Does anyone have trouble with there pull starts.. My Gs Storm pull keeps breaking... i got gone through one.. Repaired it once and bought a new one and the screwsthat hold it in place came out which meant it ****ed up.. repaired the new one... but i reckon they we **** up again..

Do you reckonmmend thread lock with the screws to keep it in place or a starter box..

I heard that 7.2v starter boxes are ****... an i should think about getting a 12v one.. but hassle to carry it around..

or stick with the pull start.. .

please help...

i have a storm, and its not really a GS problem. Its a .21 size motor problem. They have such high compression that they grenade pull starts all the time.
I bought the 12v starter box and couldnt think of breakin in a motor ever again with out one.
Its kinda a pain if you stall 50 feet from your box and you have to go get the car and carry it back. Thats where the pull start comes in handy

Id say get the bump box. I got the pink ofna one and it works like a champ.Think about it the $50 you spent on 2 pull starts already you could have almost got the box. Then if you get another .21 im willing to bet your gonna break more of them.

i think i'll have to look into getting one..

and also could i fit my cen 1/10th buggy on a 1/8th starter box...??

what about those crank sticks. Anyone use them?

For those that dont know what they are I seen em on tower hobbies site...they replace your starter and come out a few inches and your drill plugs into it to start the motor.

the yank eliminator is an example of the drill start your talking about. i havent used one but i heard they are ok. its basically the same idea that started the SAVAGE electric start.

evil, with the pink box i got it also works with 1/10th on-road cars.im not sure on the cen and how it looks but if the flywheel is like a regular on-road car it should be fine. the cen rep checks in here from time to time and hit him up with that question next time you see him post something.
