Hi Mate, glad you are thinking about joining us, no 4 cells would be a huge advantage over 1 cell lipo. We wanted to run two classes, one that reflected budget out of the box racing and another that reflected Zero Maintenance, Zero fuss. With 13.5 brushless and 1 cell lipo (both Motor, Speedo, Lipo and voltage booster attainable for just £150) it still offers budget racing but with zero maintenance and fuss :-)

If you don't want to invest in a Lipo then stick a G2 £4.50 motor and cheap speedo in and come and race stock. It will be just as much fun :-)

Hope you join us.

Glad to hear it but don't get too good, I don't like getting beaten on my own track, I've had to ban 3 people already

i think 4 cell would be better would have the extra ooomph no need for voltage booster most people already have 4 cells so no extra outlay
