My new engine - Its says V-Spec on it!

EddScott · 5 Feb 2008 at 20:55

With the recent threads on all the new stuff folk have received through the post, I thought I'd show you my latest purchase.

O.S. .21 (3.5cc) VZ-B V-Spec
Max RPM 40,000
Max 2.5HP @ 33,000

Will be run on 25% nitro fuel.

If you've never heard these engines check out youtube. They sound awesome. Get half a dozen cars at the startline and you can't hear a bloomin thing

Couldn't I get the same effect by ticking my head in a hornet's nest...?

40,000 rpm? :eek:

Firestar_3x · 5 Feb 2008 at 21:13

I've got a K4.6 (.28) that makes 2.95bhp

However i think they sound naff, loads of run to drive around.

For once I actually found your wit quite funny!

Tom|Nbk · 5 Feb 2008 at 22:48

Imagine the BHP/Weight ratio.

Its to go in this:-

Kyosho Inferno MP777 SP2. Upgraded brake discs, chassis brace, TCD front diff (bit like limited slip)

Summer season starts 31st march. Been out the scene for 2 years and can't wait to get out there.

Make sure you get the OS 2050 pipe to go with it.
I run a V-Spec with above pipe best combo by far, they are a tad dear though.
my V-spec is also in a Kyosho but a K3 not a triple 7.
Also have a lightning 2 pro with a rossi P5 which I prefer and a full alloy T-Maxx with an RB323.
looks like I also like my RC buggies.

I was going to get a Jammin JP4 to go with it.

However, I've got my eye on an XB8EC with a RB C6. Not sure on pipe but has spektrum digital servos.

The Xray is pretty much new and is ready to go bar TX and RX which I've got (KO Type R)

I only bought the 777 as I've had one before and it was great with an older OS engine it was very reliable. Only ever gave trouble after bumping 2 finals which meant running near enough flat out for half hour before it conked out in the third.
