2008 Off road, Lipo
will it happen for regionals and nationals?
wada u all tink? |
i hope it does happen :)
|
Would be nice.
|
can't see it myself
|
cant see it happening either.. too many cars that cant use them.
|
Nope me neither.
|
got to get construction rules first, then a lot of cells will be illegal...
They go bang you know (had to put that it.... roflol) |
did you all hear about the exibition class at the US Mod nationals?
LiPo class for their trucks, 20 minute finals, most of the factory drivers raced it, I quite like the idea of long finals... ? |

no tc is is designed to run 5 cells but they are!! |
if it were to happen, then there would need to be new scrutineering processes in place and strict weight regulation.
|
lipo would make my life so much easier at regonals where i race 2 clsses on the same day.

There are not that many cars that can't use them - probably only the X-Factory cars and the Atomic Carbon Car.
You can get Li-Po saddle pack cells, and they fit inside an X10, so if they fit in that they will fit in the other cars that run saddle packs. As for the x-factory and atomic carbon cars, I would guess that those manufacturers are either working on a chassis that will accept Li-Po packs easily or will be able to engineer a solution. Because the Li-Po's are so much lighter than Ni-Mih I think that the weight distribution issue could be addressed with the minimum of fuss. If the customer demands cars that will run li-po, and i am sure they will in a very short space of time, if they become "legal" then the car manufacturers will listen and they will release chassis/conversions to accept li-po. Either that or loose business. Personally, I would love to see Li-Po's made legal in off-road. I love 'em! ;) |
Max amps can produce Lipo's that fit the S4 ;)
|
the x6 can take lipo i believe

true, so i guess irt would be a comprimise then,
|
I don't see why you couldn't do that - you need to make up around 200g if you run the team orion "carbon" cells, so you may as well put the weight where it is central, i suppose.
