Wow, that is better than any RC car I've ever owned.
Thunder Tiger RC Car - Mirage Vspec - Glow Plug Issues
I built this Thunder Tiger RC car known as the Mirage Vspec about 22 years ago. I was told it can go over 100km per hour. With remote control and everything, it was over $1000.
But every time I started the engine, it would get too hot and as a result the glow plug that keeps the cylinders firing would melt in seconds. There is a screw in the side of the motor that controls gas or air intake. When I ran into my first issues with the motor I turned that screw. Unfortunately it made the issue worse. Since I had no direction and didn't know what to look for, I tried randomly turning the screw hoping to find a happy spot. But it proved expensive enough to get me to eventually give up on that as a potential solution.
Anyone have any experience with this?
