You sill use the same linkage just change the setup on the servo horn. The manual shows exactly how to do it.
Oh and one more thing the Picco has a larger carb opening so I needed a bigger air filter. I used one from a Losi LST and it worked dandy. You could also use a Traxxas TMaxx air filter or something similar.
Sweet. That's a solid option for sure. Do you know anything about this engine? It says that its a direct replacement except for a few minor things. Any other ideas besides the picco?
