Wondering if anyone here has any hands on experiance with this engine?
 
I just put one in my Revo. I haven't broken it in yet. It doesn't come with a glow plug so I put in a os lc3 hot plug. Primed it and it started on the 3rd pull. That's as far as I've gotten so far. It's supposed 2 be close 2 60 degrees here on Sat. So hopefully I can start breaking it in.
 
Oh nice ya let me know how it goes, from what I gather its a 4 port max rpm @38000 I've always thought the ofna force were great budget mills, good luck on saturday man tty.
 
It's a lightly modded Force .28 with a different cooling head. A good engine, especially for the price. Will it keep up with a Picco Boost .28 5TR, Novrossi .28-7T or OS .28 XZ? No, but they also cost a lot more, and tend to be a little more finicky on the tune.
 
If I wasn't on a budget I would toss in another os
 
I just dropped one in my latest revo build and I'm struggling for time to finish the break in atm
I put a mccoy mc 59 and with a bit of preheat started 3rd pull also
I also have the .26 red dot I another revo and have noticed they are 2 totally different engines I think the .28 being a force variant it will be much easier to tune and no pesky leaking carb
