Flash Point FP02 .21 3-Port Competition Nitro Buggy Engine Combo (Ceramic Rear Bearing) w/FP2500 Pipe

A very strong engine, very easy to tune, I get around 11minutes on the track. Best purchase I've made.

Great value on this engine. I recommend this to anyone looking for a high quality engine at a reasonable price.

This combo is a good deal for the money. The motor was a pain in the rear to get broken in. Very very tight compression even heated up. Be prepared for that. Tuned the motor just based on sound and it was darn near the recommended specs. Only ran about half a gallon of fuel through it but overall I'm pleased.

Great engine for first timers and seasoned hobbyist looking to get into nitro and that would prefer kits over RTR. Great price with even greater performance. My son uses this on his 1/8 truggy and after this past weekend, we had several people ask us what engine we use, saw people in our pits checking out our rig, or simply commenting on how fast the car is. Very competitive and we have no regrets for choosing this over the more expensive options. Would like to try OS Speed some day, but we kept up or even out paced those who were running the top tier engines.

I’ve been told this is a great engine for a reasonable price even though I do think all the engines in general are way too expensive. Not to mention wheels and tires which are definitely overpriced. I go through tires in 1 day sometimes. It’s ridiculous right? So far the engine runs great. I just finished breaking it in and the last tank I ran the performance was awesome. Like the engine a lot. It’s a good buy for sure

Have about 3 fuel bottles through this engine in a Tekno truggy. Plan to run in an NB48 2.1 soon to compare to that car's main race engine. Break-in was a breeze after having EBIS done by Drake. Minor adjustments needed to get it to idle away, then minor leaning to be able to run it around the track. It really started to come alive in it's last session, even not fully run-in or leaned out. If the way this pulls a truggy around so far is any indicator, it's definitely a good buy. Get 'em when they're in stock! Pipe seems nice, especially for the cost in the bundle. Bottom end grunt is there, plenty of it... top end as well seems to already be really good... runtime already over 7 min, so I have no doubt in the right conditions and leaned out it will easily make 8min with a bit of fuel to spare. I'll try to update after we have more time on it, but so far I cannot fault this thing in any way.

So far break in has been really smooth. The engine sounds great and tuning has been great. I will throw an update on this engine after I've got a gallon of fuel through it. I have two techno nb48 2.0 one with the Rhonda Drake OS engine and the other with the flashpoint. I will be doing a track comparison tomorrow when I go racing.

Incredible engine for the price. Very snappy, easy to tune and makes great low to mid-range power. This is an economically priced motor with high end performance. The only criticism I can give this is that it is very thirsty and drains a tank quite quickly.

I've raced this engine at least 12 events and bashed it a couple times and it still going strong! I don't even after run oil it lol. I had it broken in by Drake so break in no issue for me. The pinch is no issue. Just wish I could get a little more reliable idle, but has only flamed out in one qualifier. I'm still giving it a five because I'm no pro tuner!

this engine can do whatever is asked of it. i find it holds a tune great and runs great on 25 nitro or 30 percent nitro. low to middle is where this engine excells. i would defently recomend this package to any level nitro buggy racer.

What is the pre heat temp ? I pre heat to about 200 degrees and it is runs good , but below that it doesn’t run good ? What temperature is your engine at ? Thanks
