Take the air filter off and look inside the carb. As you turn the idle screw does the gap get larger?
And I agree with ehoof, its sounds like the clutch spring is broken. You can bend a new end on it if it is.

i will take some with the body off, its got the os cvrx .18, titanium turnbuckles, aluminum shocks, cvd's and some other stuff, lol

Ehroof do the mt2 wheels work on the tsunami?

KeithjV

Yes they do. I put the geolanders on mine and they work great. Much better then the stock tires and foams.

eminentguitar

the rims too?

KeithjV

Yep. They use standard 12mm hexes.
These are the wheels Im using http://cgi.ebay.com/HPI-Scorch-6-Spo...713.m153.l1262
and these are the tires

KeithjV

The first picture is the stock tires and wheels and the second is the upgrade.

eminentguitar

sweet they are nice do you have any clearance problems?

KeithjV

Not at all. They are the same size as the stock tires just much more durable. And the foam is stiffer so the tires dont bounce as much

eminentguitar

sweet I have the rustler wheels but I was told ther for the electric rustler so the off set is off and I cant use them without wheel extenssions

KeithjV

These are the hpi wheels so Im not sure about the rustler ones. But these work fine, no extra offset needed.

eminentguitar

Well I cant wait untill I wear these ones out so I can get the hpi wheels. The rim is A 2.8 on them?

KeithjV

Hmm, 2.2 I think. Ill have to check the link

Macanan

2.2 rims with the Tsunami arms that are bead locks wont work sad to say, I had to get rid of the ones I have because the arms are to wide

KeithjV

Im running HPI scorch wheels on mine with no problem at all.

I know this was posted a while ago so forgive me if I am asking something which has already been answered.

It seems to me from reading this post that the Tsunami /T. Ultrawide can be upgraded with parts from other manufacturers.

If this is correct, is there a list somewhere which cross matches parts?

KeithjV

Himoto, Redcat, Exceed RC use all the same parts. There are also compatible parts from HPI and Traxxas. Its easier to tell you if there is a specific part you are looking for a compatible replacement for.

nitrosushi

Keith... Thanks... That is good info to know.

Not sure which parts as of yet but when I do I imagine this is the place to come to finds the answers.

The ony part I may have to get outside of Redcat at this time are the front and rear dogbones. I know that Redcat is out of stock and has been for a while.

KeithjV

Anytime Sushi
You can try looking at tri-county or raidentech http://www.raidentech.com
If you run into a problem with a specific part just put a post up. You'll have an answer in no time.
You might be able to use HPI or Traxxas dog bones as long as the length is the same. I havent actually checked mine yet but I will. I have an HPI MT2 as well and a lot of the parts are about the same size.

Macanan

Redcat does have the dogbones in stock that go to the tires, if them are the dogbones your talking about
