All Of You That Are Having Trouble With The 21 Ofna Drop In Motor, If Your Warranty Is Still In Effect You Can Get It Replaced With The New 26 Drop In Motor. Just Send It To The Company, They Are Now Admitting That There Are Large Flaws In The Old Engine And It Will Be Replaced For Free! I Just Found Out That My New 26 Came In Today At The Hobby Shop Cause I Had Them Send The Engine Back Three Times And They Are Finally Taking Trade Ins! I can't Wait, I Get My T Maxx Back On Saturday Or Sunday.
 
Wow that is good news! I will look for any links or ways for everyone to communicate to the factory.

Thanks!!!

There is a tidbit on the matter but it looks like you will need to contact OFNA on the matter. Good Luck!
 
I hope I can....mines been a bitch to tune from day 1 and haven't run a gallon on it yet...it's more of a novelty RC now.....I am leaking oil from the front bearing and that's probably where my leak is under load but on the bench I can't make it pull in hard enough.....when I bench test the lil PITA it runs great...I put it in the truck and it air leaks after it warms up and I'm trying to go WOT (which I actually have limited to 3/4).....this way I can put it up for sale w/ a brand new engine and maybe get a decent ammount of cash for it....
 
I'm wondering if I should send mine in....... It seems to run fine, but a new mill sounds awful nice. I have the one with the purple head. Is this the same mill you'll are talking about?
 
yeah but they made blue and puple heads....someone said also green but I never saw that color....the purple ones are supposed to have less airleak issues....don't know why cause they look the EXACT same to me but they do seem to have fewer issues w/ tuning from the ones I've seen

HEY BUSTED GEARS, IF IT RUNS GOOD LEAVE IT ALONE. WHO KNOWS HOW THE NEW ENGINE WILL HOLD UP.

HEY GUYS WHAT I HAD WAS THE PURPLE HEAD OFNA/PICCO MAX 21. THE ONE WITH THE BLUE HEAD ISTHE PICCO P2. THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THIS MOTOR:TWO MORE THAT ARE SIMILAR TO IT ARE THE OFNA/PICCO 21 SMALLBLOCK AND THETEAM ORION WASP 21 SMALLBLOCK ONLY THE HEADS ARE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. I've NEVER SEEN THE GREEN ONES EITHER.
 
SORRY, caps lock is on when i turn on the computer and i forget to shut it off sometimes.
 
maybe your comptuer's trying to tell you something.

I'm thinking I might buy another piston/sleeve for it then.... chances are, by the time it comes for me to rebuild, they'll stop carrying the set for the .21
 
I got my truck back yesterday with the 26 in it and boy is that thing insane! Starts right up idles like a kitten and I havent gotten it to full throttle going down the driveway without it flipping over. I'll accellerate slowly until I get to second gear and step it up a bit but once you get even close to full throttle in second gear she's gonna lift off the ground. The guy at the hobby shop says this is the ballsiest maxx hes ever seen. ANYBODY WANNA RACE? :hammer: :hammer:
 
OH CRAP, i forgot!



:jk: of course i did!

My body is beat to crap now since yesterday at the lawnmower races (dad got third, brother got fourth) i got the maxx to top speed and the tires were balooned like I've never seen before andit lifted off the ground and it did cartwheels for about 200 feet. i really need a wheelie bar!
 
THE LAWNMOWERS OR THE TRUCK! I dont know if i can use my vid camera and put vids on the computer. My cousin is a tech head i could ask him.
