Which glow ignitor
so i have a rc10 GT2 and it was really hard to start i thought it was the car and after some further testing i found that it was the glow ignitor (the crappy one that comes with the kit) so why question is what glow ignitor works best

RE: Which glow ignitor
You mean glow plug??? If it's the glow plug, go with the OS #8. If you really meant the glow igniter, then I have this one and It works great. Here's a link.... http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXD699&P=SM It's rechargeable.

Pretty much any ignitor that has a removable battery is an upgrade. Another thing to look for is the battery meter in the handle. One with a long shaft is preferable, too...no toasted knuckles on hot restarts.

i bought the team magic gi that already has a 3300mAh battery which is removable. at the bottom of it you can also see how much voltage your battery is still able to give which is pretty nice if you ask me

is it first start of the day? if you keeep your truck in a garage or in a cold area, try warming it up with a hairdryer. and keep it inside, like your room or something
