Hey Bro

[Invisibleman]

[dirty_canadian4894]

does anything happen when you pull the throttle? the carb could be letting to much gas through

[Invisibleman]

no when i pull the throttle nothing happens but i can still turn it

[Yogster]

servo's are little black boxes usally with a white disc and a rod attach to them exactly the same you use for your steering but there will be another one just for the throttle.

[Invisibleman]

ok i found it and have taken it out how do i check to see if its broken or not?

[Yogster]

Still keep it hooked up and try and pull on your pistol grip trigger with out it hooked up to the engine it should rotate back and fourth.To make sure it's not a battery problem and freqency problem with your controler communicating with your car try and turn the steering if the steering does work I would almost have to say you will have to replace the throttle servo or you might be lucky ans check the wires leading to it one might have broke.

Good Luck .

Make sure the throtle servo is plugged into the receiver?

[Invisibleman]

sell the gas car and start with an electric, learn what your doing before you jump into gas stuff.

If the servo arm is stripped, it won't allow the throttle to open. That's one of the things wrong with my T-Maxx, when I got it (still haven't been able to run it though ).
