SMD Evolution High-torque Starter box

SMD have released their new Evolution box, a more powerful light weight starter box at a reasonable price. This new box has improved twin 775 motors, which have more stalling torque than even the largest single motor boxes around. In tests this box easily started a new engine, which is the biggest test of power for any box especially in the cold winter months. Powered by twin 7.2v stick packs, or a 7A 12v battery, it also features adjustable mounting blocks, making it suitable for most 1/10th & 1/8th kits.
