Default HOT motors.

Hey Guys I got a few Hot motors in my collection and I dont know what to do with them. Ive come to the point that collecting these motors is pointless!! Should I just put them in the forsale section or what. I dont think that some people will have a clue what they are buying??

Any help would be great!!

Thanks rob!!

Seems to me your options are list them in the RCU marketplace or a big auction site. Just list them as exactly what they are and the intended purpose, and attach a fair price to them. Caveat emptor - buyer beware. You control the minimum in all cases.

But of course tell us what they are first.. Then we can PM you and dicker.

The three I have are
OS 25 VF ABC, Rear exhaust, with pipe and short header.
COX Conquest 15, Rear exhaust and I have the COX muffler. Its the RC version.
Rossi 90 long stroke. Rear exhaust and i have a 3 inch header and some goofy pipe for it. When I say its goofy trust me its something Ive never seen before.

I will try to get some pics up later.

The cox conquest still generates interest, especially if you have a muffler. I wouldn't list it for anything under $100, and if its new, you could probably get $150.

I still have one of the original Conquests, started out r/c but quickly became a control line combat motor... Brings back memories but compared to the new Russian motors it's nothing...

I'm thinking a donation to your favorite Revver Brother would be a great way to keep the spirit alive [8D]
