FAQ

What is a nitro RC truck?

A nitro RC truck is a radio-controlled vehicle powered by a small internal combustion glow engine. It uses specialised nitro model fuel rather than a rechargeable drive battery as its main source of propulsion.

What is the difference between a nitro and electric RC truck?

A nitro RC truck uses a fuel-powered engine, while an electric RC truck uses an electric motor and battery. Nitro models require engine tuning, fuel and ongoing mechanical maintenance, whereas electric models generally have simpler day-to-day operation.

What does 1:10 scale mean for a nitro RC truck?

A 1:10 scale model is approximately one-tenth the size of the corresponding full-size vehicle. Actual dimensions vary depending on the model and vehicle design.

What does a .18 or .21 nitro engine mean?

These numbers refer to the approximate engine displacement in cubic inches. The engine size is one factor affecting the model's performance and operating characteristics. Always refer to the manufacturer's specifications for the exact engine details.

Do nitro RC trucks need special fuel?

Yes. Nitro RC vehicles require the type and fuel blend specified by the engine manufacturer. Always follow the recommended fuel and operating instructions.

Are nitro RC trucks ready to run?

Some models are supplied as ready-to-run vehicles, while others may require additional assembly or equipment. Check the individual product listing to confirm what is included.

What maintenance does a nitro RC truck require?

Maintenance can include cleaning the vehicle, checking fasteners, inspecting the air filter, maintaining the engine and checking the glow plug and fuel system. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule.
