Fast, Consistent Engine Starts

The Tamiya 41068 Engine Starter Box is engineered to simplify starting glow-engine RC cars. Its pair of high-torque motors provide the necessary drive to spin the flywheel and initiate combustion; just seat the car on the rubber wheel and press down to engage.

Wide Compatibility with Adjustable Mounts

With adjustable brackets and three selectable rubber wheel positions, the starter can be tailored to different flywheel sizes and chassis arrangements. It works with a range of glow-powered cars, including TG10-Mk.2 variants.
