will this work on the avalanche ? if not and I get the back plate from redcat will any starter gun work with it?

ehroof

it seems most starter wands will work or a drill with a regual flat head bit, i dont know if that would work but i would suggest getting the sh one from redcat or a dealer so you know it will fit.

You can get the rotostart gun and backplate from RU faster.com for less then that gun alone, only 35.00 for the setup. You need to buy a battery and charger for any rotostart gun I have seen, so they are the same there. I just put one on my Volcano and a backplate on my Tsunami, and I think they are the best thing since sliced bread!! Both of my cars start up almosts instantly and with no effort. Here is a link to the gun on RU faster:

The same link has the battery and charger too!

ok thanks ehroof how about this one from clermont? http://www.clermontmotorsports.com/s...o-start/Detail
I figured out my problem the 3pm the receiver needed to be relinked to the transmitter and its working good took it out today and broke the pullstart so I geuss this is the next step

ehroof

i think thats for the .18 but email him and ask,

my suggestion is to get and use a pull start and if you want to use someting that starts electrically, get a bump box, one thing about rotostarts is that if the battery is dead, your not running. i dont like that. if you engine is tuned it will start in a couple of pulls and if you get the bump/starter box and the battery goes dead, just use the pull start since you can leave it on the engine.

whats a bump box ? do you have a link? I like the sound of that

ehroof

lol, starter box, clermont has them, i dont know if they are on the site but email him if you dont see it.

its a box that the car sits on, you push down and a wheel catches the flywheel on the engine and starts it.

powder coat guy

that sounds good will it work with any car or is it redcat only?

ehroof

any, they make them for 1/10 or 1/8, on and off, generic. drop dennis an email (clermont) and let him know what you want to use it for and let him suggest the box for you, i think ofna makes and all around box.

powder coat guy

I emailed dennis did not see it on his site also what kind of battery does that need?

ehroof

you can use a couple of 7.2 or a 12 volt

ALot of times you have to take the spacers out on the engine mount so the flywheel sits lower. Thats what we found to work the best.
