Which onroad cars run the same electronics as a 1/10 2wd buggy?
Hello,
I'd like to begin onroad racing to improve my skills during the winter. I'm racing 1/10 2wd buggy for now with a Cougar SV2. This is what I'm using: - 540 size motor from 7.5 to 10.5 turns - 2s lipos in saddle (2x1S) from 4000 to 5200mah - standard size servo - 1/10 ESC Is there any onroad class out there that runs the same electronics and could be driven indoors too?

Most of them as far as i know. My motor and radio gear has been in many a car before. For instance the one i`m running in my truck, has been in a previous truck and 2 buggys before it. i just change the motor pinion to suit the car its in.

on road classes
not true plenty pan car classes run 10.5 in boosted and blinky.1/12TH pan cars run 1s with 10.5 blinky, WGT10 pan car run 10.5 boosted with 1s So 1/2 your saddle packs will do fine .

This is the track I'd like to run on, it's not far at all from where I live:
I would love to try a 1/12 pan car, what do you think? Does a 1S lipo from a 2S saddle pack fit in a 1/12 pan car? It's just to drive there when it's too cold/ rainy, for the pleasure. They have a 17.5 challenge too but pan cars are not allowed

Just run the most popular class they run out there!
BTW where is that track? I usually run at Nuclea Mol: http://www.rc-club-nuclea.be/ They run: Touring (10.5 boosted and modified unlimited on 2s) Mardave/supastox (anything goes motorwise, esc, max 2s) 1/12 pan car ((10.5 boosted and modified unlimited on 1s) World GT 1/10 Short course truck F1 More info/rules on the site above. |

http://www.funcarmodelisme.be/ I just had a feedback on rctech from a guy who drove there with his 1/12 pan car in 10.5 and he basically said it was the best class for it. The feel of a pan car with 2wd and foams is very different from a TC, it won't be my main category. I want to run ionroad to improve my skills and for the fun factor essentially. I've heard about nuclea on rctech, I would be interested in both WGT 1/10 class and 1/12 10.5 boosted. The only thing is that it's 2h away from where I live.

The main problem will be getting your ESC to run on 1S, unless it is designed to run on 1S you will usually need a separate receiver pack or a voltage booster.

Looking at that track, I'd be tempted to try a GT12 car for it's smaller size and easier handling. You can use all your 1/10th O-R kit in that, but will need a booster or receiver pack to work with 1S. GT 12 has room for a standard servo, and no centre-shock so your saddle 'half' will fit with a bit of packing to stop it rattling around in the space for 4C or 1S. HTH |

GT12 cars sound interesting , what kind of ESC/ motor do they run?
I saw Mardave and Supastox, are there other cars out there?

In Mol, most of us run a 10.5T on 2s, different brands esc and motors. Plenty of speed!

I'm leaning towards 1/12 because I just love pan cars but they don't share much electronics with my 1/10 2wd buggy.. I could use a 1/10 pan car but it's a bit too big maybe for an indoor track. What do you think? I want a car that is the most precise possible with massive grip even if it's more difficult to drive.
