Exotic--with jack for sauce-carpet is crc ozite(new this year).I honestly didn't think they would work either-- but they do.I had to borrow a set to try before ordering any.I have some tan compound 35 to try on the rear but I don't think i will need them.Some rounds I don't even sauce them(blacks).
I'm thinkin that the rubber put down by the TC's(the dominant class's 13.5,17.5 rubber spec tire-- jaco blue)has some effect. not sure but maybe-;anyone else?

If use ICharger can setup full charge to 4.3V !

And go up in smoke-
you sell a lot of batts this way--lol

What is the weight of this battery? More capacity generally comes at the expense of more weight. How much more is this compared to th 4950 mAh battery?

Maybe you two should pit next to each other and share a fire extinguisher?

Not entirely true... for LiPo, if you set the cell count and capacity correctly, it will only allow you to charge up to 1C. The Checkpoint TC-1030 will allow you to go up to 2C for LiPo. For NiCD and NiMH, you can go to 8A on the ICE, 10A on the TC-1030.

Since nobody has answered yet, WELCOME TO 1/12th SCALE! Of your two choices, I would suggest the CRC, but that is my personal opinion. Also look at the BMI DB12RR and the Speedmerchant Cars. Checkout http://www.speedzoneusa.com/estore/i...a788a742341970 for your batteries. On CRC's web site, here, http://www.teamcrc.com/crc/modules.p...article&sid=27 scroll all the way to the bottom for 1/12th tire recommondations. As for gearing, talk to people in the pits and see what they are running. I like the looks of the CRC bodies, but the Protoform Speed 12B seesm to be good for stock class.
Hope this helps! Enjoy!

DO you have see Market around 3 months will updated to new ver. ?
your battery used some months IR was high ,
we also for sell , change new one to keep power.

sorry not have 4950SI .

The SMC 4950SI weighs 137.6g.

Charging to more than 4.2V would be against BRCA rules in the UK so there's not really any point in having a charger capable of doing it.

Trev

I was implying that you'd be "tricking" the charger into thinking that there was a larger capacity battery being charged to use charge rates higher than 1C. Again, it could be done, but it's not a recommended practice.

now back to the rc4less orange tires, i run 1/12 13.5 with a tekin...smc batt...what tires work, the exotic rubber or the natural...and what shores are being used, thanks never used these before, they look promising

I run at Horsham-I use exotic black rears 45 shore,exotic black fronts 50 shore.Jack for sauce,only the rims are orange,not the compound.I run 13.5 crc gen xl and a Bmi db12rr.If you are not too far from Horsham come up to play.the track is fairly large(100x40)the atmosphere is laid back,=FUN but competitive.
Jeff Cuffs,Shreffler,Fairtrace,Donnie Lia--ect ect run here regularly.If ya wanna go fast ya gotta see these guys.Some off the fastest guys and niceist guys on planet r/c.Check out the Horsham thread on the racing forum
