Hey Adelaide RC Bikers,

It's time to emerge from the back parking lots of schools, shopping centres, and factory yards.
Adelaide Electric RC Club is having open day, tomorrow, 10th october, between 11am and sunset.
So, if you have an electric RC bike, and the courage to run it on a track, come down. Don't care what scale, or brand, dirt or track. You will be made most welcome.

The Parks Community Centre, Cowan st, Angle Park.

I've been itching to get on a track with my Venom bikes, and I'm going take this opportunity to show how well RC bikes go.

Andrew

Default KYOSHO HOR battery & motor

Any suggestions on a good LiPo or NiMH battery that will fit well on the Kyosho HOR battery holder, as well as a good modified motor? I'm going to use an LRP A-I Runner Reverse ESC (83010), which is capable of 18 turn motor or higher.

I had a Kyosho bike years ago, and gave it away. Couldn't tell you the best motor/battery to use for a HOR. Here's a link to another forum that might help out.

Contact one of the these guys and they will steer you in the right direction.
Or,
Get in contact with Metro models at Box Hill. One of the sales guys there is into the bikes, I think he races at Lilydale.

Planning a track day for RC bikes in Adelaide. Jan 3rd, 2010, Probably at HH. So anyone with a 1/8th track bike(Venbom,OTO) or offroad bike(ARX or Anderson) will be welcome.

Stay tuned, more info closer to the date.

Hi Chris,

We play up at Brendale with our bikes.
Wednesday night at Meakin park died out due to low numbers unfortunately.

Next year we are looking at alternating between Gilston and Brendale

We all normally converse here http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=245167

Planning a bike day, possibly at The Parks track for July 31st, 2011.

Any electric bike or scale, on-road, off-road, doesn't matter.

Send me a PM if interested.
