Short Course Truck
Realistic 1/10 short-course trucks — think mini Trophy Truck or Pro4. Bigger bodyshells, more grunt (10.5T brushless max), and a chunkier feel on the same off-road circuit as the buggies. Smaller grid than the other classes but consistently competitive — and the shells look properly cool flying through the jumps.

Batteries
2S 7.4V LiPo or 6-cell 7.2V NiMH
- • All charging must take place on the main charging table — not at your own pit table.
- • Charging and discharging must always be done in a closed LiPo-safe container — a hard-sided LiPo/battery safe is preferred, with a LiPo bag as the minimum acceptable option.
- • Where possible, discharging should be done at home rather than at the track.
- • Use a LiPo/LiFe-specific charger on CC/CV mode — no other charge profile.
- • Never exceed 4.2V per cell.
- • Li-HV users must only charge to 7.4V per BRCA regulations. Random checks will be carried out.
- • All LiPo/LiFe batteries must be charged at 1C or less while at the track.
- 1C means the charge current (in Amps) must not exceed the battery’s capacity (in Ah). To work it out: divide the mAh rating by 1000.
- Example: a 5000mAh pack = 5.0A max charge rate. A 7600mAh pack = 7.6A max.
- • No restriction on capacity.
