Epic 18 motor 1.8 hp
 
Browsing through Tower Hobbies came across the Epic 18, some good hp figures, might be a replacement for tired FS18's in Terra Crushers... Priced at 190 smackeroos.
Anyone have experience with them ?

I would try the Fantom 18 engine. It's packed with features!

cool, I also will be looking at a new engine for my terracrusher in the next month or two and a fantom .18 would be pretty sweet, and hopefully cheaper than the sirio .18

Looking at the dimensions - the Epic 18 should slot straight in, has the same exhaust configuration, also according to the tech write-up it develops 1.8 hp, more than the others !
I think this will be the new TC motor for replacement.
Only drawback is the price
