I've been looking at the 1/18th trucks lately. I like the speed of the
RC18T. The Losi Mini's dual motors seem nice too, but not much of a top
speed. Anyone have expirience with these trucks?

    I am looking for the specifications for this Johnson 550 type motor.
The 2 numbers on it are 66780 and 351341.

I'm looking at this truck, and want to know what everyone thinks about
it? I was looking at a Warhead, but was suggested to that people should

I am looking for worn out rc engines to use the parts in trying to
build a small stirling engine.  I would not be willing to pay a great
deal for a used up engine.  I would not be concerned with compression
and such, but I would prefer that the internal parts not be broken.

whats a good ac/dc charger

I just got one and want to know the cover for the battery/receiver area
