i am a complete amateur with nitro r/c cars, now having purchased a jato 3.3 i have managed to crash it into a wall a couple of times during the run-in. consequently a front and rear wheel have become mis-aligned. anyone know how i can sort this?

thanks

Blimey how did you manage to crash during the running in procedure???!!!!

Best thing you can do is have a good look over it to see what is bent, if nothing is obvious i would use the turnbuckes to re align things, if something is bent, i would get your wallet out.

When running in i hope you read the procedure and carried it out to the letter, or the 3.3 engine will not be developing the power it should be.

i followed it aswell as an amateur can really, it crashed on the fifth tank and the engine seems to have loosened up really well. i'll mess about with the suspension turnbuckles to see if i can rectify it that way. i need some off-road wheels to help grip on grass now!!!

thanks for the advice
