The Blue Flame Engine Heater from ProTek R/C uses the same preheating technology used by Formula 1, IndyCar, and NASCAR teams to heat nitro engines to 140–160°F (60–70°C) in just about 10 minutes. This brings sensitive engine components such as the crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, and cylinder liners to optimal operating temperature and protects them from unnecessary wear.

Preheating the engine makes starting significantly easier, reduces wear on the starter box system, lowers fuel consumption, and shortens the warm-up phase on the track. It's also ideal for new or recently rebuilt engines, as the heat temporarily reduces mechanical pinch.
