Some second hand info.

My neighbor has one. He said it was great until the pull start broke.
He said it was common because it is the same pull start from a .15.

They are not selling replacements because they are going to change it over to a roto-start.
As of about a week ago, they were not available and the first ones were going to go on new units anyway.

It is a paper weight until that happens. He normally deals with Als hobby shop, they can probably clarify.
