Hmmm, There is an arc over the brake right ? and it has 2 screws at either end ... just set the screws as tight as they go and then undo them evenly until its just a tiny gap between the disc and arc and voila it should work :P

Where is your grit man? Stay away from curbs and damn the brakes M8[>:] If you don't have a manuel it would be best if you downloaded it from the HPI site and they have a really good explanation on how to set up the brakes[&o]

I had a similar problem. In the end i realised that the servo are wasnt turning enough cos the arm to the carb was stopping it, so it took a couple of spacers off the carb arm which gave the servo arm more movement.
