RE: Noob problems - any advice?
When I first got my MT2 I had the same problems. Someone suggested this to me and it works. Close the carb all the way...fill it up with fuel (with the air filter off) and then open it up with the radio to let the fuel flow into the carb. Then put the throttle to 1/4-1/3 and try starting it. That initial burst of fuel kind of exploded the engine on for me...
Im not a pro or anything...only been into nitro for a few months, but it worked for me.
