Frequently Asked Questions
This is an EVO specification engine designed for performance and competitive use, so it's best suited to drivers with nitro engine experience rather than complete beginners. If you're new to nitro, we'd recommend starting with an entry-level engine first.
This is a .21 nitro engine, so it runs on nitro fuel (a petrol/oil/nitromethane blend). Consult the manual for the exact fuel specification and oil ratio recommended by Nova for optimal performance.
The product is the engine unit itself. You will need to source a compatible pipe (Nova recommends the Nova 2182 Off-Road with either 50mm or 55mm manifold), fuel, and a carburettor if not already installed—check the full product listing or contact us for a complete kit option.
This 3.49cc .21 nitro engine operates between 4,000 and 45,000 rpm and is designed for 5-port buggy applications. It weighs 350g and has a 59.5mm head diameter; confirm compatibility with your specific buggy chassis before purchasing.
The EVO specification features extensive refinements including a DLC-coated crankshaft, steel ball bearings, HCP-coated cylinder ports, and a sintered alloy piston—all designed to improve efficiency, performance, and engine longevity based on feedback from team drivers and users.
