THEY ARE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They just arrived today. The retail price is $375, roughly $26 dollars more than the standard Picco Max motor. The street price will be less, right around $265, $270. The original angines sold in stores for about $240. Your local hobby store sets the final price, so they will vary a little bit. Sorry it took so long, they were on the slow boat from Italy. We have a couple hundred in stock. Act fast they are already flying out the door!!

That is the RETAIL price, not the price they will sell for in stores. The street price of the JL Motor is only going to be about roughly $25.00 more then the current motor.

Iam sure Tower and Horizen will have it, will Nitrohouse.com, and your local hobby store will be able to order it from their local distributor too.

That will come down when they actually get it in stock. They are just covering their butts until they find out what their cost is going to be. They had the HPI K5.9 listed at $279.99 until they got it in stock. It's at $249.99 now. I had a coupon code for $50 off a $250 order, so I bought one.

Call nitrohouse, there was some confusion on my order I ended up paying a little less than there normal price. So I would hate to quote it here.

What does the red dot do?

the crankshaft has been milled out to lighten the rotating mass, they then use a red silicone/epoxy to fill the hole they milled into the crank.... As well when they add the filler they usually taper it nicely to aid gas flow......... the JL .12 is the most powerful onroad .12 you can buy, this .26 should be retardedly fast in a Revo

The regular .26 maxx is already stupid fast!The picco engines are very powerful from what I have seen.I just had to upgrade to 23mm hex because my 14mm hex spun out in all four rims on my 40 series with big joes and I was already using aluminum hex nuts.I would love to see a dyno graph of this engine from stock modified vs red dot modified!With a side pipe vs trinty rear pipe.What do you think?

That is it exactly. we add a nice taper with the filler to aid to the gas flow. this motor is going to scream!!!! In reply to the difference in plice, I honestly do not think there will be a huge gap in price. Our retail price difference is only like $30 (?) doillars roughly so there shouldn't be a 100 or 150 dollar difference in price between motors.

How will the peak RPM's compare to the old .26 maxx? Will the JL version out rev a Picco P3 .28?
