What are some esc / motor recommendations? I'm leaning towards a Tekin RS Pro and Tekin redline 6.5t?
I ran 6.5 in mine and t was just right.
What is the actual rules for the club on motors for 4wd class (I gather Thursdays a free but a Sunday will be controlled?)
No rules, open.
What are some tyre recommendations for the astro?
Schumacher yellow mini spikes or pins for dry, DBoots B for wet. Both from apex.
I've seen some people saying the ball links on the b44.2 are a bit fragile does anyone have experience with this? Are the rpms a good substitute?
RPM's are better on most cars, not essential to start though.
I was planning on getting a hybrid transponder from
http://www.bbksoftware.com/ seems the only place in in the uk?
Perfect.
Should I be thinking about anything else? I have radio gear and chargers, I'll get at least 1 BRCA approved lipo saddle pack and probably a couple of Turnigy nano tech's for practice.
Yes, would always recommend brca approved as they show they've been tested etc etc.
To start with I likely only make the Thursday meets unless I'm away with work, if i can do a respectable job then I'll try and make the odd Sunday.
Look forward to it!
