RCTalk VRC Race Club (VRCT)

You'll do better than last, because I'll be in last. I can't seem to get rid of the twitch on my controller. Thing is, it only does it when hooked to my pc, when I run my truggy, it doesn't happen.

I'm thinking about picking up one of the VRC controllers in the future.

I just realised that I have been practicing on the wrong track, I thought I was at Sydney but I was at kakegawa

I'm gonna need the handicap to keep it close LOL

Which USB adapter did they send? They have 3-4 different ones and some have problems with 2.4ghz radios. Try contacting VRC.

Do you have another radio?


I'm not sure if I'll put in any runs this week. I just had knee surgery Friday and sitting at the computer isn't all that comfortable.

The USB adapter that came with the Venom radio is just a usb to 3.5mm jack

 

[Racer 1966]

Really? So what does it plug into? Is it a direct link to the radio so you don't use an rx?

It plugs into the back side of the radio.

 

[Racer 1966]

Interesting! I'd say you definitely need to contact VRC about the problem.

Wouldn't I contact Venom? The cord came with the radio.

 

[Racer 1966]

It won't hurt to contact both but I say VRC since that's where the problem comes in with the Radio.

 

[alien13]

Ok, I'll look into it.

Ok,I got bored and ran a test at Kakegewa. The tx batts died with under a minute to go.

Will I be able to join after the season starts? I won't have my new computer before June.

 

[NCNitro]

Sure you can, I joined last year with only six races left, and had a good time running those six, well with the exception of oslo, lol.

This is looking like it's gonna be a great season, with all you new guys joining us I am really looking forward to racing.

You bet you can!

You can play the role of spoiler in the points race.

Sounds awesome!

 

[SMaxxin]

I just got an email with the results of a practice event, if only I had ran 18 more laps it would have been close...this year is going to be a long learning experience for me LOL


1. RobMob 63 laps 8:04.932
2. SMaxxin 45 laps 8:06.988

 

[NCNitro]

I totally brain farted and forgot all about the run. I was stuck in Brooklyn all day and when I got home I was beat. Damn! And I worked like hell on my set up all week for that track, lol. Oh well, at least it wasn't for the actual season.

There is also a 4 minute Speedway race. This one will be fun. Can you, or can you not run 4 minutes without running out of fuel?

 

[Racer 1966]

Sorry I didn't make the speedway run. I charged the tx but just didn't feel like staying up any longer so I blew it off and went to bed.


4 minutes without running out of fuel huh? This should be interesting.


Ditto on what Joe said - it's great to have all you guys getting into the racing!

 

[NCNitro]

Can you, or can you not run 4 minutes without running out of fuel?

I can not, I can only go about 3:40, so I will be 20 sec short.
