Mmeu 2017 supplement rules

[T.S.Davis]

This will be applicable to the Michigan Cup also for those planning to attend.

It defines M spec, offshore, and 10th scale as none of those exist in IMPBA.

I like the 8 lap offshore rule.

Not that I have a horse in the race but, why 1700kv instead of 1800kv limit in 1/10th scale? That rules out the use of a Aquacraft 1800kv motor which was being used previously and people may still may have?

Just curious

Any word yet from TP on there change of the length of the 3630 Motor??

We know that it is the same motor, they just made the can longer.

Ball,
The 1800kv motor was never approved for 1/10 scale. Only the blue 1700kv motor was approved. That is why we chose to stay within that kv limit

Yep, it relies on a degree of honesty too. We wont be out there KV testing to prove it's right. The class only exists on MMEU water so no worries I think. We'll see how it settles out but that Dynamite1500 is so good in scale I can't see anything working better. Great torque for what are typically boats with a lot of surface to free up.

Larry, I'm pretty sure they ask you now which can you want when you order the TP. Steve, might have the right ones on the shelf too. He knows the deal on them.

BTW, I wouldn't say there was any noticeable advantage to the TP over the Dynamites in Phoenix. That's not to say there wont or can't be. We just didn't find it yet. I know I was less concerned about prop choice over the old 2030 can when running the 1950 TP. Might be some more speed there with some prop work but haven't gotten there yet.

Ahhhh gotcha. I forgot about that.

Will there be any 1/8 scale legislation? Like motor, hull type, prop size. FE T- hydro worked well at the CanAm, of course that leaves the door open for just about anything. We all new it was for FE 1/8th scale.

[T.S.Davis]

open motors for scale Jay. Flier is done. Just getting the sanction right. Then I'll post it.

[T.S.Davis]

Sorry. I stand corrected. No 1/8 scale for the cup.

[Doby]

Sorry. I stand corrected. No 1/8 scale for the cup.

.......

[Todd Fleury]

I think what should be done is offer both 1/8 Scale and T FE Scale and go with the class with more sign ups.

[T.S.Davis]

Nope. Done with it. Let it die off.

[Doby]

Murderer!

So, Jay Moffat brought this to my attention, and I made a mistake. The 1/8 scale motor rules are subject to technical check. It is an MMEU race, and Terry is the CD so he can bend the rules accordingly. This is not a nationals, so the motors do not need to be checked.
