Default stubborn engine

my new rb12 turbo is being very difficult to turn over. i've tried heating the engine with a hairdryer, and setting the flywheel so the starterbox can get maximum throw before the engine pinches, but the box still had such difficulty turning over the engine, so much so thjat i've only been able to put one tank through it to break it in. i really do need to get this engine broken in. any help or hints would be GREATLY appreciated. i'm using a duratrax starter box with two 550 motors and two racers edge 3000mah stick panks. i tried charging the packs. thanks in advance.
