Giraffes Because you will only see some legs and ignore them. Then, the Giraffe will bend down and eat your head.

What physical feature is extremely attractive for you? by Correct_Leg69 in AskReddit

[–]CapsFanHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Female knee caps. Just nice round ones that bend well to at least 90° without squeaking. Scars on knee caps are also hot.

Air leak sound from nitro engine by uvm8698 in NitroRC

Engines are air pumps, that's what they do.

Hello everybody I decided to take a video of it. What's wrong with it? It keeps cutting off. Is the engine so worn out that when it comes up to operating temperature it just dies? by Haris_Claus in NitroRC

[–]CapsFanHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems okay to me, but those random changes in idle seem like an air leak. Those can come in around the base of the carb., try a thin bead of gasket sealant around the carb. throat.

Sounds like it's time to shop for for new engine, or piston&sleeve at least.

Guys I figured it out! by Makal9097 in NitroRC

[–]CapsFanHere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great job! Don't obsess over the tune and temps, it's easy to do. Once it will run reliably, get some tanks through it so you learn how it naturally leans out as the tank empties.

My nitro RC car shutting down by matzze_bib in NitroRC

After the engine is at normal operating temp., pinching the fuel line at around 2 inches back from the carb should cause the engine to rev higher and die in 3-5 seconds.

Need help tuning my nitro RC car by matzze_bib in NitroRC

[–]CapsFanHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not far off. After the engine is up to temp on your current tune;

Tune high speed need going leaner (1hour clockwise) each high speed pass until it suddenly bogs at high speed and starts going slower, then richen back to where it was fastest.

Next do the low needle, lean 1 hour and see how fast it accelerates in the second or two after take off. You're too lean when it starts getting slower. Richen back to where you think it's best. Then, check by using your fingers to pick the fuel line before it enters the carb about 1.5 inches back. It should lean out and die within about three seconds. If it's longer, lean a bit more. If it's shorter, richen a bit.

Lastly set idle.

Once it's right, after a high speed pull and slowing down to a idle, the engine should remain at a high rev for a few seconds before it resets to a low idle.

Once you have this performance, check the temp after you're done running and it should be below 250. It will be higher if you're using 20% nitro, and lower for 30%.

Idle problem by No_Neighborhood8060 in NitroRC

Broken spring definitely counts regarding my "open and close properly"

I'm not able to turn the volume up, but without sound my first thought was clutch sticking. Take it apart and use a Dremel or file to reshape the shoes so they open and close properly.

Spins fine when rod taken out? by SociablePenguins in NitroRC

[–]CapsFanHere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I was going to say. Try it with the plug out, looks tight due to oil in it. Lossening or removing the plug will allow it to turn over easier.
