All for new technology and cooler running equipment for us in hot climates.

Good morning everyone,

 

There is a rules proposal that has been submitted to the contest board for approval that deals with 12s packs.  We are looking to have a vote soon on whether to approve or not approve this proposal.  You can find the proposal here on the AMA website - RCA22-02.

 

Please send me your thoughts on whether you think we should adopt this proposal or not.

 

Pros:

Higher voltage packs with less mah are cheaper

Less weight (in theory)

Cooler motors and batteries (may last longer)

More efficient power consumption

 

Cons:

Expensive to convert existing equipment to 12s

Doesn’t align with FAI

Market may not support a lot of motor options

 

Best,

-Derek
