Then the poster should put 1s in his thread, not 2s as has been done to prevent confusion, as not all know the specs of batteries.

ESC = Dualsky XC550TF-MJ in profile 1 (Default Sportsman) (Auto Cell set to 0 = Off)
Motor = Speedpassion 13.5V3 (as it came out of the box)
Servo = KO PDS-2413ICS
Receiver = FrSky TR4 (Futaba FSSST compatible)
LiPo = Turnigy A-Spec 6000mAh

If you change it to the sportman firmware (which come pre-installed on the 550mj) it is in Blinky mode. Even blinks on the speedo.

LOL... you are all talking jibberjabber....

In Belgium the GT12 class is just called "Mardave/Supastox unlimited"
It's just intended as a fun class for the winter as we are all buggy drivers. Just use your summer ESC - batteries or whatever you can find in your box. Some drive 1S, others 2S (hail to the Shorty) ESC and engine Free.... 6.5T, 8.5T, 13.5T, 21.5T ??? or whatever you want to use.....

The qualifiers will tell in what final you'll be in

this is a brca uk national class over here

The only thing i would like to see is more manufacturers offering chassis for gt12

It would be nice to have more choice

Fia gt series has more than 2 manufacturers
