Keep one important thing in mind. ProtoSound (PS1) engines are frequently finicky to master. They require precise sequencing of throttle motions to get them to roll, and are picky about transformers.
Most frequently newbies put them on the track, and haphazardly power up the throttle expecting them to move immediately. When they don't we frequently get a subsequent post here along the lines of "All I get is two 'clanks' from the sound system. It won't move. I think it's toast"
Nothing could be further from the truth but you'll need to be patient and learn the ropes.
Rule No. 1:. Check the battery inside before doing anything else. If it's white change it immediately. Put in a green one instead, although there are other options too.
