Hello all, this is my first post of likely many.

to start, thank you for taking the time to look at my post.


Ihave uploaded a few pictures for you to look at. if you want any more details close-ups of anything please let me know.

I was told this was a Duratrax Nitro Evader but after doing some research i don't think it is. Not knowing enough about this hobby yet i look to some of the more experenced people to help me figure out the model so i can start getting the parts i need to fix it up.

I got this machine for free so if it costs me a few bucks to get running i'm not too worried. It looks like it's been pilfered for the servos and few other items. I also have no clue where anything is supposed to go.

I found some great manuals on duratrax's website but the nitro models all have pull starts, this one doesnt. the engine also says M 1Z on i think.

Thanks for you time and any help would be very appreciated.

Steve

Thank you for the quick response.

I am assuming that this will be very hard to find parts for?

I gather towerhobbies is a good site for parts, but no MST-1 parts show up on the search.

Could any one point me in the right direction to find some teardown / rebuild documentation and perhaps a website or two that has parts? would any other models be a close enough match that the parts would work?

Also, if anyone knows of any good RC hobby stores in the Kitchener, London,Hamilton, Mississauga region i would love to know and go check them out.

Thanks,
Steve

Should be enough to get started. But ask people on other maybe Mugen specific forums to see if they have a complete user manual with exploded views and stuff like that.

There are some parts on eBay but generally most parts are available. In terms of local hobby stores, I don't think you can find parts there. I know Advance RC in Scarborough/Markham carries Mugen parts, you might want to give them a call to see if they order parts for you.

I don't think Hobby Hobby(Big one in Mississaga) carries Mugen parts, as well as Big Boys with Cool Toys.

http://www.muchhobby.com/shopping/index.php in Richmond Hill has Mugen Parts.. You can call them...
