I believe it has a 2.1cc engine. They cost a lot, They don't make em anymore so they are rare. I got mine unfinished and I must say the guy did keep it in mint condition even the box is mint.

youve got to be kidding me...... a 2.1 if that is true that thing will hit over 100mph! my friend has a rc car with the biggest engine he could buy and i thought that it was a .75cc. or maybe you mean .21?

Yea by Kyosho and it probably is a .21. The manual is in Jap. mostly so I just scan and I thought it said 2.1.:rolleyes:

um arnt the size of the engine measured in inchs. So the .21 wouuld be .21 of a cubic inch? Im not positive on this but thats what i thought when i bought mine. Have fun with that thing though theya re pretty fun but high matnence you think a quad is alot of maintanance lol very easy to break also watch out you dont go wide open until the radio is out of distance ll my bro ddi that with his t max and it casue like 100 in damage. lol but like i said its alot of fun i almost thoguht that half the fun was working on the thing

no there measured in cubic in. i got the manuel for my traxxas nitro hawk sittin here:D could be the company, but if its a .21 itts definetly a .21CI

a .21ci engine would be 3.44cc, and that seems high for something that small. I'm not into rc cars at all, but a nitro 2-stroke of that size in something that weighs 5 lbs seems like ti wouldnt event be able to move due to spinning tires.

Alright enough with the specs.... I didn't buy it to argue the size of it. Come on guys it's like the ultimate quad toy.

hehe, the guys saying that .21 is CI is correct, which comes out to a few cc's. I have one nitro car, and they are made to spin the tires.. lol.

That thing looks pretty cool, I would like to have an electric one. Lots easer to work on and run. But your limited to the number of batteries you have sittin around too.

But you just inspired me.. over this xmas break I think im goin to build a custom RC quad with my old parts!

after a summer of having them cars, my friends and i hav decided they are nothing more than a waste of time, they are fun when running, but they brake constantly, right now, i still have my heli, but 2 of the servo's went out of wack, and now it is just a decoration

12-24-2002, 10:58 PM

no way does that have a .21. it wouldbe soo fast it would be uncontrolable or just flip over, I have a stamepe with an O.S. .15 and it does like 40MPH
