Transmission for OS Max FP 25

[novawill72]

Hey all I have an OS Max FP 25 that I want to put into a Traxxsas Rustler, but the stock tranny doesn't match up. Anyone know if one is made or are the OS engines strictly for airplanes.

Thanks.

Yeah that engine would not work at all. You would have no speed all torque and it would do nothing but overtemp since the cooling head is too small for a ground based vehicle. SUre...OS makes plenty of engines for ground vehicles. Check out Tower Hobbies there are several .15-18 engines that will fit. There is even the OS.21TM that will fit in there (overkill) but will fit.

Thank you much. Guess I will go to work designing a powered parachute. Now on to Tower Hobbies.

The model in the video is a prebuilt and electric. I want to design and build my own and use nitro.
