Questions about electronics
Thinking of returning to RC and trying my hand at racing, however I'm wondering what the rules are with electronics.
I'd like to go with a more budget build so was looking at the Hobbyking lipos, ESC and motors, would they be legal? If not is there any budget electronics you guys would recommend. Thanks |
As you've posted in the YORCC section, I'll assume you're only racing at York for a little while:thumbsup:
Speedo and motor wise there are no restrictions in modified classes. Most sensible people with normal (rather than superstar) thumbs would recommend a speedo rated around 100amps and a motor around 10.5 for either 2 or 4wd. Plenty fast enough to be competitive in the top heats. Cells - hardcase only, 2 cell only. They do not need to be on the BRCA approved list. Think Turnigy Nanotach - great cells and cheap as chips. 1 pack is fine, 2 is better. Don't forget a charge pouch and lipo compatible charger too! |

And great, that saves me a lot on batteries got a charger from my quadcopters so just would need a pouch |
We run a class for 4wd 17.5t, but the esc must run in blinky mode. If not you would be in the the modified class against 6.5t - 10.5t motors.

2wd/17.5t would run in the 4wd class. A better option for 2wd would be the 540 sealed can class (20t Hpi saturn) Its very competitive and motor /speedo cost about £30. You can race vintage RC10 or the latest KF.
