Oh, so it comes out in July.
I've been waiting for that.
Any price on it yet?
I know Novak was coming out with one, but I heard Futaba was going to make one too.
So I decided to wait for the Futaba one.

Monster or Stadium truck?
I've got a Stadium truck.
I'm not sure if I should mention what it is.
I might get hell for saying it in here.

Now I've calmed down a bit though, I think there maybe something to rescue - the bearings seem to rotate fine. Shall I post some pics of the cleaned up parts? If so what would you need to see to make a rough oppinion?

I believe it already came out. But I have not seen it anywhere. It is suppose to work with the new lower end radio 3PM which has HRS option ! :eek: :lol: I believe the receiver model is R303FS which I think will work with 3PK...:sneaky:

Thanks D.
I'll check it out.
Do you know if it will work with PCM?

Top view of the piston and combustion chamber would be good. See if the edges of the round piston is scarred. The pic of inside a liner would also be good.

I suggest once you clean everything, put it aside and when your brand new JP engine comes, try to fit the piston / sleeve inside with the JP conrod and assemble it like you want to start it. Turn the flywheel and put your ear beside the exhaust port to hear if there's excessive leakage of air trapped in the combustion chamber. If it's very easy to turn the flywheel or more importantly you hear a gush of air leaking out as soo as you turn your flywheel, then you know that the piston / sleeve is gone...
