Well being its starting to get nice outside I decided to bring out my hpi rush. This truggy always gives me problems getting it to idle properly. When idle is set up no matter what the truck still rolls foward. I have the breaks tighten down enough to stop the roll but that takes away from the acceleration and wears the brake down faster. Not sure what's the problem is here.

I have the brake setting on the controller all the way up and the acceleration is at 50%.

If I hold the break down the truck lowers idle then cuts off. Also the same if I don't press the throttle for a few minutes.

I'm going to try bringing up the idle and lowering the brake drag. Hopefully this is the problem

Well that was a waste. Not sure what happened but the truggy lost control and toke off down the street. Luckily it hit a car tire and got stuck but the motor kept running burnt up the gear and blew out. So the motor has no compression. Looks like I will be getting a new truggy sooner then I thought.

Most likely was radio interference cause when I stand near power and phone lines I lose signal on my iPhone. I'm upgrading to 2.4 ghz so won't have to worry about any interference.

Sounds like the clutch was too tight. my jato used to have that problem.
