u do realise u ave to break in a nitro engine first? and u do no how to adjust the needles? And set the radio end points? All of this stuff has to be checked when u get a new RC, from the sound of it your new to RC. Come into the who owns a Monster gt thread and we will help you with all you MTA4 questions

heres the thread

http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4050020/tm.htm

lots of helpfull guys, u have to take your time with nitro if its your first, u have to read the manual thoroughly cause it will help u learn the basics of a nitro motor and what everything does.

My first nitro was kinda the same, i didnt know what i was doin, but i read the manual a couple of times and went to work on my new nitro rc, broke it in by the manual and it all went good, till i rammed it head on into a concrete wall lol, fixed it(taught me alot about it) Nitro motors are easy once u get the hang of them, the stock motor is a good learner motor as it keeps a good tune (if tuned correctly) and idles good.
