Continuing from the old thread ....... It looks similar Vectra. Cool video BTW. This IS a brand new model however. We have waited for it on a waiting list since February 2006. The body is a similar shape but different colour, and engine size similar. So the vid clip one may be the same but being sold under a different name…

Re-opening old thread linked in a new thread here.

Just regarding nitro engines - Do you think that once you have the engine tuned up properly and running smooth it should start more or less everytime assuming there's compression and fuel is primed etc.

Running free ... pre-primed with fuel .... (assuming a recoil start) they start first pull.

When some tightness is in an engine, eg not completely run in yet. A couple of pulls is necessary to warm it up first, then it starts ... always on the same pull ... eg always on the 2nd, or the 4th, and so on.
