You may want to upgrade the car battery pack to a Ni-MIH 5 cell type(1000). This will
give more run time.
You will need to buy a few items to start the engine and run the
car.
• Use 20% nitro CAR fuel. Do not use airplane fuels, they will
over heat engine.
• Buy long glow plugs, like OFNA/PICCO Plug 51007 or MC-9
