Re: Different 2.4V Mod
Hello guys,
I just picked up two packs of the 3.6 V batteries from Jay Car…….Man the thing freakin flies now !!
Run time is in the 5 or six minute range – pretty small capacity at only 43 MAH – howeve rit is so damned quick that you cant really concentrate on it for longer than that !!
This is in fact my bit charg A – oem car that I use to perform “experiments” on – that is about all they are worth in my opinion – sounds harsh – however I highly recommend getting the “REAL DEAL” when it comes to these cars 🙂
The great thing is that once you take the tabs off the cells – it plonks straight into the BIT with no mods :
The only realproblem is the fact that you cant put the clear plastic cover over the electrics……not a real drama though – I am just using some clear scotch tape at this time – until I can work something more appropriate out :
Just have to play around with gearing now…… a bit slow to start with this standard oem set – even though it will pull the front wheels off the deck if you go from reverse to forward !! Have to do something about that paint job…….
One interesting point is that I no longer have steering problems with the car – obviously because of the increased voltage to the coils……
Next project will be a nice 2.4 conversion in my other oem – this should provide the best of both worlds – more speed – and better steering and less weight than the standard battery…..
I still wish there was a 1.75 volt cell that dropped straight in – this would fix everyones steering problems !!
Hope this helps or inspires some of you guys.
Cheers
