There's nothing wrong with doing it here and now. All proposals come from racers. And there has always been too much lack of influence and interest when it comes to this. This is a very fruitful discussion!
Don't say "others know best" - there is no "others"!
It's just you & me! There's no "men in dark suits" doing the thinking for us!
It may very well be a guy who could have been a Beetle that makes that brilliant new proposal!
(nice cut!)
In the past batteries, mufflers, bodies etc were constantly added. So I myself actually proposed to "freeze" the list for one whole year at the time some years ago... and it was passed!
I guess we can leave the testing of batteries to EFRA, they already do this for NiMH. But we should spec what types of LiPo is legal.
Then again, just saying we impose a 7,4 V limit and use the EFRA battery list would work just fine.
Actually, for 1:10 OR, we could just leave it totally open and just have a battery list... If someone wants to run with 20 volts who cares?
