My previous experience of Trakpowers is that they dont require regular balancing,maybe every couple of months.And i know that a couple of the club members have the balancers that they would gladly let you do it at the track. It only takes 5 seconds-Literally!
Or you could go for the demon ones which do have the white plastic balancing plug.

Ah - Superb. Thanks again for the help

to be honest, if i can make a trakpower last 7 months with only 4 balances in that time, the trakpower is clearly proven to need minimal balancing

i've even let the voltage drop to as low as 5.2v and it STILL works perfectly

I'd definitely say get a Trakpower 3600 30C, as its lower profile than the Demon, and will fit nicely under the motor mount/bulkhead of the cyclone

How much would you expect to purchase a second-hand (but hardly used) Moore Speed or Hara ed. Cyclone for?

(I'm wondering if I'm going to get this Cyclone, so looking at alternatives just in case!)

as soon as it's second hand, you take a minimum of £60-70 off the retail, regardless of how new it is, that's a general scenario

Take my TC5 for example, retails at around £290, was new, but built, so out of box etc... meant I was able to snap it up for £185
