thank you, didnt think theyd be that cheap. deffo be getting 1.

ryan its not that i really dislike it id just prefer a pullstart. id rather rely on something purely mechanical, and the fact a week old baby could turn the engine over harder than the ez start can manage

i was just having a look on another site and it says this:

COMMENTS: This part is for the recoil unit only. Screws have thread-locking compound pre-applied

http://www.southeastrc.com/Items/Std...lookup=TRA5170

does that mean it wont fit on the 2.5 with ez-start??

I just put one on my 3.3 engineand had no problem. It was the 2.5 pull start but also fits the 3.3, you will have to use the one way bearing from the easy start.

you'll be fine, it will fit. use the screws that come with it, and as already said take the owb from the ez start and put it in the pull start

Did you order from Southeastrc? Just curious, I have been to their store. My father lives a couple miles from them, and when I visit him, I make an excuse to go there. Everyone there is pretty cool.

i was going to but they only take visa/mastercard and i have neither so went to ebay instead

http://stores.ebay.com/HopMeUp

anything up to 6 items and the shipping is 1 rate, save myself a bit as the lipo battery/chargers were $10 cheaper than on the online shops
