I decided I want to sell my MGT so I can get a plane. If anyone wants to buy my MGT, maybe you Marty?? I didn't show it ot you yesterday but it is pretty sick, big joes, new LRP spec .28Z with drill start that is just broken in, brand new Losi pipe and header, tons of RPM parts including wing. If anyone is ineterested in buying it OR has a RTR plane electric or nitro that is a good beginner plane but not cheap and cheasy let me know. Here ard some pics of my MGT before the engine swap. I will even throw in the old AE .21 engine, there was nothing wrong with it, I just wanted a bigger engine. PM me or email me at rexrw@aol.com I am in Phoenix, AZ. PM or email me an offer or what you have to trade. I am not looking to make money on this, just want to get enough $$ for a RTR plane or trade for a RTR plane.

Can someone give me the measurements for the fuel lines of a Monsoon. I have one on the way, and am getting steel braided fuel line for it, but I need to know what lengths they are. I need from tank to motor, and tank to tailpipe. Thanks

No it is neither. The set screw diff is ONLY for removing the pin that holds the drive up to the diff case. You slide the pin out to remove the cup. That is all. To remove the diff cover (spur gear) you only remove the 4 screws that hold it down and that is it and pull it apart.

Smokeout....

Ive read that racers dont like FULL aluminum Clutch set ups (on Truggys) because they are too grabby and tires spin too much commin out of the corners on power. ( On account of most Truggys bein so overpowered).
I've seen pictures of clutch set ups where they use 2 aluminum shoes a 1 Teflon. Or 2 Teflon and 1 aluminum.

Supposedly, it offers better traction , due to SOME clutch slippage.

Just what I've read......
