A suggested radio layout is provided in this manual. Your high performance R/C center should be consulted regarding specifics on
radio/electrical equipment. However, we recommend using a steering servo with a minimum of 50 oz-in of torque.
When in question, use the hardware identification guide in each step. For screws, the prefix number designates the screw size and number of
threads per inch (i.e., 4-40 is #4 screw with 40 threads per inch of length). The fraction following designates the length of the threads for cap
head screws, and the overall length for flathead screws. Bearings and bushings are referenced by the inside diameter x outside diameter. Shafts
and pins are diameter x length. Washers are described by inside diameter or the screw size that will pass through the inside diameter. E-clips are
sized by the shaft diameter that they are attached to.
The fuel used to power the this truck is a special blend of methanol, oils, and nitromethane. This fuel is highly flammable and should be treated
with extreme caution. Be sure to read any warnings and cautions that appear on the packaging of the fuel. Because exhaust fumes are produced
from running fuel powered models, this truck should not be operated indoors. Be careful when handling your truck while the motor is running.
Avoid pointing the exhaust outlet towards your face. The exhaust fumes can cause irritation and burning of the eyes.
There are a number of different brands of model fuels available. We have found that fuels specially blended for R/C car use like Blue Thunder,
Orion, and Trinity perform better than common model airplane or helicopter fuels. Model airplane fuels usually do not have the proper type or
amount of oil needed for the extreme demands of R/C car racing.
You will need some sort of a fuel bottle in order to fill the tank with fuel. Your local hobby shop should have fuel bottles and any other
accessories needed available.
This kit is designed for non-pull start engines. You will need to have some sort of an electric starter in order to start the engine. There are several
hand-held electric starters available on the market. There are also a few manufacturers that produce starter boxes. A starter box is easier to use,
but is usually more expensive. When attempting to start the engine in your XXX-NT truck with an electric starter, make certain that the engine
is being turned the correct direction (counter-clockwise). Turning the engine over the wrong direction will cause the engine to not start or
possibly run backwards.
You will also need a glow plug igniter in order to start the engine in your XXX-NT truck. There is a wide variety of glow plug igniters available.
Check with your local hobby shop.
