    and i think mod-ing the Rx is not that easy
    i heard that they use different chips (the area covered by the black substance) in the newer model

    Oh, I saw something on the web about the 1m tall Zaku-II. It shoots bb pellets as well right?

    yes, u can remote control it to shoot your cat/dog when it try to bites your BCG 😀

    For steering, If the coils can be fitted into the body a long with a metal weight or a magnetic weight (like a pendulum or something) Set the coils up vertical to the ground, and hang the weight between them, by activating the coils, the weight would move to one side, and if this changes the balance enough, the robot would probably start moving towards that side. (Maybe)

    thanks for your idea, it’s great~

    now, i’m thinking of connecting a second motor to the steering part, so that it can be used to rotate the head or one of the arm
    but i’m not sure whether the voltage/current is large enough :question:

    I tried asking TinyRC about the DansAm shells a little while back. He never emailed me back. I m not sure that he’s selling them anymore.

    How does newtown or sydney uni sound for a place to race. i will check it out for carparks, netball or basketball courts.

    The city is about as far as i could go for a z race unless its a huge meet.

    For the south side there are a couple of really nice netball courts to race on, just need people and something for the track outline.. (chalk?)

    not going to make a PVC track(seen used for carpark racing)yet cause when i buy a flat next year gonna make a home track.

    I would like to introduce myself to the 2.4v crew. I first converted my “precious char-a” to a superchar-a. This car has always been faster than my microsizer. (i dunno why) Using the same gearing and motor has made no difference. Then I converted my microsizer to a ‘nitro-sizer’. The microsizer is much easier to control. It runs very straight, though a bit slower than the superchar-a. I added a spoiler from a fast and furious zip zap to my sizer’s honda s2000 body to take away from the battery’s ugly. First off, I can’t hardly keep the front wheels of the subaru impreza (char-a) on the ground. I clocked the simulated quarter-mile time at 4seconds. (for drag-racers, that’s faster than ‘top fuel’) very impressive but hard to handle. I have experimented with all kinds of motors from 1.0 to 3.8 with the dual cell set-up, and settled on a medium gearing with a generic 3.0’ish motor. These motors have an orange’ish-pink end. The torque is amazing.

    i have the MZR dry race bearings, (7 in a set. as the wheel oposite the diff is locked to the axle, thus no bearing required.) front wheel spins for 20 odd seconds witth a flick of the finger, so smooth so quite, you cant go wrong.
    i also have the ceramic diff balls for Ball bearing diffs, and it makes your diff heaps smoother, (will not work with stock diff) and faster.
    should be one of the first upgrades you do.

    WCR is at the Scout Hall in King Steet Sandy Bay. Opposite Woolies, up an alley near the Pizza Shop and it’s from 7:30 til whenever but we are trying to have a seperate night for Bits.

    It’d be friggin wicked if u brought the track up Dave as the guys who race 1/24th scale would really like to see it as would I.
