What are the RC crawling competition classes in the Philippines?

RCPinas official competition guidelines cover Class 1 (C1 Open — scaled street legal rigs, 4.19" max tire) and Class 2 (1/10 scale, 4.3"–4.75" tires) with three sub-classes: Stock (beginner-friendly out-of-box rigs), Pro-Stock (heavily modded center-skid builds), and Open (performance-oriented, all chassis allowed). Class 3 and additional classes are coming soon.

What is Class 1 C1 Open in RC crawling Philippines?

Class 1 C1 Open requires a scaled-down street legal rig through an 11" gate. Max tire size is 4.19" (manufactured), wheel size 1.55"–1.9", wheelbase 255–313mm, max -60 scale points. Rules require front/rear bumpers, windshield, electronics cover, no exposed shock towers in bed, and chassis-mounted servo only.

Center skid only (no forward skid links), minimum body specs apply, and chassis with bumper must be 3 inches longer than wheelbase.
