2016 FE Nationals August 9th-13th

Darin, throw your P limited in P offshore. You'll only be off the pace by a 1/4 to a 1/2 a lap. With drivers being the loose canons that we are you could easily place that way.

U haven't seen my p offshore then terry��

Ray, I can make my 1527/1d run for 4 minutes but its a bugger to finish with.

I never looked at the totals for 15 but at the 14 Nat's there was little difference.

U can make a 1527 1d run 4 min on 10000 mah?? With what prop?? Geez

Honestly, that's just more power than one needs. Someone is compensating...

A solid setup on a 1415 1Y could easily do 4-Min at WOT, which would give you PLENTY of speed and you wouldn't kill your packs. We've found, in a P-HYDRO, for example, that the 1415 1Y Castle/Neu only used a couple of hundred more mAh than a P-LTD setup. Just more efficient.

I'm having one of those Buass moments where I don't want anyone to read my stuff, think my setup is for them, and burn their boat to the water line.

That setup is stupid. It's what I had in my box of gear at that moment to run. Got it done with 11% in the tank on 10k. Absolutely a nightmare to finish with. With some careful throttle work it was possible......sometimes. Okay maybe 2 out of 3 heats.

I've said before that I make up for my lack of driving prowess with obscene quantities of speed. So yes, compensating for something. It's oddly satisfying to hear people gasp on the drivers stand when you go by them at one g'jillion miles per hour. Of course they later go by me when I'm floating upside down on the 5th lap.

Only reason I'm going is for Saturday. My only Nats in any form of RC.

[Darin Jordan]

Well CRAP... Heard that someone pulled out of the Nats last night, taking 6 entries with him.

The anticipated Zelos 36 Twin vs. MTR X2 will just have to wait, I guess. Q-Cat has been canceled due to only two entries left...

Quote from his FB status this morning :

"Thanks Delta... There goes that trip to the WestCoast"

Guess we'll see....

[T.S.Davis]

Delta is back up and running. Er....crawling might be a better word.

No group photo was taken that I remember steven

[Steven Vaccaro]
