    Idle problem

    Hi, I am having trouble with my used rampage xt I just bought. When I start it up it idles at wot. The person I got it from had a lipo battery in it. Would that have made the stock servo go bad?

    Zenoah installation tip

    My new Rampage XR came with a defective RedCat engine, and, in the end, I bought a new ZENOAH G290RC engine.
