    The 2016 European Championships where held in Valladolid, Spain. It was a dirt track and the jumps where covered by astroturf. After the warm up race the club removed the stone parts of the track and filled it with dirt. It made the track much better for 1/10Electric racing then before.

    Monday started with 7 Rounds of free practice. My Team Orion powered Serpent was great and only needed some small tweaks due the hot tempratures, after practice I was 2nd. Tuesday were another 2 Rounds of controlled practice and 3 Rounds of qualifying. I was able to TQ the 1st Round, 2nd in Round 2 and another TQ in the 3rd Round. That gave me the overnight TQ going into the finals day on wednesday. I could TQ the 4th Round, but Neil Cragg got the 5th Round and was 0.1sec faster then my time and I was only 2nd Overall.

    The finals. A1 I had a good start but, 3rd place driver tried to pass me but we crashed. I fall back to 3rd, but worked my way back up to 2nd.

    A2 This time I was very close to Neil after the start and I could follow him around closly until he made a mistake over the triple, which gave me the lead. I never looked back and took the leg victory.

    A3 The deciding leg. A clean start and I was again close at Neil´s back, I tried to follow him again. After the bridge, I had slighlty more speed, but it was no room to try a pass on Neil, so I decided to brake harder that we not crash, but unfortunately I braked to hard and spun out. After that I had no chance to take the win anymore. Overall I finished 2nd place in 2WD with the new version Serpent Spyder SRX2.



     
    4WD again 7 Rounds of free practice. My car was very good for a 5min run. Overall after practice where the best 2 laps counted I was 5th. Going into qualifying on Friday I was very confident with my hole package. In Round 1 I got a 2nd place, Round 2 a 5th place and 4th in Round 3. Overall I was 3rd after 3 Rounds. 

    I had more pace in my package then this, but always small issues held me back.

    On Saturday, the day started out good with a 2nd place in Round 4 and a 3rd in Round 5. Overall I stayed in 3rd place.

    A1 I should started in 3rd, but as the others had issues before the start 3rd was actually the TQ spot. I was able to build a gap to the others over the first couple laps and take the win.

    A2 I had a few small mistakes over the run and finished 2nd place. Which already secured a podium spot.

    A3 I knew I needed to win this final to take the Overall victory. I had a very good start and could pass Neil on the second corner. After that I was right at the back of Bruno for a coupe of laps until I passed him on the inside before the chicane. Bruno made an error and fall back to 4th. I had a 3 seconds lead over Neil with 2 min to go. I knew I just need to keep it on the wheels and I would take the 4WD European Title. That was exactly what happend and I was crowned the new 4WD European Champion after coming so close in 2WD.   My Serpent Spyder SDX4  shaftdrive production prototype worked very well !!  

     
    Thanks to all my Sponsors, without their support it wouldnt be possible to archieve such great results.

    Hack PETITRC

    By Nicolas Petit, in News PetitRC,

    Bonjour,
    Notre site s'est fait hacker hier samedi 20/08/2016 et nous avons ainsi rencontrer de nombreux dysfonctionnements afin de rétablir tout à la normal.
    Force est de constater que la réparation n'a pu est opérationnelle à 100% malheureusement. C'est la raison pour laquelle, la sauvegarde de la base de données du forum repart sur Novembre 2015 (seule sauvegarde ayant réussie, les dernières n'ont pas abouties).
    Veuillez nous excuser pour la gène occasionée et les données perdues. Merci de votre compréhension.

    Modélisment vôtre,

    10th Scale Handling, 8th Scale Durability!
    Tekno RC EB48SL.
     

    We often have people ask us, what is the super light buggy? What is it about? Is it replacing the e-buggy as we know it? We have decided to make this article so we make things clear!


    What is the super light car? 
     

    Tekno RC EB48SL car is based on our very successful EB48 buggy. It islighter, more nimble, more affordable, using the same electronics as theSCT410.3 truck, it is pure fun!
     
    Is it here to replace the EB48.3 buggy?  
    The answer is simple, No. Super light buggies are a different class, they excel in different conditions compared to the EB48.3
     
    What are the main advantages of the EB48 SL buggy?   10th scale handling, 8th scale durability (that's what we all want, right?). Lower cost for electronics (SCT motor and ESC, 2s batteries). Shares 90% of the SC410.3 parts. Lighter and not as much power, safer on indoor tracks, less impact on the track surface.

    The new Awesomatix A800 is hitting the stores shortly and soon many new lucky owners will enjoy it.
    It is a departure of the shaft driven layout following now the trend of 2 belt driven cars.
    Although a proven choice, Awesomatix has chosen to explore even further the posibilities to improve weight distribution and maximize the performance potential of the car.
    By placing the spur gear on the right side (battery side) of the car, it allows to put the motor by 2mm further to the centre of the car as well as give direct access to the spur gear without the requirement of removing belts or upper deck. More on this later.
    The entire transmission has been designed with the goal to be the lightest and most efficient possible. Low friction belts and pulleys help to achieve these goals as well as better reliability is achieved through the use of specific materials and well thought design.

    Three chassis options are available. Here you can see the two of them. The one on top is a very nice aluminium hard anodized scratch resistant chassis with a lot of milling and a 3D shape where a concave effect is visible at the bottom of the chassis. This has proven to perform very well in many different conditions on carpet racing.The carbon chassis is a standard design with symmetrical milling on both sides of the main axis to produce even flex characteristics

    • Bonjour, Je me permets de poster un message car j'ai un soucis avec ma voiture rc (TT 1/10e 4X2). J'ai un combo hobbywing quickrun 60A avec un moteur 17.5T et un accu WS line (50C / 7200mA / 7.4V). Lorsque je pose la voiture sur la piste, elle fonctionne parfaitement. Je fais un tour, et arrivé dans la ligne droite (pour la seconde fois donc), à fond, j'atteint environ 25 km/h (vitesse prise avec un radar) ce qui est ridicule comparé à mon 1er passage.  Avez vous une idée d'où peut venir mon problème de puissance? je vous avoue ne pas savoir dans quelle direction chercher (je suis un débutant). Voici la liste des réglages que j'ai essayé pour palier mon soucis: - J'ai refait le neutre de mon ESC - J'ai retiré le cut off - J'ai essayé une autre batterie que la mienne Je précise également que j'ai beaucoup de puissance au démarrage (j'ai réglé le punch à fond) J'ai également réglé le timing moteur à fond.   Si une âme charitable à quelques minutes à perdre pour m'aider ce serait super.   Bonne journée à tous :).
