getting the Gen/ in a couple days, my first Cen product, is it true that you have to idle 7 tanks, or do you guy's do it different, just want to make sure also how do you guy's rate the huge truck.

I did the whole idle thing for about 4 tanks and then ran a little just not at full throttle for two after that.. It was on the Nemesis but should work fine. Friend of mine did only two and not has problems getting it to idle, not sure if it is from a short break in.
Hope this helps

Get the highest mAh receiver pack you can. It will make a big difference.
as far as break in, just let it idle for 5 tanks and drive around slowly for 2 tanks, and you are good to go

Like Jombo posted. Look there. Also instead of idleing you can do the heat cycle method which in the end proves to be better then the CEN break in. http://www.johnnycoolguy.com/JCGR/ma..._break-in.html
