Default Its been a while

After hurting my self dirtbiking i thought i would pull the Savage out for a run today. Forgot how much fun these things are. I may get a new engine as the one in it is just some ebay $80 crap with a lrp head, so recmondations would be nice, its a 086 pipe so a engine that would work good with that would be great.



Short little video but it didnt work too well holding my phone

Dont know how much you are looking to spend but the lrp 28 or lrp 30 are very nice engines. Not to bad on price either.

Driving an electric R/C is about as interesting as watching grass grow in the desert. Get a Clockwork Picco 28, it will work well with your 086.

As I just mentioned in my thread I got a Picco X28 which is a P3 with low profile heat sink and turbo head.
Cheaper than the P3 too.
Awesome engine with bags of power.
