Scale

[Terry Keeley]

I believe that was Ken's squire that was disallowed.

You should get him to dot the I's and cross the T's and come on back for the oval, it's only 25.918 sec.

Don's SAW record would be a little more challenging tho at 100.089 mph!

I was at the console when Don set that record. It was pretty cool seeing a Scale running that fast.

Here you go Terry D. We'll just adopt this. (found on a IW FE Scale thread)

This is what is allowed per the R/C Unlimited rulebook;

Power and Drive Train:

Motor: -NEU 1527 1.5Y

Experimental options for 2013 -Scorpion 4035-800 -Turnigy SK3 Fandrive- 3994-850kv

Batteries: -8S1P configured Lithium Polymer (LiPo) battery(s).

The total capacity of batteries in the allowed chemistries and configurations shall not exceed a total capacity rating of 6,000 mAH.

Only LiPo batteries with a manufacturer’s minimum discharge rate of 30C constant but no higher than a 65C constant shall be allowed. There is a maximum $200.00 msrp per set limit.

Speed Controller: -Any speed controller may be used as long as it is a minimum of 150Amps.

-For safety, anti-spark resistors are advised on all speed controllers.

Propeller: -Any propeller may be used up to a maximum of 57MM diameter.

There is a maximum $200.00 msrp per set limit.

Good 4S packs go for about $110 now.

What year was that price set.
Will it be OK if you by them on Sale??????????

More mystery source rules always help to clear things up

[Doby]

Interesting...if you go to the home page...

They have a nice vid of a race where on the first lap, there is a collision...and several laps in there is another..etc

I suppose the "gentleman's" class rules don't seem to apply (no matter how expensive the boats are)...everyone wants to win and will race as such.

Maybe they're on to something! Power a Scale for under 5 bills!!

I was thinking more along this line.

I do not know what the msrp is though.

I think these cells are way better, I have beat on mine a little and show no drop in power or run time.

Larry...those cells are 70C () and therefore not allowed as per the new set of internet rules

John
Those rules are 3 years old.(need updating)
They are rules for one club only.
NOT IMPBA or NAMBA

[Doby]

I know that....but as Dougee seemed to want to murky up the waters even more, may as well have some fun with it

[Doby]

This discussion should be limited to IMPBA as it was started by the Michigan guys (who dumped NAMBA)

You don't like that rule set? Yeah I know!
Just wanted to point out the fact that it could be worse.
