I bought a Mugen xr4 works buggy from a friend.. He gave me a starter for it that is the same as the one that I use for my airplanes.. Is there some wheel that I can get for it to start the buggy or do I need to get a bump starter box?
 
You can get a wheel for that. I used to use a setup like that back when I got my first nitro. Trust me, get the bump box; it is a TON easier. One with twin 550's will work just fine.

I am planning to get a starter box, just wanted to make sure the handheld starter would work in the mean time.. Thanks for you help..
 
No problem. Just make sure the rubber part of the wheel is securely attached, or you be chasing it all afternoon.

(mine would fling off all the time, and hit the ground spinning)
