Default GS Storm RTR Engine break in * Need Help *

Hello All,
I just bought GS Storm RTR. I tried to break in the engine.
When I first fired it up, all the wheels just went at full throttle even though i did not touch the trigger. I had to use break in order to maintain it running at idle. As long as, i released the brake, all the wheels run at full throttle again.
Pls! help.....

Thanks in advance.

ok...
1. take your air filter off and check the carb...if you can see a pretty wide gap when u are idleing it, adjust the throttle stop screw until you can barely see the gap. OR
2. adjust the throttle servo and brake linkage so that the throttle is COMPLETELY closed when the servo is at its "home" position....if your car won't stay running after that, slowly increase the throttle trim

good luck

A little advice, before you even think about starting your engine always do a radio check. More than likely the trim settings on your transmitter are not set correctly, or the linkage on your throttle servo is not set up right. There should be like a 1 or 2mm gap in the barrel of the carb at idle so if there is more than that reset the idle screw or set the linkage from the throttle servo.
