Hello, I am new to the RC world and I ended up buying a used Team Losi XXX-nt RTR off of ebay for $160. It is in good shape and hasnt been ran in a year. I got it running, but tends to stall quite a bit. Probably some fine tuning will help. The gas that I am using is a couple of years old 20% nitro, with the original glo plug. Could this be a factor in not running consistent? When it runs it hauls, or at least I think it does. Also when turning and on the power it turns wide. Is there anyway to set up the suspension to help turning while under acceleration? One more question. I was told by the previous owner to snap the fuel tank cover to prime the engine. When I prime the engine I lose a lot of fuel through the exaust when trying to pullstart the engine, is this normal? If anybody gets a chance please let me know your thoughts on this truck.

Thanks
Here are some setups for the XXX-NT http://www.teamlosi.com/setups/triplex-NT/index.htm
Get new fuel and a new glow plug for sure. Did you remember to charge the receiver pack/put in new batts? That could be why the steering suck.
those don't turn good under power from my experiences no matter how you set it up. I had the same truck previously.

Fuel goes bad after a few months generally so you are using bad fuel right now.

Welcome to the forums!
hey guys thanks for the info. I checked out the setup sheets....really indepth stuff. I appreciate your responses.
Team Losi xxx-nt are very good trucks! I have had one for a while and love it. You will not be dissapointed in your puchase! As for your questions, your truck will never turn good under power. Because of the 2 wheel drive the front end torques under power and you lose most steering. Hence why it is a hard class to run, that and the fact that it will spin out on you if you don't have very good throttle control. Enjoy the truck!
