It is hard to tell if the whole motor is built by the GO factory, but it does not appear to be. They do definitely get their new carb from GO however. It is the same carb that is on the current test version of the GX II. There may be some small changes made to final GO branded version.

No not the same carburetor and no, Arrow is not made by Go. We have some pics of the prototype using a similar one, but the final revision has a slightly different casting and a different inner insulator. The pictures I distributed to factory team guys and dealers showed a reference carburetor, since ours was not ready at the time. I know for a fact that they spent over 2 months testing different plastic insulation, for just the right mix of strength, heat resistance, and heat insulation. This so that the air/fuel mix doesnt absorb heat that would be drawn up from the crankcase, into the carb. Cooler charge=better runtime and more power.
Inferno- I sent you a PM on monday, advising that if you hadnt received the stickers yet, to let me know and I'd get them out UPS. USPS letter is not trackable.
Regarding Arrow, this is a direct quote from Go Taiwan "We are aware of Arrow and no they are not us."

those websites are for reference and news only!...they do not sell RETAIL thats why!...and thats where the DEALERS come in...we've been working really hard trying to get these motors in the Local Hobby Shops...and as bigmatt is doing...trying to start online RETAIL sites....

thanks for mentioning my name. Bigmatt. I am trying to get a web site going to were you come pic your parts and pay all at the same time. I will try and keep everyone posted as to how I am doing. I know we have the new line coming,but I am still hoping that the older line will still need parts also. Me myself even though I have a sponser ship in part from answerrcamerica to run mg-66's,I still love my go engines. When done right{breakin] they last a long time. I have a 7 port with 12 gallons through it. And still using it. So with that in mind I would like to have a little of everything. So I am working with trey to see price breaks things of that sort. I would imagine he himself is very busy getting things going also. Is puddin still working for him?
Regarding the web site- I'll be updating when I get the new product image stock from Taiwan. However, I'll be posting the GX engines exploded views to our forums area tonight. Please bear with us... a LOT of things are going on right now!
