Theres nothing wrong with the 1-way its self, just the case that holds it, tends to crack were it meets the crank!! Theres 2 ways to fix it, my "hacking way" or smoothen the sharp corners of the 1-way case, havent done that, I just stuck my 247 pullstart kit on it and havent looked back!!

Yes, gtxracer7 is telling the truth !!! They are both the same engine. D'ont let them foul you by another head or color. Both have the same problems.
. That keeps on going on and on and on............. Haven`t people learn not to trust them.

if you get the .26 just put a rotostart on it right away, because the pull starts are cheap and yu will break the spring in them. Also the carb issue is 1/2 way fixed, the LSN is suppose to be black with a rounded end(that is inside carb) mine is silver and end is pointed. Now i'm not having the issues of running hot or hard to tune with it as i have heard, but i will still be buying the correct needle. My one way also broke and sent it to ofna and they fixed it It looks like it is a little beefier than the original but i could be mistaken, so i ran like 3 tanks with the roto start and it hasn't broke but i will race it today so we will see if it lasts
