Ryan Maifield confirmed at Reedy

Reedy has confirmed that Team Associated Factory Driver Ryan Maifield has signed to race Reedy’s all‐new .21 competition nitro engine for the remainder of the 2008 season and beyond. Input from a driver of Ryan’s caliber is instrumental in the development of an engine suitable for World Class competition. In Ryan’s first race with his new powerplant, the 2008 Summer Nitrofest at The Farm 2, he qualified on pole position and nearly led wire‐to‐wire to win in convincing fashion. Because The Farm 2 is the host of the 2008 IFMAR World Championships later this year, Maifield becomes an early favourite for the coveted title.

Reedy LiPo for TX, RX & Starters

A broad selection of Reedy LiPo batteries is now available to power servos and receivers, transmitters, and starter boxes. Worrying about battery life in long main events or consecutive bump-ups is a thing of the past. And turning over a hard-to-start nitro engine becomes much easier with a high-torque starter-box battery. To operate receivers and servos with 7.4 LiPo batteries, install the optional heavy-duty 5V regulator. It easily fits with the battery in the radio box, and prevents damage to gear that should not be exposed to more than 5 volts. A new 1800mAh 7.4V battery specifically for Micro cars replaces 7.2V NiMH stick packs. Rated at 20C, it is capable of powering the very hottest 1:18 scale motors to incredible speeds.
