    I didn't drive the thing in ages, Im sorry to see it just sitting there with a new engine. I fired up the OS18 and didn't run great, I couldn't even keep it going for a half tank. I shall wait for the summer weather but for how long?:rolleyes:

    Thats a pity about the Revo.. Dont give up.. keep trying.. maybe it just needs running in before it will run true for you. What nitro are you using?

    Not sure what to buy now.

    I can get a good Force .32 engine with a 16t clutchbell cheap.
    I can get a new Force .28 (not sure of price yet )
    or
    An
    OS .30VG New for about £140.

    Now.
    Does anyone have any views on this one ?
    ROSSI MAMBA .21 7 Port. Looks interesting. :D

    I would go with the OS. Best engines ever. OR if the Force.32 is priced right - go for that;)

    Force .32 has about 10 tanks through it by a very careful owner. I can get the for £55 delivered to me. I might just buy it and still get the OS as I plan on buying another Truggy anyway and would be a handy spare. :cool:
