Redcat Racing 80142A Nitro R/C Starter Kit

great kit, i was looking for just the glow ignitor and the local store wanted $30 for a alkaline battery charger, but i wanted something that could last longer as i felt like i was going through alkaline like nothing with that charger, this not only had a rechargable ignitor but it came with the charger and all the other tools which is great!the refill bottle is nice plastic that doesn't seem like it will be effected by the nitro, the nozzle is a nice length to reach in to the nitro bottle and suck nitro out with, and the nipple has a satisfying waterproof seal so far.the cross tool seems to have a little piece in it that holds the glow plug when you unscrew it, that's an awesome addition! my only problem with that tool is that it has screw holes that look like you can screw some extra glow plugs into it but my glow plugs don't fit, i think its possible that there is some burr from being tapped that never got deburred and its in the way of the threads, oh welli haven't used the glow ignitor yet but it already seems to get the glow plugs alot brighter than the alkaline one i had before.

This is a nice all-in-one little kid came with everything I needed. You did to get an old RC car that I bought off a marketplace running again and tuned. The bottle is very squishy which I really like. It only holds about one tank of fuel which is kind of not so great for me. Because the truck that I have has 2 tanks. But overall, it's a great kit definitely a purchase. Head wave are them paying $35 just for the glow starter itself at my local hobby store.

I’ve used the igniter a few times so far and I’ve had no issues starting my cars. If your new and need something to start it gets the job done. The tools are decent and good to have in my bag when I go out to bash. I like the fuel bottle a lot better than my traxxas bottle my only complaint is it’s small but I knew that before I ordered it.

multi tool is super cheap, and the glow plug igniter or charger was faulty. It will never stop charging. The igniter still works, and Amazon refunded me while allowing me to keep the kit, but the only decent thing in here is the fuel bottle. The lid fits well, and it does not leak. I would suggest buying the necessities seperate as I am sure we all have screw drivers making these useless.

Decent build quality on all items. Plastics don't feel cheap and bottle plastic feels very not cheap. The axel/plug wrenches feel heavy and are definitely well made, size indicators on posts are super clean and easy to read. The Philip's seems to not be in the handle perfectly centered but works fine and it not need for much anyway. The flat head is perfect, and honestly the most needed tool after the bottle and plug ignitor. Plug ignitor feels solid and is worth the full price of the whole set on it's own at full price.

I bought this set for my boyfriends little nitrous car and boat and he’s super happy with the set, he said the light for the charger on the glow plug doesn’t show when it’s fully charged it just shows when it’s plugged in but besides that has nothing but good to say about the set

Perfect

I bought this kit for a 2006 HPI Nitro Rush I've been working on, and every part has been fantastic and incredibly useful, except for the glow plug igniter. It fell apart after about 5 starts, but still worked. Eventually, the NiMH completely died and gave out. Get a Dynamite Metered starter, and get the tools separately.
