Monster MT -XTM- wont change gears
i just recently got a monster MT XTM truck,
[ul][*] Factory-Built with 3-Channel FM Radio System [*] XTM .28 Rear Exhaust Engine [*] Polished Tuned Pipe System [*] Dual High-Torque Metal-Geared Steering Servos [*] Steel 2-Speed Transmission [*] Bevel-Gear Differentials Front and Rear [*] Huge 290cc Fuel Tank [*] 5mm Bracing Front and Rear [*]7” Massive Tires with Foam Inserts [*] Large 4.5” Chrome Wheels with 17mm Hex [*] 8 Threaded Aluminum, Oil-Filled Shocks [*] Front Universal Joints [*] Steel Hex Screws Throughout [*] Large Front and Rear Chrome Bumpers
[/ul]
iv used a 1 gallon 20% bigbang fuel already on it so i know its run in properly, but i still cant hear it change gears, i never herd it change when i first got it but i just thought since it was new it wouldnt yet, but now its making me think that the shifting thing has broken, im new to nitro cars with gears so i dont know much about them, any help would be great and appreciated

RE: Monster MT -XTM- wont change gears
Look through the manual. It should tell you how to adjust the two speed tranny. One most if not all trannies, turning the screw in will make it shift later and turning it out will make it shift sooner. Factory set should be all the way in and three turns out. Good luck man, let me know what you come up with. Joe
