Finally got my truck running and WOW this thing is COOOL! But boy is it a lot of trouble. I 'm new to rc so I bought the rtr. shock ends stripped, pipe mount & screw missing, all camber links different lengths, servo saver way too tight, and on the starter box motor, the wiring connection was broke out of the box. But after i called horizon, they are sending me those parts. Overall happy with customer support, no ?'s asked just sending me new parts.
But this whole carburator thing is killing me!! the operations manual says that the starting point for the losi 454 H/S and L/S needles is 2 1/2 turns out. but when i set the low speed at that setting and start it, it wants to rev way up. so i fatten I up due to not very much smoke. i'm sure its just new guy frustration
but I haven't been to my local track to talk to anyone yet. Any of you guys race @ pleasant hill, MO?
Any thoughts? thanks Dave
Ps to make this post longer, I was on my fourth tank of fuel last night and my truck just stopped and Idled till it died. I think I smoked My throttle servo
I am still reading this thread and know that this is an known issue but come on, i dropped almost a grand and haven't even jumped it yet.
Do I call Horizon or bit the bullet and buy a different one?
