jato 3.3
 
hi, i just broke in my jato today and i love it,i only had 1 problem, and that was the piston got stuck at the top, but the manual said this happens alot during break-in.Right now im on my 7th tank of fuel, is it normal to not be able to weelie yet? it might just be im running a little rich, but thats because im going to fine-tune tommorow, plz help
thank you for your posts

Yes its normal that you cant wheelie yet. Factory is set very rich. Once you get it tuned right it will wheelie all day long. Just be careful because if your doing 25-30mph, let off throttle than jam it wide open it will flip right over. If you really want to have fun with it get some 2.2 size wheels and some new tires. The stock tires are not good off road and they wear real quick on road.

I like to show the potential that the Jato has and to show its just not a road racer. When I say they should get new tires they can see waht Im talking about.

flying jato,

You should get rid of the rear aluminum shock tower if you dont want to replace tranny cases although you have the wing mount so I guess it wont break.

RE: jato 3.3
 
yes its the new era....I made a big mistake with them shock towers and piggyback shocks....I also had aluminum a-arms and some more...Actually the shock tower never caused me to brake the tranny case...Only the wing did But now i keep it a little loose and it has some play and won't break
