Like I said you can get 3 to 4 runs out a set. ( even with a 4.5 )

Is there any more news on the 2.4ghz debate going on in Belgium?

[tony12795]

Are Lipos now allowed for the whole meeting ?

[Garry Driffill]

I think its just for practice days only.

[Chrislong]

Have you guys not red the website? Im not telling you if you can't be arsed to look.

Regarding 2.4GHZ:

Regarding Lipo, navigate to it through this, via Grand Prix and somewhere in there, im looking at it but the link doesn't seem to go to the page I wanted to link to: (It also said all this on the emails you didn't read)

I assume that our radios are 10Mv? which is ok...

It's a lot of information but nowhere does it say "you can" or "you can't" use 2.4Ghz radios. Or have I missed something

[Chrislong]

Reading between the lines I think we will be okay, but there is further discussions to happen before anything is finalised.

Yeh, that's the way I read it. Why could they not have just said "you can use 2.4ghz at the moment and a final decission will be made 10th June" who really cares about all that other guff?

What the heck is a Liposack? Sounds like something Chris Long would now all about... Chris???

[Chrislong]

Its a handbag to put your Lippy in dude!

LOL, nah its just a sack which you put the Lipo in while being charged and so if it goes pop, it protects everyone. No mushroom cloud etc.

Ahhhhh! I see... well as long as it's nothing contagous.
