Well I will post about how it runs when I get it. If I don't like it my friend said he would buy it off me for the same price.

anyone know if the dogbones from a t3 would fit into the outdrives on a tc3? i am building a custom sandrail and wanted to use t3 cvd axles with a tc3 diff and wanted to make sure they would fit before buying the diff. thanks!

I just got done breaking in my ntc3 this thing is soo fast.I have a quick question how long should it take before the transmission starts to shift

fastest_ntc3

My car didn't shift until the 7th or 8th tank. I had to loosen the screws because it wouldn't shift on factory settings.

What is the spit test for an rc car? (ntc3)

fastest_ntc3

The spit test is a test to show the temperature of the engine. Spit or drop some water on the engine head. If sizzles away as soon as the spit touches the engine, then engine is too hot. If the spit takes a few seconds to sizzle and evaporate, then it is ok.

i think my ntc is running to cool so that means i should lean it out

Ya it does. Does anyone know where to get a metal diff, and pinion gear for the ntc3?

I ve been looking at the os 18crv engine is this a good engine to get. Also how well does it hold a tune

Hey guys...can I use this starter box with the ntc3 plus? http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...3&I=LXHUC9&P=K

I've got a Duratrax Warhead, I know this starter box works with it, and I'd like to have one that works with both.

many thanks,
ash

That should work. Speaking of starter boxes, for some reason I can't get my box to turn my engine. The starter box is new, fully charged, and I lined it up with the car. It easily turns my old NTC3 but it can't turn my new NTC3. It stalls every time it touches the flywheel. Any suggestions?

i have that starter box and i works great with my Mugen .12 Hi performance engine no problems and for you fastest nt3 are you sure the car is lined up with the starter box.
Mine wasn't at first and it wouldn't start.

The o.s cvr is a really really nice engine i have one and i can baisically keep up with a factory ntc3 with a tz but i have a ton of upgrades on my ntc3.
Get it it is reliable and strong had my for a year not sure of the gallons through it and i can go 65 with no tuning and a crap body. the high speed needle is around four turns out.

Thanks alot ofr the reply. My local hobby shop has a os 18 cvr for 109.00 is that to high to pay for one.

that starter box works great with it i have the same box but i suggest getting it ith the sealed lead acid battery i have actually put a glow plug attachement panel on the end of mine and now i can use a glo ignitor with it so i dont have to wory if my glo stick is charged i know that if my box is spinning my glo plug stick is working its awesome !!!!!

Igotntc3andrevo

109 is the norm thats the price at the hobby shop that i work.

osofast

would you recommend pul start or starter box for the os 18cvr. I havent never used a starter box before are they hard to work or pretty easily to use

natone

My associated starter box http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXCLZ9&P=ML works perfect with my ntc3
my cars starts in a second [sm=bananahead.gif]

I need help i was driving my ntc3 today when the brake throttle servo quit working. But when i turn the car off and back on it started to work again what can it be Iam going to check all the plug ins tonight.

natone

it might be the battery isn't charged
mine did that and i turned if of then on and it worked for a little while then stopped[sm=RAINFRO.gif]

jandb917

yeh i agreee it is proablly the battery are you using a Fail Safe? if not i would recommend getting one you can get them with a voltage protector so when the voltage drops to a certain level it will shut the servo off usally at a preset postion that you set most set it just for a little bit of brake to stop the car when that happens but it is definatlly a good investment ......... mine has saved my car countless times !!!!!

natone

I NEED ONE OF THOSE. I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AT FULL THROTTLE AND IT CUT OFF SENDING MY CAR INTO THE WOODS. good thing nothing was hurt.[sm=RAINFRO.gif]

I ran my Ntc3, that I won on ebay, today. With the Novarossi engine it is really fast.

osofast

I check all my plugs everything is fine.I'm going to switch over to a hump pack to see if this will help me out.I'm in the process of installing a o.s.18cvr. From what i hear this engine rips cant wait until I'm done.Should i ungrade to a different pipe or leave the stock one in it.
