Default engine problem

hi,

i have kyosho GXR .15 engine. i was driving this afternoon. it was ok for first 2 tanks. then i let it cool the engine. then i start driving. i drove full speed and when it change to 2nd speed, engine start stalls and if i continue with full speed, engine dies. if i let it go when the engine stalls, then engine wont die.

does anybody know whats wrong?

thanks in advance.

hmmmmm my first thought would be carb settings......i remember i had the same issues with my car, and i believe it was the high speed needle valve......try to richen it up a lil bit...casue from what u were saying u might be running to lean on the top end and then the engine just dies.....my 2 cents
