Yeah, that was me. Actually is was $273. When that thing hits my country, it will cost almost double that. I can't wait to start the break-in tomorrow

I really don't understand all this hype about the 21TM. If it sells for anything north of 225, it's not even worth it unless it keeps up with a Picco or RB.

Well, I broke it in today, and I have to say it's insanely fast. Plus, like I said, in my country it will be much more north of 225, so it was a good deal for me. Plus, it's an O.S. For me, they make the best nitro engines in the world. If it was anyhing else (picco, rb) I wouldn't even place a bid.

Purchase a VG series engine, change your whole perspective on O.S. The V spec still rocks though.

RE: What engine are you running?
bought it new...used 2 OWB's on each...the LHS said it was so tight i had to take it off the car and put it on a bench or something and get an airplane starter to force it to start.

That's a waste of money, send it into O.S and demand annother engine. That stuff dosen't fly with me, I would have gotten a new engine. Have your dad talk to O.S so they take it seriously.

RE: What engine are you running?
Thats insane. Spray some wd-40 onto the piston and heat up the block a little to loosen the pinch. Also loosen the plug a little bit until you hear it about to fire. Then tighten it real quick and it should start.
