Does anyone happen to know of a site online that sells these or any other parts for the picco .26 engine?
There must be 10 different hobby shops around my area but noone has them and noone knows when they will get them from OFNA.
Any help would be awesome...it sucks that my truck is down and there's nothing I can do about it other than buy a new engine.

I would have except they are totally different.
The .21BB has the bearing on the outside of the engine inside the pullstart.
The .26 outlaw has the bearing inside the engine and it sits in a separate assy.

I wasn't sure if the pullstart was the same or not.My 8port is the same way.Ask HPI if there roto start will fit on the pico.26 then you wouldn't have to worry about a pullstart anymore.Maybe the Hyper21 8 port pullstart will fit?

That damn roto-start is the root cause of all these problems
It's what ruined my pullstart bearing.
The pullstart assy for a .21BB, .21 hyper-8 or picco .26 all will fit each other...but the one-way bearing assy's are different.
The .21BB actually has a rod that extends out of the backplate and the one-way bearing sits inside the pullstart assy and just slides over the rod.
The picco .26 has the bearing inside the backplate and the rod that slides into it has the hex nut on the end of it. This hex nut/rod part is what sits inside the pullstart assy and slides into the bearing in the backplate.
I don't remember how the hyper-8's are configured but you see my point.
The picco is still fairly new so not all the LHS have spare parts handy and contacting OFNA is next to impossible. Perhaps there is an alternate assy I can use maybe the one out of a force .25 or some other OFNA engine.
