Thanks Guys for all the advice, I did pop to Faversham for a look around and apparently the cars popular there are:
XRay
Schumacher
AE
Followed by Serpent and Yokomo. Apparently 2WD is more popular than 4WD.
For now I think I will stick with 4WD to get back into it but might also try a 2WD alongside the 4WD.
So keeping my eyes out for probably the top 3 makes (although the Serpent sounds interesting).
Moving on to Electrics the last time I raced it was all Nicads and Brushed motors and pretty basic ESC.
So advice would be great on the following for 1/10th 4WD:
Looking at propulsion I think ideally a ESC and Motor Combo would be a good idea (sensored) probably the equivalent of a 7-8Turn motor - maybe higher. Brand and model (ESC + Motor combo) wise I really haven't much of a clue which would be good for club racing I hear good things about Hobbywing any Idea what model would be best. Don't want to spend a fortune just a good reliable club package to get back into the Sport but could be competitive once I get a lot better????
Any suggestions on a good steering servo for 4wd 1/10th?
Lastly any good suggestions on the Batteries now Lipo is all the rage and much longer run times I guess most go for a shorty but what would be a good brand and Mah's capacity for a good run times and how many would a need for a club meet (1 -2 or more) and how quickly do these recharge?
Thanks guys sorry for all the questions but I want to try and get my head around this as it all seems very different to when I last raced and getting the electrics right seems important as I don't want to invest in poor quality or uncompetitive equipment (at least in the long run as I probably be quite poor to start with
).
Looking forward to your recommendations and suggestions.
