Tuli sähköpostia ruottista. Kaikki sinne lähtevät jo varmaan tämän tietävätkin, mutta laitan silti tuon viestin tänne.

Hello all racers
Many of you have probably already heard about the incidents with exploding batteries.
The Swedish committee of Radio controlled cars ”SBF/RB” have forbidden the use of the following batteries at all competitions in Sweden:
Intellect 4200mAh with the batch number AZCWT, see picture below.
We have of this reason forbidden this battery to be used at our competition, both during the practice and during the race.
There will be inspections of this during the whole weekend. If anyone is breaking against this rule it will lead to immediate disqualification.
Other batteries that now have been allowed by the Swedish SBF/RB in addition to those already allowed according to the EFRA list are:
EP 4200
EP 4600
TEAM ORION 4200 HSO
In addition to this EFRA have also will be forbidden soldering the cables to the batteries from the ESC.
They must be connected with battery connector so it easily can be disconnected in case of an emergancy.
See:
