Everything that I have thrown at them has started, (5 engines including 1 new and 2 fresh pinched) but it seems a bit more of a struggle to get the engine to rev and fire up. Maybe even throw a pair of stock 27T motors that the electric guys are getting rid of in there and see how they work?

x2 on the rewiring the entire box, using good (deans) connectors and soldering every connection.
Well my starter box motors let go last night trying to break in my new GO 5-port.... I am still looking for some good HD motors to run. More than a few times people have said the Integy 55t is a bit too slow. So I am searching for some very powerful motors that have decent RPM that will fit the Losi box. Has anyone found anything suitable?


How much mod work is required to put these Ofna motors in? http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/13479
