No Nitro Rule at Segar RC Track

Total irony to the norm when Electric and Nitro RC hobbyists each kept to their own side and scale of turf. Today I saw Hpi Blitzes, Team Associated SC10s and some unidentifiable 1/10 scale 4wd buggy on the 1/8 Nitro buggy course at Segar Road.

I might seek some MP's help on this... Now that I'm a resident there.

Kyosho Inferno MP9 Break-in Acceleration Run


http://hpisavagex46.wordpress.com. After changing all the connectors in my starter box to withstand the discharge rate of Lipo batteries, the engine break-in process for my Kyosho Inferno MP9 TKI with SH 28. PT 28 XM1-P8 engine was back underway.

This engine has a top rev band of 38,000 rpm. You can really hear the difference from stock 28,000rpm engines as it hits all the high notes.

Due to the rich oil setting, it sure takes a while to get moving. But once it does... it's bloody fast.

Henglong TT01 "Aluminium Edition"

Http://hpisavagex46.wordpress.com. Henglong Electronics Corp of China, a large producer of RC cars and tanks released their "Aluminium Edition" of the ever-popular Tamiya TT01. Many hop ups come as standard feature on this bastardization. Do observe the pictures that follow:

Kit comes with a Nissan Skyline GTR body. The body mounts are a centimeter forward than what it should be, and that causes the wheel arches to catch the tyres on full lock turning. I'm done some body adjustments with curved scissors to rectify this.

Aluminium threaded oil-filled shocks and AM Digital Proportional Controller that seems to be a copy of the Hitec Aggressor SRX

Hardened steel pinion and spur gear. Will need some breaking in to get a better roll. 400-size 3000kv Brushless motor.

Another view of the suspension and transmission assembly.

5mm thick stainless centre drive shaft. I doubt this will ever break! You can also see the 40A Brushless ESC here. It supports 6-9 cell Nicd or NiMHs, or 2-3 cell Lipo packs.
