The TITC inside line with Salton Dong – Day 4

The 21st edition of the TITC is in the books and once again it has been an epic event that is like nothing else in the world.  As the newly crowned Modified Champion, having just had his first TITC experience, Michal Orlowski put it perfectly with, ‘everyone needs to experience this at least once in their life.’  During this year’s event we have been having daily catch ups with Hobbywing’s technical support guy Salton Dong to get an insight into his work but today we are handing you over to the man himself to wrap up thing here at Infinity RC Addict.  A huge thank you to Hobbywing for making Red RC’s coverage of the 2025 TITC possible, this was a special one.  Now, over to you Salton…

Today, our team completed the statistics on the market share of power brands for three classes in the inspection area of the race.  This was a very time-consuming task, but we felt it was essential to understand the power choices of participants in major events like TITC.

In the hot environment of Bangkok, choosing a reliable power system is crucial. If you weren’t on-site, it might be hard to imagine the various electronic equipment failures that occurred on the RC Addict track during the race.  Some led to serious crashes, while others caused sudden loss of control.  Whenever these strange incidents happened, as a technical support representative, I always tried to understand the situation and speculate on possible causes as quickly as possible.  Regardless of whether the incident was caused by a specific brand or device, it served as a warning for us as well.

Fortunately Hobbywing has gained recognition from a significant portion of users and has demonstrated exceptionally high reliability.  The data we collected, as mentioned earlier, shows that in the OBL class, 75.6% of users chose our ESC and 65.5% opted for our motors.  In the Non-Boost class, these figures were 70.8% and 88.9%, respectively.  While we are pleased with these results, I would also like to express my gratitude. We look forward to seeing you again next year.
