Fastrax Roto Start Hand Starter + SH Back Plate (Fits Carnage NT With Modification)

Brand: Fastrax

Part Number: FAST565


SORRY, THIS ITEM IS DISCONTINUED AND NO LONGER AVAILABLE.


Why not contact our team to see if an alternative is available?






Convenient quick and easy starting has arrived with the new Roto-Start system from Fastrax. The ideal immediate upgrade from a pullstart system, this allows you to start vehicles that may not be ideally suited to box start systems. Ideal for vehicles such as the FTX Rampage and Outrage where the engine is mounted a little higher and away from the chassis. Fits SH engines and others (check fitment dimensions online for your backplate). Supplied with rotostart backplate assembly.

Requires a 7.2v battery that is housed inside the unit body.

Please Note: The Fastrax Roto Start is not a universal fit for all engines on the market. Please check the measurements listed below before fitting.

Centre Hex Housing 12mm size.

Distance between the centre of the fixed mounting holes is 38mm from top right to bottom left (27mm top right to bottom right).

Hex shaft measures 6.5mm across flats.

Note: Will fit FTX Carnage NT but a little competent modelling is required, as the backplate hits the chassis, so the engine needs to be shimmed up around 2mm

Tech Note: Starting any engine should be done in short, sharp bursts. These are NOT designed to be "held on" for more than 15+ seconds at a time - doing so will cause heat build up and gear damage.

Hi does this work with the HPI Savage X4.6
Asked by James Starkey on 26th December 2018

There are a few different versions of that Savage so we can't advise fully.  However, if you measure your pullstart, we list the dimensions on this starter as:

  • Centre Hex Housing 12mm size.
  • Distance between the centre of the fixed mounting holes is 38mm from top right to bottom left (27mm top right to bottom right).
