Advantages: Good to use when works Disadvantages: Most parts bad quality
I agree on the bad service from nitrotek but i talked to a nicer guy who went through steps when i had my RC Condor he got me to send in the engine to be repaired which it came back worked fine, the only down side is the throttle servo will cut out every so often so get a fail safe and then your car is as safe as you, the tuning is bad i was told by a stricter guy from nitrotek that they were the easiest engines to tune on the market, i have to tune mine each time i use it, pull starters i had 2 for mine then gave up and bought an electric starter no problems, and get yourself a better glow plug standard issue is bad. ...
