I'm still working on putting together equipment for GT12. Are we trying to stick with the BRCA approval lists for motor, battery, esc? I thought we were but the Trackstar Gen2 is not BRCA approved... frustrating...

3.1 13.5 brushless - Any motor listed in any of the Electric Board Homologation List for Brushless Spec Motors (13.5)
as updated from time to time.

4 Definition of a Zero-timing Speed Controller
4.1 Speed controllers may not be equipped with any form of automatic or programmable timing advance. If this feature
is available on the particular speed controller it must be disabled and placed in an approved mode - i.e. the
"ROAR blinking LEDs mode." Brushless Speed Controllers built without automatic or programmable timing
advance will be allowed. The BRCA 12th Committee will provide a list of eligible speed controllers. Details of the
requirement for the approved mode are contained in Appendix 2 – Zero-Timing Brushless Speed Controllers – and
this requirement must be met for a speed controller to be eligible for racing in relevant GT12 Classes.
4.2 When using a sensorless speed controller/brushless motor combination Rule 4.1 does not apply.

5.1 Any cells conforming to the current Electric Board 1S Stick and Saddle LiPo battery list as updated from time to
time. All cells used in any competitions MUST be hard-cased. Soft cases or no cases are not allowed.
