Just another evening

Its nice to be out there meeting friends and do some healthy activity after working hours. You train your hand agility and learn new stuff everyday. Plus strengthen friendship among racer.

Speeding at Stadium r/c track

Even before and after our office hours we always spent times at the Radio Control touring circuit nearby our local Gokart race track for several laps of races among each other,. Its kinda of interesting to race side by side, navigating through narrow corners challenging both our mental and physical skills handling our cars at high speed. We really do enjoy and sometimes laugh aloud if something always funny happen along the way. For me its very realxing and enjoyable activity before and after office hours just to release out the stress being a working adult, Yes we have all adults people from the 25 to their 60's gather around the track putting all their days of madness at their finger tips and release it on their little cars. Whizzing around the track, beating your opponnent cutting off the grid, drifting and sprint at max really put the stress out of our mind and put those big smile in our face before we get back home. Plus we always meet new friend everyday at the track.

Wild weekends

Every weeks we always have friendly r/c gathering outside every noon. We gather throughout several place in town searching for a great spot to race among each other mano a mano. Everythime we gather we always race, giving tech support, help on r/c maintenance, cheering, laughing and and the end of the day a cold drinks at nearvy cafe for chat about our activity. An average of 5 hours we really fill our times with meaningful activity, strengthen friendship and gain extra knowledge. Sometime we ended having sunburns on our skins, heavt sweats and dry under the hot sun but still won't deter us from enjoying our hobby.

Onboard cam-video ..Duel racing

Here's the video from our Saturday noon 12.30pm play. Got both me allokitty, akiraceo, and eru in it.:


Once again we go crazy on hot Saturday noon at 12.30pm buzzing around carpark with our small scale radio control car.
PSP cam onboard NANDA NRX-18 touring car belong to Akiraceo our forum Member....yup the cam is heavy so the car was not in a good balancing mode. The one chasing from behind is my modified auldey mini-monster chassis equipped with HENG LONG AM 27hz receiver, ESC-Castle Creation 1/18 SIDEWINDER MICRO brushless system 4200KV motor, TOWER PRO 9G mini servo, PN Racing bearings and aluminum gears and lots of hop ups. Turning cheap toys into expensive jewel!

As you can see NRX-18 uses Brushless system 6800KV motor value versus mini monster truck which uses 4200KV brushless motor. Both however equipped with the same ESC system: Castle Creation SIDEWINDER. Too bad i lose the race by 2 second. lucky i didn't put LIPO battery else that NRX-18 eat dust.

Saturday night drift again

At noon was well prepared with all my r/c models, well tuned KYOSHO MINI-Z and NRX-18 already upgraded with new 370 racing motor with custom 7.2V 2700mah enough torque power to drift along the circuit. At local hobby shop people swarming around to get parts and stuff for tonight event. By night at 10.45pm everyone at the drift circuit. I also met our local forumer who also seem to be in the same interest on 1/18 scale r/c tag along for the run. My first run was sprint duel again another brushless NRX-18 player but i'm using my 1/28 Kyosho Mini-z againts him. Was fast and extreme drag duelling especially i'm up again larger size brushless. After 1 hour 30min run time he won't by 1 second difference ahead of me. After drain sets of 4.8V 1000mah battery on my mini-z i pulled out my NRX-18 1/18 to join the other drifter on the track. With new 370 motor the car was powerfull enough to pull a huge side slide drifting partially around the circuit but dampens by soft compund tyre and short lived 15min battery. So i pulled another custom 7.2V 2700mah battery power and slot into my 1/18. I pulled the trigger 100% throttle thecar stutter and halt, ESC beakons an emergency overheat sound. I tried several attempts but still the ESC beacons emergency sound which inform me that big troubles is coming to wreck my day. Unable to troubleshoot the problem at night so i decided to halt for the day and went home with other at 12.38am at midnight. At home i made several test and found out i've fried a speed controller chip which suppose to handle more current. After long toughts i decided to get new ESC parts and motor to cope with the demanding problem.
