Back into RC!
Monday, August 17th, 2009Well, after much resistance (actually none I just caved in), I have gotten back into radio controlled cars again with a vengeance. The latest craze in the hobby seems to be “short course” trucks and rock climbers. Therefore, I bought two Associated SC10s and a Losi 1/10 Comp Crawler. Both SC10s were in the kit form (building them is half the fun). One is “mine” and one is Erika’s. The idea would be to slowly re-introduce myself to the local racing scene with the SC10 and just use the Losi for fun/picnics/bashing, etc. We’ll seen how that goes. Anyway here are the specs (I probably spent way too much money on this):
Mine (red, yellow, and blue SC10):
- Tekin RS electronic speed control
- Tekin Redline 13.5 turn brushless motor
- HiTec HS-5625MG Servo
- Ko Propo KR-407S Receiver
- Ko Propo EX5-UR transmitter
- Team Associated CVDs
- Team Associated ball bearing steering upgrade
- Team Associated titanium turnbuckles
Erika’s (metallic blue):
- LRP A.I. Brushless Reverse Digital speed controller
- LRP Eraser 15.5 turn motor
- HiTec HS-635HB servo
- Tactic TR-324 receiver
- Tactic TTX240 transmitter
Losi 1/10 Comp Crawler
- Novak GOAT 3s speed control
- Novak 21.5 turn brushless crawler motor
- Hobbico CS-170 servo
- Ko Propo KR-407S Receiver
- Losi MSX12 digial mini servo (for the dig unit)
