I would go with either the Wasp .26, the OFNA/Picco .28 (both are made by Picco), or the O.S. .30. If you plan on racing don't get the .30 since it does not meet the rules for most organizations. Picco makes some great motors, probably my favorite manufacturer. The Wasp .28 and Peak .28 are nearly identicle engines made by Toki that are ok engines and I have only had bad luck with Force engines. If you are going to be racing I would look into the Wasp Pro .28 (also a Picco) but you will need a starter box which is a neccessity when racing.

where can you get replacement parts for the Picco engines?? i was going to get a Picco for my T-Maxx but my local hobby shop guy said i shouldn't becuase replacement parts are hard to find for those engines. All Tower Hobbies had for replacement parts were the pull starters. Where can you get a piston and sleeve?
