The APR Turbex L-APR100 12V DC RC Model Engine Starter is a vintage, heavy-duty field accessory engineered to crank over medium-to-large nitro and glow engines.
Core Features & Specifications
High-Torque Performance: Designed to reliably spin over high-compression glow engines (typically up to .61 cubic inch sizes or larger) without stalling.
Rugged Construction: Features a signature robust metal casing alongside an ergonomic, impact-resistant plastic handle housing an integrated thumb-trigger switch.
Universal Starter Cone: The front aluminium drive cup includes a heavy-duty, reversible rubber insert tailored to securely grip aircraft spinners or surface flywheels.
Power Connectivity: Outfitted with thick, low-resistance power leads terminating in large crocodile clips for direct connection to standard 12V lead-acid field batteries.

As an older, legacy tool from the peak era of nitro RC modelling, these units are highly prized by collectors and traditional hobbyists for their exceptional build quality and longevity compared to modern, plastic-heavy alternatives.

This starter is brand new, in its original plastic bag and box. It has never been used.

It can be posted at the buyer’s expense.
