Default new sts .28 help

hi, i bought my savage of ebay and it was my first nitro. ive just bought a sts .28for the savage and i need some help. i dont know anything about new nitro engines so how do i start it? the compression seems extremly hard and it is extremly hard to pull the pull start cord. i just ordered a roto start backplate for my sts. is compression always hard on new engines?

hi yes new engine have loads of compression, undo the glow plug a little and this will help you pull the pullstart when its started tighten the glow plug back up also if you warm the head of the engine with a hair dryer this helps 2
