Default RedCat Torando BB

My torando shuts off motor when I apply the brakes. The throttle wire pulls back on the carburator and closes it. How can I fix this?

I have. To the point where it runs about 10 mph without even touching the throttle. It still will shut off.

I have. The throttle lever on the carb. pulls back when i apply the brake and shuts off the air flow. If I move the lever on the servo then it will not go.

There should be a seperate needle adjustment on your carb just for the idle. Are you trying to adjust the Idle with the Radio gear?
