Classes

For the 2018/2019 inaugural season we have seven (7) classes being offered.  These standards will be upheld until July 31st 2019.  In this first season we have four excellent and innovative manufacturer partners - Team Powers, ORCA, Scropion and Team Scream.

All motors will come with 3.5mm female bullets soldered on to the motors. Racers will be responsible for supplying their own 3.5mm male bullets connectors for sensored motor A-B-C connections. Bullets must not be removed from the motors.

Limited gearing is used for two major reasons -- to keep motors cool and to keep speeds under control as the majority of motors are over-spec'd on purpose. The chart below specifies if one of three types of gearing is required - 1) Minimum FDR, 2) Fixed pinion / spur, or 3) open gearing. The specification of NA under outdoor gearing is because we haven't received requests to provide a specific configuration for that class outdoors.
