I finally snagged a video of my STS 30 doing its thing! Stand up and walk away...

Or standing tall and coming right at you.... then walk on by.... it was fun and it always runs great,I just wish parts were easier to get. BB

we do stock most all parts, and we order from STS weekly so if it is a part we don't have you may have to wait 7-10 days. Check out

now this is cute. the owner himself trying to sell some parts when he won't return any email from me about getting the regular head botton for my motor that was suppose to come with the motor but didn't. then when i send him my first email he say's he'll send it right away. guess what, never did. now he don't return any emails about this. now i know it's not that much for one, but why buy one when it's suppose to come with the motor.
SO I WOULD HAVE TO SAY NOT TO BUY FROM THIS GUY, NITROCOUNTRYRC, GO WITH THE OTHER STORE MENTIONED ABOVE.
THANX FOR NOTHING

Had a messy weekend race meet, was having various flameouts with the .28. tried a Novarossi ,edium plug, but that weas no better than the Proglow plugs then another guy game me a O.S. R5 plug to try for the final race and it ran fine (1 flameout, probbaly caused by overheating). Just wondering if these plugs are worth buying? They are a bit on the pricey side but they seem to last and the truggy was hammering along with it.

For one thing I'm not the owner, and I'm not sure what you are talking about. I've never seen an email from you or anyone requesting a head button. You can P.M. me with your info and I can look into it and get a head button to you. I know we didn't have any .21 head buttons in for a while as STS didn't have any to ship, but they are now in stock. So it shouldn't be a problem!

Thanks.........nitrocountryrc

Only if you want to run a short plug in and engine that is made for a standard long plug. Sounds like to my you either have a air leak or bad tune.

I didn't think plug length made any difference?
All my motors I noticed zero difference in performace with the plug size.

Run what you want but I like to run the proper length plug. I have seen a few times problems with running a short plug in engines designed for long plugs. I still think your problem is either an air leak or not tuned properly.

I run either McCoy or Novarossi hot plugs on 30% Byron and get at least 1 ½ gallons out of them.
