Nosram 4100mAh & 3100mAh stick pack LiPo batteries

After months of development and testing, the new Nosram stick pack LiPo batteries are ready. The perfect LiPos for hobby and amateur drivers who are mindful of their budget but still want to run LiPo batteries of high quality. Also ideal for RTR buyers who want to start directly with LiPo batteries. This classic, rounded “stick pack” shape in 134mm length fits perfectly into chassis that were originally designed for NiMH stick pack batteries. Due to the 4mm off-centre cable outlet, the battery posts are also no longer in the way. Currently available in 4100mAh and 3100mAh 50C versions, they are each available with the currently popular connectors, Tamiya, T-Plug, XT60 and EC3.

Nosram HD StockSpec brushless speed control

UK Nosram distributors Schumacher have introduced the new HD StockSpec brushless speed control. The HD Stock Spec comes pre-installed with the all-new v5.1 software. This software is adapted to the new hardware and new vital features have been added to make it best possible for today’s need in Stock racing. Initial Drive Feel Compensation (IDFC) has been developed especially with Stock racing in mind to maximise the comfort of initial drive feel over the whole race. Activating IDFC will provide initial drive increments depending on the temperature of the motor. This innovative feature will help to match the same power feeling on throttle over the whole race. Users can either select no compensation or adjust more IDFC to match the desired feeling on throttle after the motor gets hotter and battery weaker. Newly developed Stock parameters for the timing allow to unleash the full power potential in all boosted classes. The new BDX-S break rounds off the package for Stock drivers. Four different brake types including BDX-S are now included, enabling maximum braking power with increased response for pin-point accuracy when entering tight corners. By the time of release, Nosram continues to use its well-known system for trackside adjustments with push buttons, with no need to use a separate programming unit. The Nosram HD speed control series however is designed to support external programming device which is planned to be offered later on.
