Default Ehat ever happened to that BUKU pipe review?

Hey Clermont...what happened with that BUKU pipe you were testing?

I totally forgot about that post until my friend asked me about that pipe today.

I remember in that post you were waiting for a reply from the manufacturer to respond before posting what happened.
Have they responded yet?

What's wrong with STS? I thought the sts .30 was a good motor.....I almost bought it, but went with the axial .32 instead.

So the pipe is fragile I guess. Not too concerned about being ROAR legal since it is only gonna be used for bashing, but if its fragile, then it won't be good for bashing either.

STS has alot of problems with their cranks and making bad mills, you will see alot of people who carried them are no longer around (stsmicroengines.com) and a few others. I had a d.28 sts that i just couldnt tune, the needles were all over the place so i just gave up on it and gave it away, clermont gave me another one to put in my wifes hurricane project so i will see but i dont think he is going to carry them anymore either.
