Starting a pull start RC Car is a relatively easy task, and is a great way to get into the hobby of radio control (RC) cars. Pull start RC cars are powered by nitro engines that require starting with a pull-start string. This engine type is more powerful than electric motors, and for this reason, it’s popular among experienced RC car enthusiasts.
Before attempting to start your pull-start RC car, make sure you have all the necessary safety equipment on hand. This includes safety glasses, ear plugs or muffs, and gloves. In addition to this, it’s important that you check your fuel tank and make sure it has enough fuel for the engine to run correctly.
Now that you have all your safety equipment in place and your fuel tank topped off, it’s time to start your pull-start RC car. Begin by positioning the car on a flat surface such as a driveway or parking lot – avoid grass or other uneven surfaces as this can cause problems when starting the engine.
Step 1: Locate the pull starter located at the back of the engine near the exhaust pipe. Pull out about 4 inches of cord and then hold onto both ends firmly with each hand – make sure not to let go until instructed otherwise or you risk injury from the cord snapping back when released.
Step 2: Pull firmly on both cords until you feel resistance from the engine – this may take several attempts before resistance is felt so don’t give up too early! Once resistance is felt, release both cords immediately and allow them to retract back into the starter housing without forcing them in as this may damage the starter mechanism.
Step 3: Once you feel resistance from the engine and have released both cords, turn on your transmitter if needed and prepare for starting up your car. Flip up any switches required to turn on any onboard electronics such as lights or sounds if needed.
Step 4: With everything ready for ignition, locate your throttle trigger on your transmitter and slowly increase throttle until you hear a popping sound from your exhaust pipe – this indicates that engine has started successfully! Once started, allow engine to warm up for several minutes before attempting any manoeuvres or driving.
Conclusion:
Starting a pull-start RC car requires some steps in order to ensure safety and proper operation of the vehicle. Following these steps will ensure that you are able to successfully start up your pull-start RC car with ease!
