I can't wait to see what he like better the LST 2 or the REVO. I have been wanting a new truck and this will help me make up my mind on the REVO or LST2. Can't wait!

The engine is started by a spin start. A battery operated drill like starter that turns over the engine.

RE: Just bought an LST2 to challenge my REVO and T-Maxx
I did not like the E-Z start. The last thing I need on my racer is ANOTHER piece of electronics that has a chance to fail. Solder joints, and electronics in general are somewhat fragile. Most people may have no problem with it, but I am an unlucky SOB. Murphy follows me around like a shadow, so I take every step I can to avoid him. Besides, it adds weight. For racing, the object is to have the best power to weight ratio. Most racers I know take the E-Z start off their Revo's, then put in an OS 18.

To be perfectly honest, I really didn't find the spin starter/glow ignitor combo to be more inconvenient thant the E Z starter anyway. That wire that goes on the glow plug gets messed up pretty quick after changing and/or checking your glow plug often. 6 of one, half dozen of the other in my book.

diggs, the rotostarter is a black thing with a blue hand strap. It should come with the LST 2. If you must use a cordless drill, set the torque limiter to like 6 or 7, otherwise you make destroy the rotostart like me

I'd say the only real downside of the EZ start is that it's more expensive to replace than just a glow ignitor. Of course that new bump starter for the Revo makes the whole point moot!

Yeah Man, thats what I call RC! No better feeling that seeing your truck fly 12 feet through the air.
Well its a good feeling if it lands and keeps going!
