Hi David,

I agree with you, my Jetcats auto start spoiled me forever. I wanted to buy some small 12lb thrust motors for a twin project and was looking for simplicity because of the twin, you know, less of everything might be better. I do not have a Mamba on order and was waiting to see how this motor was received by other modelers before purchase. It is amazing how many delievery dates have been provided. The latest was Jan 2nd but it seems now from the other post that FJ is the official kick off?? I think the horses are out of the barn on this motor, the others are all elec start, cheaper in price and ready to ship right now or you can buy a P-80 and be done with it!! (like I just did)...

Vin...
