Thoughts?

Interesting ? Never looked at that as an option ?

A friend of mine has limited use of his hands so he uses one. It works great.

My question is this: the one by skunkworks or the one at Large Scale RC for 2/3 the price?

That one is new. I haven't read any reviews yet. You might just have to give us one.

the spring broke this weekend in my new XSC pullstart. I fixed it up and put it back together (pita) and it is working fine, but I am thinking that I might just need to try something new. So- try a roto- or go with that bad ass turtle racing V2?

 

[Guest]

I have read older model roto starters failing. Mostly bearing problems. I'd stick to the pull starters.

I am like the others in the discussion though that I HATE taking bodies off just for a re-start. Especially when it is out there far and I used the kill switch on it because it flipped over or got stuck... Im not lazy, I just hate body pins... ha ha ha

Understood...

I'm always loosing mine. I normally come home with half of them. LOL

 

[Guantanamo Joe]

knock on wood, I have not lost one yet... until recently I had no spares, so even when I did lose one, I walked around until I found it... ha ha ha

I run in the grass a lot. That's my excuse. LOL

I could see this being an upgrade next year. With my Dunerunner I wouldn't have to remove the body anyway.

 

[Guantanamo Joe]

that is actually the exact reason I bought the dunerunner... so I wouldnt have to take the body off

I almost bought one from largescalerc.com but I decided to save up for a CPI pipe first!! But I'm going to get one after the pipe!!

 

[dmkolb]

Post videos on your cats. I'm seriously thinking of getting one.

On my xt I ran a small cable to connect the 2 body pins together so I wouldn't loose them..it also helps in removing them..

Sold. Killer RC if it's anywhere as good as their kill switches it'll work just fine.
