Ok found it...heres what is on the flier called Super Saver News says- Nitro st-15 rtr and arr. It has a 2 channel radio system, installation for radio gear, and a recoiled started .15 engine. The chassis, upper plate and shock towers are made of 6061 t6 aluminum and the rest of it is just as tough, dependable and performance minded. Independent suspension, oil shocks, glass disk brake, tough 48-pitch tranny with adjustable slipper clutch, tires, rims, body, adjustable camber links and steering tie rods they are all in and installed. The same holds true for the recoiled started, ball bearing Tower .15 abc engine; it isnt just included, its installed.
its a 2 channel radio by futaba and it has trims, led battery indicator, servo reversing and a charge jack for ni-cd use.
Specs:
Length 16.9 inches
width 11 inches
height 6.3 inches
wheelbase 10.8 inches
rtr version requires a glow starter, glow fuel, fuel bottle, finishing supplies and 12 aa batteries. arr needs 2 channel radio and all rtr items all for only :
arr version is 137.99
rtr version is 194.99
both include .15 engine
Remember this is all directly out of towerhobbies mag but I have left out some words because they were not important.
