What is the verdict on the Taylor 35

[Ferrebee88]

I've seen mixed reviews on the Taylor 35. Some say it's great, some say it's underwhelming. I am wondering how it compares to the ESP34cc.

I am removing my ESP 34cc from my Vekta.5 to put in my Vesla.5 build and am looking for a replacement motor for my Vekta.5. I would like to pit a Taylor 46cc, but I don't have that much dough to spare for a while.

I currently have about $800 left to spend at the moment.

Has anyone tried both the 35 piston and the reed?

I have the Taylor 35cc V2 Reed in my new baja that I just built. Currently still in the break in process but so far its running great with good power

T 35 reed is a great engine. It is slightly better than ported reed zenoah, but nothing stunning. it's still just a smallbore . if you want to feel difference , better save more money and buy a 46gt .. I have a t35 reed and now I have a 46 too (I haven't tried it yet)

You can score big deals on Facebook for motors, bigbores especially.

I've owned every brand smallbore, they are all comparable in my book. None of them have the oh my God factor over the other. Taylor, and obr have the best customer service from all of them, bartolone being next. Esp is an awesome choice, and more budget friendly, most sales and service go through ddm and they are great as well

That makes sense. I have bought and sold off Facebook marketplace before. I'll keep an eye out. I live in western Washington and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of people running 5th scale

I did a local search for Taylor RC and found this sweet Losi Baja Rey for $800
