Is there an common electric starter which can start different types of nitro engines from different companies even?
could anybody elaborate on the performance difference between a 3.5cc and a 4.6cc monster truck?
What is a good nitro monster truck to start with?
Where do i buy the recommended truck in India?

You can use a hand held starter,which will start pretty much every car,or a starter box whic is a little more expensive but both are basically the same thing.

What truck in particular are you talking about. Obviously 4.6 would be faster,but would also be high in fuel consumption. Traxxas 3.3 is an exception.

Good truck? It all depends on your budget,specify it.

Buying from dealers within the country is the most suited option for you.

Thank you for the reply.
Budget would be around 25k
How much mileage can one expect from an rc monster truck 4.6c vs 3.5c? i would like some numbers!

one more question, do i have to modify a normal pull crank starter car in any way to use this starter?

You might wanna see the MTA 4  S28 4.6 for around 26k.
3.3 cc last for about 25 minute,while a 4.6cc would last 15 mins.
Speed of both may be equal but the torque would be much greater in the 4.6

You can buy MTA 4 online at rcskyhobby.com or make a store visit to modelart located in bangalore

It depends very much on how the car is tuned, the runtime can double in a good vs bad tune.

Most monster trucks chassis don't allow flywheel access from below. So starter from JRH may not work as it is flywheel based.  If you are taking about drill start, all MT come with starter.

Sorry,i forgot that,since i have never used a box with MT.
I was being specific about buggies and truggies.
