He slipped a Mickey in on us! I did not know he had a foreign truck! I have zero experience with that chassis, it looks like an on road header for the left side might be better though.

I bought a picco 28, i foundthe stock savage's air filter did not fit the carb of picco 28,the savage's air filtercame out from thecarb ofpicco 28very easily, is this air filtergood forpicco 28? http://www3.omnimodels.com/cgi-bin/w...P=M&I=MSFG1148. ?

In order OFNA 086, Dynamite 086, and the pipe you listed

speed lover

Are all they pipes the same in performance or is the dynamite and fastrax no good. Got my engine today WOW very nice with the low head ran 1 tank just along the ground at 1/4 throttle opening and shutting the throttle slowly very nice running fired up straight away and was easy to keep cool at around 180 degrees then I would throttle for a bit longer taking it upto 195 to 205 then just punching the throttle quicklyon and off at 1/4 throttle colled down to 180 then back upto around 217 then I cooled it down to 192 then shut it off cooled it to 135 then fired it up again and used the other 1/2 a tank at around the 185 to 195 mark. This engine is far superior in quality than my Axial 32 the piston looks like it is pollished and the cylinder also very nice metal. the axial is much rougher finnished the cylinder also you can see that the metal is not as solid and consistant. Even on run in on the the first it seems to be more responsive and pics up very quick. it camewith no plug and no paper work but for £116 I can't complain.

OFNA would be my first choice with the Dyn second. I don't know about the fastrax but as you cansee in the photos it's shaped differentlooks to be a little fater doesn't it? I would also run the OFNA Picco plughttp://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...4&I=LXGPN3&P=K You don't have to buy it here just a link...

the air filter of savage xl did not fit the carb of picco 28. which one fit picco 28 ?

BudBud

I have been using the XL filters and a larger wire tie to cinch them down with. Glen

driller2948

I use a small hose clamp

junior driver

what is the part # of your filter ?

BudBud

I have been buying lots of five or ten from Hopmeup on Ebay, 4.87 and 3.60 shipping, but addtional items ship free. I have tons of foams, I keep breaking the plastic lid that covers the end of the fitler. Running a body more often would stop some of that. Glen

I've run about 1/3 of a gallon through my car wow this thing is powerfull still on factory needle setting and it's faster than my Axial serous power I can't wait to run it in and get the shim out andput some 30% through it with a good pipe. Very stable temps and usually it stays around the 195 to 225 mark I have been using full throttle the last 3 tanks to keep the temp up but only for short bursts the carb has not leeked yet but I am waiting. the needle housing on mine is black rather than beeing silver also the short head is great but it needs cooling from the front as the hyper st shell is too hight. The temp usually rises to 235 to 240 and will keep going if you let it. But very impressed going to try a 17 tooth clutchbell with a new clutch see how fast I can get it to go.

driller2948

I found a better solution The one way bearing from the 28 will not fit the 26 or 27 without modification. They use the same bearing. But the 28 backplate will fit both the 26 & 27 allowing the use of the 28 bearing

Really, thats good to know. Never would have thought to check that.

I hope my boy can get his 5T running tonight and I will be sure all is good!

Well I was running more fuel through my engine and was going to order a jamin 086 pipe until I bought a Schumacher filter to go with the colour of my engine. I was at a dusty track with a new and oiled filter with the tie wraps fitted and 3 tanks in the engine it failed to start. and once I went home and checked it the next day the engine was full of dust and my engine is destroyed no compresion at all and the best thing is this engines carb did not leak. I figured out that the filter is not that well designed it does not compress the inner filter enough and when you put the outer one on you get alift on the inner one which lifts it up so you have a gap on the inner one. when you try to stretch it down you get the same at the top. Schumacher want to see the engine and I'm hoping they do something but not really that confident they will. I cannot believe my luck so I went out and replaced it with a Falcon rs .28 engine basicly a Ninja MR28. I've went through 3 engine now a Macstar 28 it just eventually wore out the Axial well that destroyed itself after 2 to 3 gallons and the Schumacher got around 4 litres not even half way run in. If this next engine goes wrong I don't know what I'll do maybe buy a Playstation 3 instead or get back into planes.

-SomeGuy-

You cant really blame the engine because the filter wasnt doing its job. And besides you should have a good nitro AND a PS3 .

My Feedback: (1)

Well I've been away for a while gents two months of 13 hr nightshifts!! and haven't hardly ran theSavy much. The last couple of tries were a little frustrating, brought it to work to rip around in the parking lot(trying to get a couple fellas interested to have somebashing buddies) and go figure the locknut for the spur kept loosening. So I replaced it 2 days ago andwas quite happy as the picco has seemed to finally broke in to its sweetspot!! Well after carving out yet another jump in the yard went to try it and the spur melted before I could even give it a rip.Pulled themotor out and found that the motor plate wascracked and bent probablyfrom a nasty wipeout about two months ago. Sometimes this hobby can drive a guy nuts, I've got almostan entire trucks worth of parts but never the one I need. Waitingagain in Washington!

Well you won't believe it after my Picco getting all that dirt through it I got the Falcon r2 .28 /ninja mr .28. And after about a gllon and a half it was going like stink unbelievable revs and power. But I hit a rock sticking out the ground which ripped the battery off and the car got stuck on full throttle hit a bush that flipped it on it's roof and blew the engine. GUTTED
I got a spear one cheap but I have to say this is getting expensive might go for an O.S 28xz next.
