EB is the cell count of the class which is 6s
EA is 4s
in the class there is no motor limits, but u can only run 1p packs and any size hull in the class

Example- EB Hydro= 6s1p, any motor, any esc, hull needs to be rigger

Thanks for the clarification Chris. I realised today that I had the description wrong.
I'll edit the post & the video title.
It was a real drivers race between those two for the whole race in EB tunnel.
I did take some pics & footage yesterday but haven't up loaded them yet. It will have to wait until tonight.
The highlight of the day for me was picking up 3rd in the EA Sports Hydro class (that's 4s1p) with the 33"Whiplash.
It's been raining nearly all night, & still is this morning, so today will be a bit miserable I think. No Racing for me today, but I will be doing a bit of pit work for others.
Cheers.
Paul.

Here's a few more pics.
You've got to love Daves pitman (Locky) for his twin EC Rigger.
The hole in the back of the rescue dingy was put there by a big petrol mono that lost radio. The dingy was up on the bank & the mono came straight across the lake at full noise & did that. Just a few scratches on the carbon fibre mono.

I'm rather proud to say that the first photo is my 33" whiplash coming home for a heat win.
