to someone new is to jam their finger into the flywheel, pinching the fuel line isn't going to ruin your engine I do it all the time and have yet to ruin an engine from it and sorry but I earn my living fabricating composites and sheet metal for f-16 aircraft and isn't no way I'm losing my job cause I lost a finger from jamming it into a flywheel cause I couldn't spend time to read the manual. I own a Savage/Revo/T-Maxx/Jato/Evader/Xcell and 3 different 1/6th scale gasers and none of the nitro manuals mention sticking a finger into the flywheel matter a fact all the traxxas ones are equiped with a fuel line pinch and the savage routes the fuel line behind the rear bulkhead for easy shut down by pinching it.
