| as far as i know there are no "official" micro comps. there for I dont know of any rules. I would think if they existed they would be here if you were building a comp rig i would imagine the rules would be determined by the people you crawl with if you don't have any locals with micros then you dont need to follow any rules |

me and my buddys scaled down 1.9 comp rules since its the closest thing ...i guess you could scale 1/10 but ive decided dig is excessive for these guys just my opinion but 1.9 comp rules work good for me its soo much more fun to challenge yourself with a comp format |

This is determined by measuring the bottom of the outer most edge of the front and rear tires while the vehicle is sitting on level ground. o 2.4.3 - Vehicle is limited to 1.9 inch wheels/rims or smaller at the bead surface. Wheels may be modified provided that the tire bead surface does not exceed 1.9 inches in diameter. With a tire mounted no exterior component of the wheel including but not limited to the bead lock ring shall exceed 2.2". Tires may be modified from other sized tires using only a pliable rubber but must not exceed a total uncompressed outer diameter of 4.25 inches. o 2.4.4 - Vehicles are limited to 2-wheel steering on front axle only. o 2.4.5 - Vehicles are limited to the use of 2 channels radio control (one for steering & one for throttle) only. Neither channel can be used to perform more than one function. Radio systems with more than 2 channels are allowed but only 2 channels can be used to control the vehicle. o 2.4.6 - Vehicles are limited to 1 ESC & 1 servo only. o 2.4.7 - Vehicles are limited to 1 motor powering both of the axles. o 2.4.8 – No driver controlled devices, other than steering and throttle control, will be allowed. Independent throttle control to the front or rear axles (“burn” or “dig”), winching down the axles, and forced articulation are not allowed in this class. o 2.4.9 – A battery is limited to 11.1 nominal voltage. o 2.4.10 – 1.9 Crawler class bodiless 6.75" overall length, 2.5" overall width, and 3.25" overall height. o 2.4.11 - 1.9 Class body must be 2.75” minimum height on sides.

I like those 1.9 rules. One of the reasons I got out of 2.2 was all the extra crap that was being introduced weekly. One week I had a good rig, the next week it was a stone age relic. Keeping up with the guys who had money and time for more channels, more servos, more technology was killing me.

Wheel bases are a big thing that need to be addressed it should be stock and mod two classes IMO.

Maybe a stock class, limited to stock WB, tires, 2s, and 2ch. The a mod class w/ no limits aside from the micro axles? I've been dying to have a big micro comp, or at least a set up at a normal comp. |

What about a modified Stock class? Upgraded chassis, tires, wheels, weights, etc. but stock electrics (Esc, Motor, Servo)? Also, Beelzebob, what type of course would you use in a comp? |

well, the tronics don't give you as much of an advantage as a 6" WB 4" wide Mini QLO tire rockin rig. if you were to make 2 classes, I think 1 would have to accommodate those who haven't plugged a few hundred bucks into one. So the stock WB, 2s lipo, and 2ch would limit a great deal, but still allow some competitive modifications. Then for the rest of us, we could just have an unlimited(ish) class. the restrictions there would be Losi micro axles and like a 7' WB? We could also have a scaler class. following along the guidelines of larger scale comps. As far as to WHAT we could run on...... EVERYTHING. |

Asked about the course because if you used the Losi Micro course, other could practice, but I believe it's a little too small. | |

Limiting 1 class to completley stock would be too boring IMHO. they kinda suck ass right out of the box. So allowing better servos, batts, and even ESC would give an advantage, but keep everone in the same ball field. As for a Super Micro class, i dunno. I could make mine 12" long if i wanted LOL..... So put a cap on the WB, but then let everyone go nutz. A 7" Micro w/ dig and 4WS would be cool, but pretty top heavy compared to one w/o. the lil card board thing from Losi is lame. I spent like $100 on foam and paint and texture when i first got mine. We cold do 3 courses, 1 all natural, 1 all synthetic, and then 1 urban course w/ books, DVD's shoes, beer bottles etc. |
