Alla joitakin mielenkiintoisia poimintoja ensi viikolla Las Vegasissa ajettavan IIC-kisan (International Indoor Championships) säännöistä:
Handout Brushless Motors: Koneet eri valmistajilta eri luokissa
Each racer will receive 1 motor with their registration. You will have the option of purchasing a second motor for the event, this price will be $60.00.
The handout motors selected for each class are as follows:
Amateur 17.5 Provided By Team Orion
1/12th 17.5 Provided By Speed Passion
13.5 Foam Provided By Hacker
13.5 Rubber Provided By Novak
World GT ( =1/10 mattoauto) 13.5 Provided By LRP
Batteries:NIMH: We will be following ROAR and EFRA guidelines for this event. The maximum capacity for NIMH cells will be 4600mah.
LIPO: For LIPO batteries we will be following ROAR rules:
Only ROAR approved LIPO batteries will be permitted. Batteries must appear on the approved list to be used during the IIC at all, this includes practice.
All LIPO batteries must be charged inside a LIPO sack during the event.All LIPO packs will be voltage tested at pre-tech to ensure they have a voltage of 8.44v maximum on our equipment. If you arrive in tech and your battery is higher than the maximum permitted voltage you must discharge the battery until it meets the maximum reading of 8.44v or less before you will be allowed to run your heat.**UPDATE**
As we all know the Hot topic for discussion at the IIC this year is to heat or not to heat the Lipo’s.
Some people say it’s simple just let us heat them well it’s not that simple, right now our hobby is in the middle of one of it’s biggest technology changes that it’s seen in the last 15 if not 20 years, in the last 3 years we have been introduced to brushless motor technology, and in the last year lipo batteries are making there way into the race scene.
The technology is moving so fast it’s hard to keep up and much harder to up date and enforce the new rules that need to be implemented for all the new products that come out almost every month.
I have learned in the last five years that making a rash decision is fatal especially when it comes to teching any big event, so things need to be thought trough before making a decision.
Anyone that has participated in the IIC in the last three years knows we try are hardest to make it fair and equal for you the racers and also the manufacturers who support this event.
With that said this year the IIC will allow the warming of lipo’s with a heating pad type device.The max temp for the Lipo’s will be 110 degree’s this temp will be checked in pre tech.
The max voltage will still be 8.44 volts that will also be checked in the pre tech area.It is still up to you guys to make the right decision when charging and discharging this new technology. One extra tenth of a volt will not win the IIC but one fire might end it.
Bodies:Ultra light weight bodies will not be permitted in any class.
