With what? The difference is an engine vs motor but otherwise the rest of the vehicle is pretty much the same. So if you have experience with electric just about everything else will be familiar. Read up on the manual that came with the truck and read the tuning tips found in the Engine subforum.

In the FAQ at the top of the forum it gives some helpful links. There is New to Nitro? Helpful Tuning tips thread.

IF you read over the sticky and go over the section in the owners manual about your carburetor the light bulb over your head should come on.... Biggest thing to understand is how those needles actually work and they are highly dependent on each other.
