I think the Ofna/Picco 3 port is Piccos RR. So what ever those motors used. I looked
at my Picco RC real quick, I couldnt really tell, looks like it has a button.

Foger Rox: From what I have heard, OFNA will be receiving
a 3 port standard plug that is similar to the Trinity RR, a
5 port that is probably identical to the Collari 5 port Turbo,
and a 7 port Turbo, that from what I have heard so far, OFNA
has exclusive rights to....sounds like OFNA is seriously stepping
up to the plate in so far as engine performance is concerned!
I received a Collari 5 port turbo from the importers of the
Collari line to evaluate about a month ago and this is what I
found in addition to what you have heard from "motorman"...
crankshaft intake, transfer, and exhaust timing are in between
what you would find in a typical MT12/RS12/RB12 engine and
what you would call a "full race" engine...(i.e. JP Black or Rody
Roehm .21 engine)...in other words, this was the first production
.12 that I have run across that was semi-seriously modified...
if this holds true for the 7 port turbo, then there is no doubt
that the .12 200mm class will evolve from its "entry level" class
that Serpent and Mugen seem deternined to keep it at......
