Hello all, I’m new here, nice to meet you guys..
I have 2 DigiQ, a Skyline Penzoil and a TT With Propo SPECIAL controller.
This is the difference, the Special Controller. This is what I did:
I did not buy the standard package with one car and one controller, I only bought the 2 cars I wanted without controller and then I bouth a single Controller Propo Special…. this controller is easy to program!!!
Thanks to this controller you can change top speed, Acceleration Curve, Steering amount and brake power. By changing this parameter you can make your cute DigiQ drive a lot better than a digiQ with standard controller.
This cars are very (and I mean very fast). So you need the controller to tune the car to your likeing. if you think the digiQ is hard to control you can change all the above parameter until it fits your skills
I’m getting some Bit Char-g in a few days so I will be abel to compare them, but My friends have some Tomy Bit Char-g.
On speed I raced on open floor a Tomy Bit Char-g with 3.0 Engine and Turbo Controller (which make the Bit Charg even faster then without the turbo).. and guess what, the digiQ didn’t care, the digiQ was much faster.
I also raced on straight lines the digiQ against a 1/32 canned car (the tin car has declared speed of about 5/6 kmh) WIth the DigiQ set at “4” as top speed, the digiQ was slightly slower
Setting for DigiQ at 5 and the DigiQ was slightly faster
Then I modified the tin car to bring it at around 9 Kmh!!! So I set the top speed of the DigiQ to 8 (maximum). The digiQ was FASTER!!!!!!!
If you feel the digiQ is not easy to control in corners, you can get the speed set to under 8 and increase the turning circle… it will help.
Yes the DigiQ takes 10 minutes to charge but it will last for 7 to 15 minutes (the Tomy charges in 45sec and only lasts no more than 3 minutes)BUT NOTE, this is why I bought 2 digiQ, while you conrol one digiQ car you can attach the second car to the conroller to recharge, so when you current car is out of juce you swap it with the other one that has now been charged and keep swapping for ever….
Also the DigiQ (as far as I know) has memory cells without “memory”, so you don’t have to wait full discharge for the car before you charge it again
To master the digiQ controller will take longer than a Bit Char-g, so the bit Charge offers a more immediate satisfaction
I never tryied a DigiQ with a standard controller, I guess it will be hard…
I hope this helps,
Oh yes you can modify the many ChoroQ bodies to fit on a DigiQ, but I have never done it so far and I think it is not a straight forward job… but then again if you want modifiction in bodies as a hobby, you don’t want it to be to easy as simply buying a body and fit it on… that’s too easy eh ehe h (Joke)
Ok, my little impression 🙂 I will tell more when I get my own bit charg…
later guys
