Hello Brian,
How do I determine the age of the engine? I just bought it 2 weeks ago locally at the HobbyZone central office which happens to be in town. Other than that I don't know what else to go by.
Also, should I be able to see anything wrong with it by removing the back-plate alone? I read somewhere that any disassembly beyond that will void warranty.
Thanks.
Chris
