[momo_siao]

nice thread. how much it cost for 1 normal?????

winnie???? i like the casing very much leh.. or rather the car haha

yup the silvia cover~ its very nice indeed~

tink its a new concept for them to come out with lights also~~ making it so lovely

Theo's car is chassis series TA05 different from the silvia which is TT01 which is newer~

TA05 is sort of design for racing series in the professinal R/C races ard the world.

heard from theo, tat chassis has more parts to zhng on it comparing to TT01, TT01 also
can be tuned but a shorter range i guess~ so it depends wat r u using the chassis for?

time to time R/C cars has been tuned for pure racing interest n competition so until now the era came with drifting~

wah lew u guys makin my hands itchy in goin to get 1/10

nice thread. how much it cost for 1 normal?????

Okay, here goes:

TT01 chassis kit with electronic speed controller (ESC): $188
3300mAh 7.2V battery pack: minimum $38
Basic (5-7hour charge time) charger: $15
Radio controller (with transmitter, receiver and 2 servos): minimum $115-$125 onwards (should be the Futaba 2PHKA [Futaba Magnum Jr.]
Eight pieces of AA batteries for transmitter: $10?
A set of PVC tyres + wheels around $8-10

More racy kit:
more than 4000mAh battery pack: minimum $85
ESC with no motor limit: minimum $150
Auto peak detect + discharger: minimum $150
Modified motor (handwound coil and balanced): $135

Note that the higher battery current rating you go, that means you can run your car longer but your ESC and motor will have to run hotter and longer, get a heatsink for your motor at least. Most ESCs nowadays have a safety cutoff to shutdown before they overheat so as to prevent damage.

For Your Info

for nitro 1/10 or 1/8 ... it got to be Serpent cars ...

for electric 1/10 ... go for x-ray ...

these 2 brand never fail

but you got to know a bit of car setting to suit both your driving style and road condition.
