Hello,

We are leaning on the Trinity Spachett Edition but we have one more question. We saw that it's 4 cell chassis. We have been informed that the races will be 6 cell! Is there a 6cell chassis available? Is it like the 4 cell (with purple color)? :)



Thank you

Nick

The older Trinity Spachett Edition is a 6cell chassis and yes it has purple metal flake graphite.

nnick, if you are going to race 6-cell I think that the best car to get would be the 12L3 or the CRC 6 pack. If you want to run a Trinity in a 6 cell class you would have to get the older car. If you do end up getting the older Trinity I would recomend that you upgrade to the newer rear pod. Otherwise I like the Associated car. Corally does make a 6 cell car too.

Hey guys, what would be your choice for a new stock motor. The local indoor track is about to open soon and I am shopping for a new motor. The tracks layout is appx 40x70ft. Thanks

Battery question
 
What batteries do you guys run?? I cycled one of my 2 packs last night on the T35, but pack charges to 560 ma :( Bummened that I need new pack now. I have one HV pack that I have used since April, gives 355 sec @30 and 468@20. Do you guys use HV or UMH cells?? New to 1/12.

Hydromatic99: I am new to this, but I use P2K2, GM3 and Hellfire with narrowed brush.

I have had really good results with my green machine

Hey guys, I have read through about 80% of this thread, and have learned a lot so far. I am just getting started in 1/12th scale. I have ran just about everything else r/c, but this is all new to me.
Here is my ride , got it for $50 with the steering servo (Hitec 225BB) and 3 3000 Reedy matched packs. (I know they are old, I will be getting some new ones for racing. Those will be practice packs. I am told the car is a L2, and I plan on converting it mostly to a L3 since not much is different. I would like to use the 3 screw hubs I think. Those wheels and tires are trashed, so I need to buy new anyways. Just need to get used to it and learn all the little tips and tricks to setting up the car right. I look forward to learning.

If anyone is interested, I'm selling a 12L3 (with about 20-30 runs on it, raced 4 times), with a Reedy 12x3MW (cut only 2 times) and a JR mini race servo (3750 I think- it's the fast, non digital one) for $135 O.B.O.

If anyone is interested, email me @ [email protected]

actionrc, that car you have looks like a 12LC, for you to get the 3 bolt hubs and wheels you need to get the newer axel too i think, if you are going to be racing on carpet i wouldn't recomend getting the L3 chassis, i would use the one that you have. If you are going to race on asphault you might want to get the newer chassis. Good looking car, i like the old school white plastic.

Action-RC.com 10-28-2002 05:02 PM

Thanks for the tips. I was planning on getting the full IRS axle and hub kit for it. I do plan on racing on carpet, and have heard from others as well that the L3 isn't the best carpet chassis. Yeah, I think I am going to dye the white parts blue lol.

Tigger.....guess what....Im bringn out the Trinity car this weekend are you racing or practicing any where this weekend? I should be at Venture saturday and at Trackside sunday LMK.

Does anyone use the GM V12wc in there car with a Rec. pack? I know that it does not require one but was wondering if anyone has used one with it before.

newracer 10-29-2002 09:32 PM

a guy I race with uses a rx pack with his v12, he uses 5 tiny 50mah cells

litespeed-dom 10-29-2002 10:36 PM

Kevin K, I have a GM V12 wc and I ran 5 50mah-cells receiver pack before. It worked great, I ran it because I was running KO digital servo. But with the new GP3300, I won't be needing the receiver pack anymore.
