## What is RC Pit Crew?

Your RC car's acting up. This tells you why, fast. Pick what it's doing and get the likeliest cause first, ranked by how often it's the real culprit, with the exact checks to run.

Built by a basher, for bashers. No login, no fluff, works fully offline at the track.

What's inside:
Symptom diagnoser: 18 common problems and 80+ ranked causes, from pulling to one side to cutting out at speed to no reverse. Pick your symptom, answer one follow-up, and get the fixes in order of likelihood.

Gearing calculator: a live heat gauge that shows when a pinion swap is safe and when you're heading for meltdown. Watch top speed, RPM, and rollout move as you dial it in.

Reverse gearing finder: tell it the top speed you want, it tells you the exact pinion to fit, and warns you if it'll run hot.

Scale speed converter: turns your real mph into true scale speed, the number that makes non-RC people's jaws hit the floor.

Every cause is grounded in real RC forum threads and years of wrenching, not guesswork.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-07-18

Two new tools in this one.

PACKS
A logbook for your LiPo and NiMH batteries. Add packs from a list of common
Traxxas, Arrma and Tamiya batteries, or build your own. Log your runs, watch
the cycle count, and get a nudge to storage charge so your packs don't puff.
Flags a pack when it starts sagging so you know when to retire it.

PIT LOG
The post bash check and a parts wear log. Tap through eight checks before you
pack up: bearings, gear mesh, shocks, diffs, hardware, tyres, steering and
chassis. Then log whatever you broke. Over time it builds a weak point profile
for each rig, so you know what to carry spares of. Log a broken part and it
points you at the symptoms to watch for in the diagnoser.

Also in this update:
Everything now sits behind a bottom tab bar.
Guides moved to the end so the tools are grouped together.
Your logs are stored more reliably.
Fixed the page zooming and shifting when typing into the calculators.
