Ok I ran my 8t today and when I hit a jump and get airborn it sounds like the engine leans out? Anyone know what the cause might be? Weird it doesn't do it all the time but only when I jump.

usually it's the high or low speed needle is set too lean.

Sounds like a lean LSN to me.

This happen to me my first outing with my 8T on tha track..everytime i hit tha jump this really high lean noise...it ended up bein my LSN like said from other and wat u also think. could be something else..but on mine it WAS the LSN. Just my $.02 for a gr8 guy as well!

I had the same issue, not specific to the 8T but when I'd go off jumps the truck would rev higher, it's definitely the LSN being too lean.

Mine did that only on jumps ended up being my carb wasnt closing all the way when I let of the throttle. Was not making it back to the idle position. So I had to reset my throttle linkage and has not done it since. Just something else to check if its not the lean setting

and the first thing he should check before messing with the needles.

How high are you jumping, the air thins out as you go up and thus a different mixture, it is why your always detune your airplane motor as it will lean off in the air!!!
