Ok so engine is still in break in first off.lots of smoke and temp never got over 200.first qualifier needle balance was off and had a lean big on top.to late to return just putted her around never hitting full throttle.2nd qualifier leaned bottom a bit and rich top.solid rich performance,left it that way for the main.rich rich rich.I mean just smoked up staging area before main.no issues with this engine the whole main,made every triple pulled ok down straight.I have a rtr pipe on it from the Losi gas rtr.experiment didn't work out so well.....so a 2058 will be added for the race tune.funny thing is with all of these things know,but got well over 10 min on a tank in race conditions.

After putting a race tune in this engine.2058 pipe 30%9%.I have no complants,it will not pull on a p5 on a straight.but it is a good mill.Well worth the money.

All I can say is money well spent.long day at the track,after all qualifiers and a long 20 min main.I was the only engine running in sportsman buggy.don't know what other engines were entered in the race,but this little 60.00 buck mill payed the bills.enough said.great little motor.

I'm not sure 1/8 IC Fan. All I know is the X-Act .21 Pro 5 is a rebadged Go R21-G5PT.

I believe Xact is a brand operated by Answer RC, and Answer RC are in business - I saw them post on facebook yesterday about a new warehouse that is under construction, basicly they posted a picture of a structure and roof, with no walls as of yet. Which they said was their new big giant warehouse.

Lol not even close, internals looks like coming from the .21 Rtr engine

Oh, so you're saying the 3 port RTR engines are also 5 port engines? You obviously haven't even looked.

I sent them a few messages on FB, and we had talked back an forth, but suddenly not a peep. I've been itching to try the 5port for on road, and we had been discussing which heads are compatible.

I'm not to familiar with the GO motors, but is it the same with the coating of the crank as well? All I know of them, is that the GO motors have been making their way into some RTR kits overseas, kind of like what Force / Hyper was doing.

Yes. Everything is the same on the two 5 ports. Exact same parts. However, Go did stop coating the cranks - it had been wearing off in use and didn't seem to help. Here's the Go R21-G5PT.

There's a massive thread on Go engines somewhere around here. I've had great results with mine and have a new GXII Plus (what the G5PT is derived from - exactly the same besides the backplate and head) that I'm itching to break in once I get the chance.

Hey guys!

Yep, we are still about and working on a new generation of engines at the moment. if I'm not about on here you can always catch us on the Answer RC email address as well.
