Stupid Newbie Question

[wolfdogstinkus]

I just noticed that the savage has an optional reverse, I was looking at this truck but it doesn't say if it has reverse or not?

Its a truck with odd tyres, that i can tell you.(fronts different to rears/bet they say its for performance )

Do they revers, that is such a basic question. . .

but a good one, ive no idea, and thinking about it , if they do. . . how!!!

is there a third channel for a gear box or what!!!!

Now i need to know?

Hi, I would say that has not got reverse,it would say if it had,I have two nitro trucks with reverse[t maxx & giga crusher] both have gearboxes controlled by a servo.

Unless it has a gearbox a nitro car will not run in reverse. Nitro engines will never be able to run backwards, it would mess up the whole cycle of an engine I am guessing ?

I think thats right, please correct me if I am wrong.

You can start a nitro engine backwards but it will run poorly (I've never managed though) and I imagine that just going over and turning the car away from the obstacle is easier that to go over to the car, kill it and then start it again in reverse...

It controlled with a 3rd chan trough a gearbox...

Unless it's an old, old Kyosho truck (QRC?), then it's instead of the break
