Hi,
On the pack blowing up in someones face. Guess I'm going on second hand news here... I heard at the Neo race it was a LiPo pack..
Obviously it seems, not and I stand corrected... Apologies for misrepresentation.
We've all seen horror stories.
@Mark. Let me correct you here. I do not work for Mirage.... a common misconception....I work for HPI and Hot-Bodies.... and also of course Edit... there is a a big difference!!!!! I represent brands that Mirage import through various forms of racing but i no way do I work from them... HPI and Mirage are completely seperate entities.
I'm not getting heated, just pointing out a view...which I believe is the point of a forum.
I'm all for making the sport a cheaper place and I belive it's why Off-road is becoming more popular, there is less of a gap in off road than in any other class.
Go touring car racing.... you know need 5cells which because of the amp drain will kill the cells much quicker than 6 cells.
Buying cheap unmatched cells sometimes seems a cheap way of going racing, but for the extra outlay for some matched cells you would get much better value for money... My cells are over a year old know and have had some serious hammer. 32 meetings in all and they are still going strong...
Infact they are coming up for re-newal.... If you want to buy some decent cells that are better and cheaper than the unmatched ones....you know where to come...
