  • Join us as we start our journey back into 1/ 10 scale TC racing. We plan to run in the stock class with a 17.5 turn brushless set up... but there is a problem.
    The touring car scene is a mind field and we have much to learn along the way.
    We take the team powere R3G and convert it in to the T3M full carbon 1/10 touring car.
    But is it any good, lets see how we get on on the track.
    Is this the best RC car chassis you can get for £300.
    RACEOPT T3M conversion of the R3-G with low profile shock tower conversion and roll bar kit.
    You will need to get the base R3G and Purchase Roll Bars Kit, 2021 Upgrade chassis kit and Low Profile Shock Conversion all for about £300.00. Or maybe just ask for what POPALONG RC got and they will know what you want.
    www.team-power...
    Their is also a Facebook support group with over 1000 raceopt users who run the cars across different countries so you end up getting 24hours support.

    Ah the old touring car mine field. The first 75% of performance is pretty easy to achieve, and although it's a bit slow, the fixed timing motor is lovely for getting your eye in and sorting a basic set up - looks like you're there with that now. That last 25% is all marginal gains. Better motors, better batteries, more measurement gear, tyres & additive. It's a fun journey though and feels great to make nice steps forward in performance each time you go to the track.
    Enjoy guys! If you can, Popalong to one of the MICC events this winter to really have your eyes opened to carpet touring cars.

    Justock is perfect speed for that track unfortunately the other motors are much quicker. Which is why FWD is so popular with it's Justock combo and rev controlled motor. Stock class can get very expensive with the new motor of the month, new batteries and re-generative discharging. A Justock 4wd class ran to to the same rules as the fwd's using realistic 4/5 door TC bodies would be fantastic

      Absolutely Luke, I think there’s definitely something in a just stock class.

      @@beardbuffet5348 definitely that's why I race mod, only problem we have is cars are now too fast for the tyres to consistently keep up. A few of us ran 5t blinky at my local outdoor club at the weekend and it was fantastic and the first final had 4 blinky cars covered by less than 2 secs

    yes exactly TC is all about small changes The amount of adjustability in my 1/5 TC MCD Duox is absolutely phenomenal

    Great video lads! I love learning about fine details or the "nitty gritty" as we say and I'm looking forward to seeing (and learning) your videos and watching how you do all these small changes.. As they say it's the small things that matter.. That's what I tell my wife anyways.. 🤣

    Watching this closely guys. Done some of a season outdoor and only had 2 rounds with my car (xpress xq2s), but now the indoor season is away to start I’m really looking to improve my skills and the car. Also you guys have your stickers available? 😂

    Very interested to see your journey with these and thanks for sharing. I wonder what persuaded you away from the 2WD frontie to the 4WD?

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  Год назад +1

      We are running a 2wd MTC but have not completely discounted the fronties
      So stay tuned.

    Hmm the left body looks like DogsBollox which im using now for asphalt.

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  Год назад

      It is a great shell and performs well on track

    Nice one guy, lots to learn about dynamics but just think about how fast does a golf ball go after it's been hit lol ☄️drag

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  Год назад

      And how quick it stops when it hits a bunker

    Guys, good video, but you've never said which motor is better than HobbyWing 17.5?
    Please let us know.

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  Год назад

      The Teampowers 17.5 motor is apparently amazing 👍

  • @darthdamo3491

    Come to aldershot and race them. Their winter series starts this month.

    • @PopalongRC
      @PopalongRC  Год назад

      Sounds good! What’s the tyre choice??

    • @darthdamo3491
      @darthdamo3491 Год назад

      I'm not too sure, I think you can use anything brca approve but don't quote me on that. Might be worth checking on their website and or Facebook.
