A few days ago, my Toki .15 finally started, but only ran about 5 seconds until it ran out of fuel.
As I was completely dry on fuel, I waited until today to buy some (RC shops are closed in weekends here), got some and finally got ready to break it in.
Hyped as I was, I went on and started roto-starting it.
It was sputtering, trying to start, so I kept trying, until...
It suddenly locked. Like something huge was blocking the cylinder.
The flywheel wouldn't budge, so I opened the backplate, and was greeted by this:
The piston LITERALLY ripped its pin off the crankshaft.
Well, that's Toki .15 for ya. Guess I'll spend my summer without RC.
