Default Moved to Singapore, was is most popular in Singapore?

Hi All,

I just moved from New York to Singapore three weeks ago. I attended the Formula Drift Comp this past weekend and saw the RC drift track with a bunch of people participating. I'm not going to lie I got very excited. I'd like to get into RC here in Singapore but I have a few questions. I think this will be a good thread to all new joiners as I am really starting from the beggining. I have owned many electric cars growing up (nothing comp grade though). I would really like to get into Nitro onroad or nitro off road. From what I've heard (from Hobby Link in orchard), Onroad is the most popular with the most places to run. Currently I am leaning towards the Xray NT1, as I would like to build it to help me learn, but I want something that is going to challange me. So after the long introduction, here are my questions:

1.) Thoughts on on-road vs off-road Nitro RC kits?
2.) Places to run the Onroad Nitro 1/10.
3.) Any clubs to join that get together (even in parking lots) just to hang out and enjoy the cars.
4.) Best place to purchase.
5.) Can you order online?

Thanks for any help and advice!

Mike

1) On-road & off-road both have their good points. It all depends on which u prefer.
4) X-ray can be bought from Far East Plaza at Orchard Road. For off-road 1/10, BK at Bottletree. 1/8 nitro can be bought at Swan Models at Orchard Plaza, Hobbylink at Turf City. Which brand names do you prefer?

5) Again, depending on what you want to run. Most brands can be bought at the rc shops here. If not, some can order for you.

Default Can nimh support 60a continues current for ezrun 60a esc?

Hi guys,

I am wondering my BL 5.5t motor with ezrun 60A is not performing as it is.

I am using nimh, china brand
(about 2250-2400mah I think, tested on my muchmore CM charger).

So I am doing some research in batteries discharge rate.

I can't find any nimh that can support 60A Continues Dischage. The highest Sub-C Cell support only up to 40A.

Does it means, I have to give up using nimh?

Use lipos. I'm sure most packs can give you more that 60A continuous discharge

The 4PK radio can use the R603 receivers as well which are intended for the 3PK/3PKS, but the radio have to be switch to C1 Mode, instead of the R604 C2 Mode, the mode and resolution of the two radios were different.

The last time when I have my 3PKS radio, it only have the C1 Mode, so the R604 receiver cannot be use for the 3PK/3PKS radio.
