We prefer the Mugen Ninja B02....nearly identical engine to the Speed, but with better stock timing for me to work with.........Making the modified Ninja a better engine then the modified Speed !

A little Clocked Bonito action !!!! critics can talk all the trash they want ,but that doesn't change the fact that the Clocked Bonito is the baddest, meanest fastest .21 on the dirt...

Well we had our last race of the year yesterday. Wanted to end the year with a win but luck was not on my side. Decided to finally install my new radio on all my rides as I was tired of lugging two radios to the track to control my buggy and truggy. I had it for awhile but been too busy to replace it until the night before....
Truggy;
Had qualified 2nd on the grid in the A but been having binding issues throughout the quals. Each time right before the warm ups as I started my engine. I would suddenly just bind and I was good to go. Well the same thing happend before the main but seemed all good. Had a great start at the buzzer and trailed in 2nd for a few laps, Leader got tangled up and I took over the lead spot for the next 14 minutes. Got a 2 lap lead over everyone with my CRE Bonito and was on easy street for the win with 6 mins to go. Well, my luck ran out when my reciever diecided it didnt want to communicate with the transmitter. Kept unbinding and binding and losing signal. tried to finish but decided to pull it off the track instead. DNF!!!!!! Bonito was ROCKIN though!
Had similar luck in buggy too. Qualified 3rd in the A with my CRE P5. Weather was odd so had some tuning issues and ended up being a tad too lean. Power was monstrous. Well, got a good start and was running in 2nd until the guy behind me hit me and I spun completely around, getting nailed multiple times leaving me in last place. Well, started working my way up, charging hard back to 4th when my clutch gave out causing a flame. started it back up and tried to make up ground but flamed again.....Another DNF!!!! This is the first time the P5 felt too overpowered for me in the buggy, only reason it being lean.
Although had a bad weekend, I still love my CRE mills and could not have asked for anything more from the engines. Gonna start breaking in the Roma soon....cant wait to try it out, finally.
Thanks Neal and John for such great products.
Buggy master's CRE P5 took the win in buggy though!!!

I was actually considering the 4PKs before I bought the Radiopost. Its funny because it only happens with my truggy. What engine you running? maybe the Bonito puts out too much power and vibrates the hell out of it? Ha ha, Just kidding. Will try to switch out the reciver and try again. LMK what you find with yours.

Sorry to hear your Bad Luck Neesh, I can only assume you have the New rx's with the green boards and Not the Red Circuit boards ?
Have you contacted RP yet ? If Not Greg will Surely take care of you in what ever it takes to get the radio up and running as it should.
I had a slight hiccup roughly middle of the summer with the red Rx's and I had some shut down's and One Run away due to turning off the Lipo Cut Off On my KO Switch. Once i got the New Green Rx's everything was ducky.

I havent contacted anyone yet. How do I get in touch with Greg? Not sure about which circuit board I have but its the 5 channel one. Will have to take it out and take a look. Too pissed to look at my truggy right now...LOL

Flip it upside down, you will see what color the circuit board is. As Nick said, some of the red circuit boards had some glitching issues but have now been replaced with the 'green boards', this was back in early summer.
