  The I waver is basically 90% plug and play with mini Z parts.
  
  As far as I know every part in the I waver is compatible with the mini Z except the servo gears, somebody correct me if i am wrong.

  the lxx and iwaver are basically the same, just the lxx was 1st generation and the iwaver is second generation and comes with a clear controller.
  
  nearly all parts fits except the servo gears.

  ph2t; we had the reverse issue the other week, by that I mean mini Z gears do not fit in the Iwaver servo box. After afew attempts by afew members at the Meadowbank meet it was deemed impossible. Do you find there’s abit of play between the gears? Curious…

  the iwaver has a slightly bigger Potentiometer in the servo box….by ‘bigger’ I mean the that metallic, protruding knob centered on the pot. This knob is the one that connects with the first servo gear in a tube-esque alignment. THe other two servo gears are interchangeable with z ones….
  
  In short, one of the servo gears is designed for the iwaver pot, which is bigger. Try as I did, you cannot forcibly squeeze a Kyosho gear of the same type into the iwaver pot. perhaps if you found some way of making it bigger, but the gears are so damn small.
