Default Lightweight "Thin4" | RC10B4 FT

Nothing special, but i got kind of bored..so i took some parts that i have here in the hoby room some spare chassis,arms,electronics so on..

See how low light i can get this "Thin4", no plans to race, since it is waaay to light..i hope

Heaviest of the El will be the Xerun60A sensor and Novak 380 - 8.5T
Rest will be mini servo
Hardcase CS 1900lipo can handle 114A burst..

I will use Orion 26mm lightweight El touring rims, with dito rally/pin from schumi

you'll need quite the mini servo, I'd think a low pro servo would be much better, even though you don't plan on racing it, you'll still want it to steer

hey MR.P
Looks Like fun .

if your going to put a 1/10th motor . maybe a one cell lipo could do the trick .

ie : 4200mAh 3.7V Carbon LiPo battery, for 1/12-scale cars

Tried this myself, and using a 1 cell lipo with a 3.5t motor gives reasonable power in a car on the weight limit, but imo isn't worth the trouble.

If you go this route you need a receiver pack. - The 1/12 style regulators don't give enough oomph.

But the main drawback is the amount of time to charge as the lower voltage means you take a lot more out of the pack than with 2s. You can't get away with one battery unless you are running at a very large meeting.

A 2s micro pack like the one pictured in the car, or low capacity full size 2s pack such as orions 2400 which only weighs 150g is a better option. But it will depend on your local rules as to what you can do.

Awesome Thomas

How about 4wd front tyres on the back to loose a little more weight ?

and for motor, how about using something like Dan has in his Chunk, its 400 size so can use stock 48dp pinions too

or maybe shorten the chassis, change the wishbones and call it a Micro !!
