The Mugen box is the best. Yes you can get parts for it. If you are having line up problems, you need to adjust its set-up.

What happened to yours?

Mugen box with a 4cell lipo battery. Make sure your wheel is not to small. If the wheel s small in diamter and do not have a new one locally. Use 3-5mm shims on the motor unit to raise it up. Remove the top deck from the box to align the box perfectly to your chassis. Everyoen I know who has been racing for many years with Kyoshos, mugens, serpents all use the mugen box. So if you are having issues starting your car then you need to re-align the chassis or get yourself a new wheel and 4cel lipo battery.

+1 Best way to set up a starter box is before you build the kit just use the bare chassis to set up the stops. I ran the Mugen box with Kyosho Evolva with no issues. Belts and rubber wheels are available for Mugen and motors are interchangable. I have never seen a listing for any other parts but I have never had a request either?

I look for a box with a 700 series motor and single belt reduction drive. Simple and effective. Never been much of a fan of multiple 540 motors and multiple belt reduction drives.

I've been using the Hudy Star Box with my M3 evo. Quite happy with it, always plenty of power for starting....although I am using two 2 cell lipos...and it's half the size of the Mugen box (good if you like to minimize spatial constraints for transport).

As everyone knows, you must ensure that the chassis is properly aligned with the provided pegs to have consistent, easy, fast results.

That's a screaming deal for someone!

+1 on Robert's post. I have both the Hudy and Mugen box on 4 cell lipo and either one will easily start a new .21. I spent time with a bare chassis getting the posts to align well. Now, anyone (aka my random pit guy) can simply place the car on the starter and push down to fire it up every time.
