i pulled that capacitor off a few days ago and i didnt notice any change in the range. i will try replacing it with a piece of wire soon. also my friends 35mhz spec ed skyline has the cripple capacitor AND the giant green cap on C3.he got 15ft range after pulling the cripple cap off. we then tried taking the giant green cap off and replacing it with a 104 cap. this dropped his range down to 5 feet or so. also this link has electrical diagrams of the controler http://hammer.prohosting.com/~oba8/bit/ according toit, C3 is part of the charging circuit! i have not compared my controller to the diagram yet but i will.
