Manufacturers make things specifically to wear out. If not they can't keep reselling them. Thomas Edison's original light bulb Is still burning bright in New Jersey. The light bulb companies realized that if they copied his original design they would sell a few million light bulbs and nobody would ever need to buy them again. So they made them with thin filament wires so they burn out and we have to keep buying them. I am sure there a similar concept with Nitro Engines and many other products on the market today. It's all about the $$$ and the stupid gullable consumer which would be us
As an example I can tell that my 1st JP R09 engine had 0.01 mm crankpin wear off after 20 liters because the DLC coating JP uses. A standard Novarossi engine does not have such a coating and wears off faster.
But imagine how much the costs are if an engine needs to be created that strong, only getting it all right for a much longer lifespan you need to pay $200 extra for the production costs and indeed the low aftersales will raise the price 3 times at least to stay alive.
I always wondered how it is possible to get a simple Force engine for about 80 dollar which will run well and can be made faster while Italian brands do kost 3 up to 8 times that price.... OK, Asian productions are always cheap

The GROSSI MOTOR is interesting, but at $600 I doubt that there will be many takers. As I read the Grossi ad, the supplied engine does not have a ringed piston. This seems to be an option available down the line.

Im thinking about mounting this first one I have on either a SPRINT CAR or a GO CART. This motor is like the ROLEX of R/C engines. I have a feeling that this will be a great boat engine as well. Thanks for the feedback guys! I have several orders pending and looking to make some sweet deals for you guys during my first month as a sales rep. I will be talking with HQ later this week and will keep you posted on those orders.
but i want one

So anyone try one of these motors/set-up out?
Saw on their youtube channel that they were on the west coast testing. Overall the filming was crap so hard to judge how the motor runs when the camera man is out of focus or panning around. The motor sounds healthy down the front straight but no indication that the water cooling is helping run times or tune.
Very interested in the design and the motor. Also does this motor fit standard engine mounts? It appears that you need a special engine mount and def. need a revo starter box or their starter box mod setup. Another $$$ maybe. A lot of coinage to switch over to water cooled just want to make sure it is worth it...
