i hav a nitro tc3 and i wanna put in a novarossi ns12 s5 in it. i heard the rs was a really hard enigne to tune i was just wondering if its the same with the ns. i think its cuz the carb has an extra needle.

The third needle is mid-range. Some people try to run race engines to play with, and complain about tuning problems. Yes, race engines are a little picky about their settings, but they are for all out racing, not for playing in the streets.

My os .12 tr p te(spec) engine has the midrange needle and it should only be touched if you really no what you are doing. I like it now that I am used to it and it really makes the midrange transition smoother. When I first got it I disassembled it for prebreakin inspection and quickly realized I had no idea how to reset the midrange. Luckily the manual (in japanese) mentioned the factory setting and I was ok.
