Hi,
I am looking for a new engine for a stadium truck (HPI MT2). I can buy a Picco omega xt .15 engine or an LRP Z.16S engine. They are both the same price, and according to the manufacterers websites, they have the same specs (1.3HP, 33000 rpm max). As I understand it, the rotostart backplate from the T-15 will fit the LRP engine, but not the picco. So I am leaning towards this engine. Does anyone have any experience with this engine? Any reasons why I should not buy it? Could someone perhaps compare it to the HPI T-15?
Thanks,
Nick
