Super power max, I wouldn’t like to try it as it would be messy and graphite is conductive if it got in the circuit or motor there may be a problem, If you do try use a tiny amount.

uA its a Selleys product in a spray can ( 1 can would do a few million gear trains :)) we use it at work for plastic lube briliant stuff.If you drive through fluff the lubed gears dont pick up fluff but unlubed ones do.Must get around to lubing my sons car:D.

I hope that worked,I borrowed it from the tech gallery (hope thats allowed), you put the scap plastic (thin) with super glue on top of this arm ( the side thats showing)so that it pushes the pivots outward.
You only want slight toe in. An added bonus is a small reduction in drag.

Merc-blue, its not the just the slack that causes the problems its the fact that the tyres end up pointing outward at the front end as it tends to make the wheels pull out of center and when you turn it makes it harder for the spring to pull them back. Full size cars have the same problems thats why they have toe in. With my bit the results were very impressive.
I,ll see what I can do picture wise ,Leonli17

Clicker pen springs are too big and stiff (that’s what SHE said) though they might work if you cut them just the right length. Try springs from HO slot cars. You can usually get replacement slot car parts at a hobby store. I think ph2t makes and sells springs as well.

[Admin]

Thx for both of u guys:smiley2:
Aniwai can u use the springs from a pen with 4 colour in it :question: I mean is it magnetic :question:

There is a little nub in the center of the stabilizer bar, it’s the highest point. Put your fingernail on the back edge of the nub and gently pry the stabilizer bar up and toward the front of the car. It kind of tilts out, back edge first. When you put it back in, do it the opposite way… put the front tab in the slot and push the back down. It will snap into place.

I’ve had mixed results without the stabilizer bar, it usually steers sharper and, like leonli17 said, it is a little less responsive. Springs make it drive smoother, but require some fussing to get them just right.

[Admin]

Thanks ph2t, that’s what I needed… now I gotta take a look at all those AVIs.

[Admin]

Nice… I dig the ‘cruisin’ vid. I gotta get me a monkey with a camera to chase around with my little cars! Thanks for the mpeg versions, us Mac users get screwed outta the video thing a lot of the time.

The other reason to get a Microsizers car is the warranty. One of mine busted and Hobbico sent me a new chassis with very few questions asked. I have a lot of clones and Bits and Microsizers (20-something with more on the way), and I like the Microsizers cars the best. LXX clones are the worst cars I have purchased.
