motor
I rest my case,I just want to know who makes the motor, because I know it is not a company called JS that is going to come out with one .21 buggy motor and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on the equiptment to make a single engine.

You might be right but who said this would be the only motor they will make?
If I was starting a motor company, the first motor I would market (besides plane motors) would be offroad .21 motors. They are far easier to get right then onroad motors where shear horsepower is everything but people still expect them to last. I'd get my feet wet with offroad motors and take a LOT of time developing before I sold the first onroad motor.
Just look at GRP. They came out with everything at once. Lots of people seem to love the offroad motors but most onroad racers wouldn't run one if you gave it to them. They should have done a little more homework first.

I'm sure Ed can clear it all up, but i'm sure he wants to wait till he has a complete press release ready

who says there is only gonna be 1 engine? I would think that other versions of the engine will show themselve, you have to give it time. Have to be settled on product #1 before you start on product #2.

Why would a company starting to make engines want to invest all possible machinery just to get things done inhouse ? Does RB make everything on their own ? In Taiwan there is a bunch of capable companies where one can source parts as per spec. It's more down to being able to define the specs and needed materials in a correct level.

Its the person behind the project that knows the quality dont forget that .We make our rims out of du pont nylon but we import it into china from the usa because china has copies of material like what they call there fake
pa66 which is rubbish.
But we make the highest quality of rim in the world period but its not china that does it its the people behind it all .
Were do you think Novarossi pipes and headers come from .were do you think novarossi bearings come from .taiwan but its the people behind it all at novarossi with there quality control that make it all happen with the quality .
I have a friend who owns a panel shop and works on ferraris and let me tell you once those panels come of those cars even the interior it never goes on like it should again you have to kick the door trims on.
So what im trying to say is quality is everywhere as long as the person knows what they are doing .
Not putting down anybody just putting my point across.
Ive seen the JS engine run here in Australia with Ian haley and it has run time ,its fast and it will only get better .
So who cares who makes it and what country its made from.Only care that it is a Good motor that will give others a run for there money and it's 100% quality .

motor
I just want to know who makes the motor in Taiwan because you can only hope it is made by GO. It costs thousands of dollars to make a new motor and alot of testing, just look at how long the new Odonnell motor took to come out, because it is made by a Taiwan 2 stroke engine company that had no model engine experience and it took 2 years to get the quality. I have seen how long Thunder Tiger has been working on the new Reedy motor and the thousands of dollars they have spent to develope it. Any one can make a fast motor that can win a race but the Italians and now GO and Thunder Tiger and SH in China are starting to figure out that we want Quality. Any one try the STS S21T the motor is sick fast and will win any race but you are lucky to get 3 gallons out of it lol. That is all I am trying to say. I will buy one because I love micro motors that is why I like this hobby I try them all.
