The last time we ran Derek's GT he had swapped the OS .12 for the .15 and I was surprised at the difference. The .15 hauled ass. Not sure how these compare, or if it's going in a GT. Seeing all these engines lately makes me wish I could get motivated to convert my GT back to gas.

I'm thinking I'll swap out the .12 for the .15. I originally ordered the .15 to run and the .12 was an impulse buy. Which engine series was In Derek's GT, CV/CV-R?

Don't convert it back to gas, buy another one so you have both

This is definitely the best solution to increase the motivation scale.

CV-R I believe. Edit: Maybe CV. I know the 12 he has is the one that came in my FT GT, and the blue one is just the .15 version of that engine. It has been a long time since I personally messed with that engine though.

Really the only situation that makes any sense. Convert it back? That's silly and quite bizarre. Or.... Buy another rc? Duh... it's like asking if you should cash in a winning lottery ticket.

Buy a new nitro and convert it to brushless so it'll be fast.

Never thought I'd find one of these. This was my first RC10. Pretty sure mine was a late edinger simply due to when I purchased it but this Cadillac is close enough. The kit came as stripped down as could be- no electronics, no body, no wing, no driver. I had a stock car body on mine first, later went to a buggy body. I remember ordering it and hoping there would be a mistake made and it would have came with a motor and body lol. Nope. This was 10 year old me, the same kid that saw the listings for the tekin speed controls and the one called heatsink was super affordable yikes.

Bat Wedgies!!! (2) Very cool!! Thanks Robb!

Custom decal set from MCI

That custom decal creator is magic, the only "complaint" if there was such a thing was the time that it took to get printed.

How was postage to this far-off land?

First time Tecnacraft owner! With the sticker, even.

Three Peak Performance motors from Ed (Frankentruck). Two 13x2s for an ongoing project, and an 11x4 for the AE dragster. Should be perfect matches all around! The 11Q looks right at home. Also got in a bunch of Tami Hauler plastics from everyone's friend nitro-master.

How can one man bring me so much happiness? FTW parts for my Invader Off Road. I love how the size of the free stickers provided usually correlate to the size of the parts. Its all about the details.
