i liked my axial32 while it was in there. i used the stock tank with a piece of fuel cell foam in it. are your fuel lines between 10 and 12 inches long? some people were doing this too.

Axial .32 is a nice engine, but the LRP.28 is better for the warhead. I know I have had both, and the LRP is better.

well if you want power then the axial 32, but if you want just as much power and speed, then the LRP.28 spec3, and plus the LRP is cheaper, the average price for the axial 32 is $185 and for the LRP its about $170.

i recently bought a 2.5 revo with the xtm 457 in it. i havent been able to get them geared similarly enough to tell how it compares to my 3.3 with the .32 axial in it though. but it is pretty strong.

Anyone know where they have it in stock?
