I have already gotten a Clocked Jammin JPX-21 Plus and I have read so many good things about it and seen it run amazing (youtube).

TBH this is the first i've been recommended to run a reedy motor.

Riverview looks sweet, one suggestion: Run a second spring to hold your exhaust on, then you never have to worry about it ever coming off! My .02 cents

Thanks Mac when I come across another 1 I will.

Update on the engine I just ran it for the first time today and I can already see the potential. With 20% fuel ...

I don't have my hands on 30% yet so ill have to run 20% till then.
I've only touched the needles abit aswell.

PS: Competition heat engine warmer works great.
