My throttle servo glitched and i was holding my truck down at full speed i've got everything working right now but when i give brakes the brakes activate but nothing happens like something in the gear box isn't stoppingir something wat should i do becuase right now to stop i jump into leaves or coast for awhile so i can use my foot to stop it

Either try the throttle trim or adjust the discs.. Otherwise I don't know. Sometimes the electronics aren't good. Check tower for a basic Futaba radio and two servos. Should only be$40.00-50.00 bucks..

Also, the linkage as well...

i just put a new servo in there and the brakes were working fine before the truck being held down at full throttle when i press the brakes the brakes engage fully but it doesn't even try to stop the car seems like where its connected to the gears that rod snapped or something around there broke

On the end of the linkage, is there a plastic twist screw, try tightening that. Otherwise, do the throttle trim and maybe the allen screws around the discs... I have a few BB's and they are great..

all of that is adjusted good the truck doesn't have a problem running just braking and never had this problem before i think when i was holdng it down it snapped something around the brake so the brakes won't do crap do you guys have any other ideas if not i will have to strip it to find the problem and i'm not to good at that becuase last time a stripped a truck it was taken apart for around a month

Take a top-shot and post it. That way they'll see the problem. My brakes were weak on another car and it was the linkage and bending. Did you try the allen bolts around the disc... In other words, start from the wheels in and see what would inhibit the brakes...

i'll take a shot for you i'll post it in a couple minutes but my linkage isn't bent or anything its all adjusted right but won't brake!

Check the grub screw that is below the actual lever that is connected to the trannyon the top. paosible its out too much..

Pull on the brake rod with the car on the ground and see if it stops it from rolling.......if it doesn't chances are the cam plug came out from in front of the lever.......if it does stop you have the adjustment wrong[&o]

Well I guess thats the technical way to put it lol.

nothing is adjsted wrong i checked it just doesn't work camera batterys are dead can't get a picture tonight

Does the brake lever stop the car??????

Maybe the batteries in the car are dead...

nope the batteries aren't dead the steering is strong and the throttle is strong just not the braking. Even if i pushed the two brake pads against the disc it doesn'help to stop the car i think ther is something moe toit then adjustments and battories

Well, I'm baffled. I dunno...

i guess i will take everything apart this weekend to find the pproblem i think i might know actually as i think about it i'll check tommorow

Any luck??

well you were right it was th grub srew but it keeps coming out it happend like 3 times and each time i only ran the truck like 5min or less i'm about to make it 2wheel drive and electric but if you have an idea to keep the grub srew in i think i will keep it nitro for the winter

i had the same problem ...... there is a small cylinder behind the brake pads at the bottom of the braking rod... makesure it diddnt fall out

my brakes work now when my grub srew doesn't losen up

thats good to hear ..... do you have any problems with the cluch bell or transmission.....mines running very rough and has a huge clutch problem

i dont wany to b a pest but i got 1 more Q:
is it ok to start the engin and get it into 2nd gear with the car off the ground

don't over rev your engine becuase that will ruin the engine


does anyone know how i can keep my grub screw in it keeps coming lose its annoying every 5min i have to take my truck apart to tighten it up

put loctite or ca glue if you talking about the shifter, once you get it to shift at the right point, put a drop of ca glue on the grub screw that makes it shift, this will be pretty permanent so make sure you have it set good
