NO! It's not even out yet!

IT HAS ARRIVED!

This engine practically kicked ass during our last race...

But wat is really satisfying is the price.

I like the packaging they used for the enignes and pipes. Plastic containers with molded foam pieces to protect the motor and pipes. Very nice .

Maybe it's because they break easy?.....
"Fragile, handle with care...."

Any .12 between those engines? Or are they all just .21s?

It's really just the marketing guys busy at work on their psychological sales warfare. This type of packaging creates the illusion of something unique and special. It can be quite effective.

Is this packaging just for the promotional kits or does the regular store inventory come packaged like this as well?

if i'm not wrong, those are .21s.
the .12s will arrive in a mth's time ..

Hi Riketsu,

They say it would be about another month or so for the .12s....

Hello rmdhawaii,

They will be for sale from stores the way they are shown in the pictures (Plastic Packaging , protective foam, CD ROM, and all).

Damn... Im very eager to see them in action...

CD ROM?

Probably includes the instructions, videos on how to tune it and how to break-in. Or something like that. I may be wrong though...

Hi wyl03,

Yes, upon purchase of this motor, it includes an informational CD re: (Parts, Operational Manual, Maintenance, etc)...

When you buy a Motor nowadays, you get the piece of paper with instuctions regarding break in, exploded view, etc, Correct?...

Well, this is pretty much the same one but on a CD..

Guys,

Anyone already tested the Offroad Buggy version ? ... and ... where can i get the best price online for this little beasts ?

thanks,
