O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Obsessive R/C - 02-03-2007
I'm very interested to see how the Speed compares to the JP
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Sh1nn3r - 02-03-2007
Same, the internals are very different so it should be cool to see how it runs.

No, he said same as in "Same here" Or +1 etc.

I see they are offering the magnesium head for all the other v-specs as well, is magnesium more withstanding to the vigors of escessive heat? just curious why magnesium and not titanium or beryllium? I know its light, but any other advantages to using this material over the others I previously mentioned?

theres one on ebay for 399 buy it now

Titanium doesnt like too transfer heat. Very poor in that aspect.
beryllium is very brittle and not a good choice for an engine head
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-03-2007
magnesium is basically the lightest material available
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Obsessive R/C - 02-03-2007
Lower CG weight advantage w/ the Mag head...no other benefit really.

there are some big differences in the internals on the JP, the speed did not have alot of port work done at all when u compare it to the EB or the JP, the crank is a little more worked over though. They pretty much made the vspec much smoother on the bottom and gave it some more top. Everyone is saying that the JP Recab and EB mod vspecs all have more power

Amazing that its just a three port...
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-03-2007
ya i know its ridiculous, Ive never seen a 3 port run so fast

i doubt it.

What is the flash point of magnesium?? That would be one hell of a flare up on a bad tuning error......
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-03-2007
like 600* i believe
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Sh1nn3r - 02-03-2007

O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - HAGASAN - 02-03-2007
Yep, just as i thought. It mounts just like any other engine. The rumors are silenced.
O.S. Speed VZ-B .21 - Sh1nn3r - 02-03-2007
