      Its a personal preference more than anything.

      It does make your box a little less portable/pocketable though!!

      has someone made a psx control a bcg control? i would just prefer a normal or 4 band control all those buttons on psx control and no use for them:dead:

      the bit i recommend the “tomy mods” first like new tyres, motors, axels, etc

      the bit – I had the same problem as you, I thought shypo was talking about taking the lights off a TV too. Shypos advice is always A1, so I was also wondering for a moment or too were the lights were on a TV. It gave me a bit of a laugh when I worked out what was going on though.

      2 speed controllers? I guess your talking about the 4 band controllers ? I reckon they are great, a must if you are going to have a few different controllers, and also a booster as it means u only need the one controller, and its heaps better than the stock ones

      I noticed that the auto modellista set comes with a normal controller but has 2 speed on it. I would like to know some stuff before i get the set like where or how to use the dual speed mode and also like where the hell do u press to make it go slow or fast.

      ohhhh i think u should kno….say u have a 2.2 in ur booster car, without boost it goes like a 1.0 or 1.6, but with boost it goes like 2.2 or 2.3 so it not really “boost” it actually runs the same speed as a normal bit with a 2.2 when it has boost on.

      Without boost it will run at about 1.6 – 2.0 speeds (1.9 if the engine existed), and like a 3.8 when boosted.

      There is no extra speed to be gained out of a motor from a booster set, just control in cornering. They provide half speed and normal speed for any gievn motor.

      id have to disagree with dave and char-geer. I believe that the car with boost on goes faster than the normal speed of the motor. If its a 2.2 motor, without boost its about 1.6, with boost its around 2.6.

      Lets say what others say.

      Cranga the booster sets alone are kinda hard to get but i got mine from bit_charg_oz when they has one in, but you could just buy a 350Z or Auto Modellista set and uise the 4 cahnnel controller for those boost chassis’, thats what id do.

      best gears depends on what your racing, same as a normal car, if you want acceleration, accleration gears, etc, id mainly use high speed on mine tho.

      the standard 2.2 it (my new booster) came with sucked hard! noisier than a cyclona! the gears didn’t mesh proper!…. took about 8 set ups but i cracked it and now the pullback supra shell (damn fine, comes pre-tinted!) completes the look of the drift master.

      ended up using the slower yellow nanoracer motor (more torque) and normal orange gears (my other cars still need decent gear!) with blues onthe back and purple on the front.

      Yeh Barrell got it right,
      just to confirm
      A is standard control mode (non boosted cars)
      B is normal unboosted mode (booster button works)
      C is boost always ON mode

      B & C are only for booster chassis cars
