Too lean??
I have a traxxas t-maxx and I was wondering if the mixture is rich enough.
When I pin the throtle there is alot of blue smoke that comes out...
When I give it a quarter throtle there isn't really any blue smoke that comes out, it starts coming out when i am at half throtle (that is visible when im not looking really closley).
The LSN is rich because when i do the pinch test it runs longer than what is recommended.
Please help I don't know if it is running to lean on the h-sped needle, or if normally smoke doesn't start coming out till you give it at least half throtle.
PS I have read all of the manuals and all that good stuff......

RE: Too lean??
Thats normal....it actually sounds just about right. You should ALWAYS see blue and white smoke at full throttle and there should be alittle or no smoke at low RPMs. So don't worry, your fine!
