Well, Ive decided to move up from electric to nitro. Im looking at the Savage 4.6. My reflexes arent that great and I have weak hands/arms. In your opinion what are some RC Models with the easiest engine-starting systems?

This might help or it might not but you could go to your local hobby shop get the car broken in and then buy a power start. Also after a while a pull start starts much easier from when you bought it.:D

look for a car or truck with an EZ start of some kind, they are much easier than a pull start. All you do is charge the battery and an electric motor does all the work for you. Traxxas's are especially friendly to start, but there are several others that have some sort of spin starter system.

the sportwerks reaction has a button on the transmitter that starts the glow plug and a motor that spins the shaft sharting it

Buy the car or truck you want, chances are you can find a roto start to work for it, don't let the method of starting keep you from the vehicle of your choice.
