what do u guys think of the axial .28,i am looking at the .28 pro or the .28 spec 1 and what is the turbo button head😀Jjam:
 
CHRIS I am running the axial 28 rr spec 1

very nice mill.

as far as the turbo button head, I'm not sure what it is for.
 
Both versions are good. Crash runs the .28 spec1 and he said lots of good things about it. I run the old version, just the regular .28. I love mine as well; Axials are very good engines. A turbo button head is a replacement for the regular button head. With the turbo button head it allows you to run turbo plugs with will give you more performance over regular glow plugs.

No problem. Why don't cha take a seat? Take a seat...right there. Did you know how old she was? 21? Okay, well I have teh transcript right here. M'kay. Oh she said she was 14, not 21? Why are you here? Oh, just hangin out? Hold old are you? Your 41, and what's that in your pocket? Condoms, that's intent. Lock 'Em Up Boys!

I'm Chris Haaaaannnnnnsssssoooonnnnnn



On Topic-You should properly seal your Axial if you choose to get one. You will have an easier time tuning and the temps should be lower.

Chris Hansen the ultimate site moderator.

fx you got it wrong, Chris Hansen says, "your free to go."

then the cops grab them outside.....................lol
 
both great engines. ive heard a lot of great things about them. i went for the axial .32 just because it had a bit of extra power.
4x4
 
Do u break anything with the .32 i heard it is hard on the drivetrain
 
What's there to explain? If you gear it for top end it will be harder on the drive train. The more power the engine has the lower I gear them, to "tame" them if you will.
 
i have yet to have problems and I'm running 16:49 it runs great. it makes the drive cups get a bit batterd but is still runs great.
4x4
 
I to run the .28RR. Its got great power. I have about 3/4 of a gal threw it so its just getting totally broke it. It is having some issues with hight temps. But up to about monday this week all I had sealed was the back plate and everything on the carb but the needles. I have now pulled the needles out to fine that the HSN O-Ring was twisted so I'm sure thats my problem. I have now green slimed them and hopefully will get it out this weekend to see the resalts.
 
Axial makes very strong and reliable motors in my opinion. I use the 32 and also run the 16/49 combo and it works nice. It helps to have long plates as well. My son has the 28 and so do other guys on our team. Never had a problem; except when Danny landed on the head and broke the case in 3 pieces-ouch!
 
Which would be better the LRP .28 Spec 3 or the Axial .28RR. There is only $10 difference in it. I know it's the impossible to answer question, I'm thinking the axial as it is supposedly a fairly simple engine to break in and tune.
 
I have the Axial so I have to be bias but I have heard that the LRP is unbeatable which I will probably try it next unless there is something else amazing by then. If you get the hint these engines are like computers there is always something new comming out.

I have also heard from some guys that have run both that the LRP has been easier to tune and will hold a tune much better than the RR. My RR was a PITA to break in atleast get it to tune out after the first few tanks.

I'm not trying to turn others away form the RR as it is a very good engine and I would deffanetly buy again.

parker #2 the tapered part i get i am a diesel tech and we use them alot,but i don't get what makes them better and what is the diff in price
 
Something I found posted by a guy named Derek B.

Turbo heads are better for on-road. The plugs are more sensitive to vibration and dirt so in off-road where the plugs gets beaten by the vibration and jumps and bumps the could fail more often. Also since they increase top end performance, most of the time they won't help.

If you're just fooling around in the street and want a little extra power up top it might me a good idea. For off-road I've always had better luck with regular plugs.

He is one of the guys for Xtreme RC magazine. Didn't mean to talk down to ya, just trying to keep it simple. Hope this helps out. As to the price I don't know, never caught my interest. Search some online stores.
