Dirtdemon, Pico .27 is in now. We shall see how this one goes. They promise the one way bearing problem Pico has had is fixed. Cross my fingers I dont want to have to buy a 2nd Novarossi.. But I will if I have too. Its a shame the Mach still runs good But I just dont trust it.

Good luck with the Picco DAZ i have heard nothing but good things about those motors. Im guessing your going to have more power than you need but theres nothing wrong with that. Maybe you can show those SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH motors what power is all about!

I Can tell you one thing NOW.... I will never buy anything but a Novarossi. 
IT fired right up and ran and ran and ran and idles and idles and idles like a motor should. I ran it the first time last night for almost an hour, broke it in and never had to change a plug.... Im sold.. And the carb adjustments are sweet they work unlike the POS machs..

Novarossi
DAZ,
COOL you got the NR. The issue I ran into with the NR is that I was surprised to find out that I could turn the idle screw too far. Instead of increasing the idle I locked up the barrel. Crap! Anyway, what needle settings are you using? I got mine out of wack and have been struggling since. RB Mods recommended 5 out on top and 1 in from flush on bottom. They said it would be rich. So far, I've had my best luck with 1 3/4 in from flush on the bottom. Also, are you using the NR plug? and if not then what?
So tell me you got the XSP. I don't want to have to hock something to upgrade to the XRP to keep up. And are you using the pull start?

Poor Daz can't even post here anymore....What is with LOSI...well I have got some new news in from off the hot press ...... was biting my tongue to try to be diplomatic, but as of now, this post is very true!! But I'd add the TNX, MGT & even the Savage 25 & Mammoth to the "best" list (but I'd re-name it "better" ). Hell, the GS SUT & new Hot Bodies truck & other "truggies" hafta be considered too for anyone looking for big & fast trucks!!
The LST has a LOT of problems...Losi is being nice & attentive, but the bottom line is that the LST is flawed and there are no fixes for the "biggies" that have hit the street (axles/diffs). And apparantly the "hopups" are kinda lame, too, at least the upgraded diff cases!!
The Revo's launch has been FLAWLESS. Somebody said the arms are the weakest he's ever seen? Not ONE breakage has been reported....NOT ONE!!! Driveshafts? They're amazing...they'll easily handle big-blocks as they are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN THE T-MAXX'S!! BTW, all the Traxxas griping in this thread has to do with the Maxx, I guess that's because there isn't anything to gripe about with the Revo. Traxxas customer service is AMAZING...quick phone support, knowledgeable techies, what else do you want?
I had VERY high hopes for the LST...look at any of my pre-launch posts. It probably WILL end up being a great truck, Losi IS "good people" & it's design, std. feature set & overall execution are GREAT. But buying it now, KNOWING that many key components are crap...PLANNING to live with things failing & figuring Losi will help you out is completely asinine!!
Either WAIT a month or two (hard to do if you're not in the sunbelt & wanna have some fun before winter!!), or pick another truck. I don't care if it's a Revo..it's a great truck, but admittedly very different than the LST/Mammoth/MGT group. But jesus, griping because you can't find a defective truck is mind boggling, especially as the reason you can't find it is undoubtably because Losi is right in the middle of FIXING IT, and it's very costly for them to deal with returns/part replacements & they'd rather you wait as well!!

Well Dean LST is killing my friends cpu and won't let them run in the MAIN here or post on the site this is nuts whats going on here ???

never heard of the revo having problems,you need to slow done and actually listen to the sh$t coming out of your mouth before you speak
for the record,brent we have run2 heats together one i put you 2 count them 2 laps down with one gear,you won the last heat we ran by half a lap.
i can give props when deserved,but you crawled into your shell when you were put 2 laps down.i dont remember racing you with my other lst oh yeah...now its coming back,lets see pull start problems,roto-start problems every NEW vehicle has the same break in bugs i expect them its no big deal
btw- when the revos started showing up at the track they were the ones not making the main
you need to be in the game a little longer before talking so much sh#t
and nick called he said your parts for your mbx5 are here
the one you havent even driven yet and already lost parts for if you had been in this hobby a little longer you would know that the savage has the same problems your talking about with the lst,the difference between team losi and hpi?...losi IS fixing the problem hpi stuck their head in the sand and instead came out with a "new"version ask nick or someone else that has been around awhile.
it helps when your talking sh@t that you actually know what your talking about when you do it

that is too much motor for our track if we had another 50-75 feet it would be perfect

Steven, welcome back. heard you were down and out with a bug. I though you were talking about the Mach when you told me 3+3. That is a huge difference from the EB mods recommendation. From the factory it was 4 1/4 on top. Ok, I'll give a shot. When you say three on bottom is that backing off from closed or turned in from flush with the collar. I also found that if I tighten the collar too much I can't turn the low speed needle. Are you noticing the same? Frigging tight as hell.
Maybe you can get me into the CVRCC site? I've tried three alias' and have not received the email confirm.
As for Balls short term memory loss.. pay it no mind. I would like to see the Brothers Revo in the pro class tho...

if you close it all the way yes it will stick and dont try to open it when closed you could damage something.
i know cary is having some issues it was a trial version they were using and when he went to upload the full one it said there was an error give it alittle time it will come around.
trust me i not worried about ball bagg's memory except for the part when he was lapped twice
