Mini Carpet Racer 1:32

[Admin]

Sorry if you”ve seen this before but…….

I’ve always wanted to have a mini RC with e V8 touring car body. A couple of years agoI found this 1:32 chassisfor sale on the web and was facinated. Finally a 1:32 chassis which I can mount slot car bodies on. I bought a kit from the maker in Austria and set about building it up. The result: a 1:32 , 40MHz FM RC Commodore Touring Car. It is competitive with Mini Zs and can be raced on small tracks like the one I have at home. I use 4 AAA cell, KAN 650 battery packs and a micro ESC with 3 programable accelerator curves.

Its as fast as you care to make it. With X-speed 20-25kmh on the speed checker. With Iwaver X.-speed Pro 45-50 kmh before the cells give out but is undriveable.

With the right set up it is great fun to drive against the mini Zs but getting the steering to your liking takes a while.

Tyres are foam from the manufacturer on the front an self made foam strip tyres on the rear. It comes with alloys and a Ball diff, alloy steering knuckles.

Here is the site. Unfortunatly the kits are not available at the moment due to supplier problems. http://www.crt-remote.com/en/frames.htm

Micro servo from Hitec or Graupner, the ESC is from Twister and Jeti Rex 5 receiver were purchased separately.
