sorry lazboy, im not always sure of the electronics of things, i just read in another post about the cripple cap no1 has ever found one in a Compact

[Admin]

if u do decide to seel it for spare parts then can i get the front 2 coils……its at the front where the magnet is drop mi a line if u do decide to sell it got_rice7@hotmail.com

[Admin]

i did it i just took a small finishing nail and pressed on it why i hit the sidoering iron on it and it poped off worked fine and took a whole 30 sec

[Admin]

very nice job, but i have taken a look, both inside the controllers and the cars and i’m not prepared to damage my bit whilst incresing the range, it should be done by the professionals, not any novices, take mod chips for example, they are so cheap to buy, but so expensive to install.

Hi,

My bit char-g’s cripple cap was on the car instead of the transmitter as well.

I’ve added a page to my site with fairly complete info about cripple capacitors, with lots of photos and links – including ones where I successfully removed the SMT cap from the car PCB:

Hi,

Having just bought a bit-char G recently that had poor range, I opened up the transmitter – and the crippled capacitor was not there (just like some of the others).

However, after some poking around the web, I learnt that the cap was on the car instead!

I’ve added a page to my site with fairly complete info about cripple capacitors, with lots of photos and links. It has details on how to deal with new batches of cars where the cripple cap is found on the *car* instead of the transmitter:

You have to adjust the lever slightly each time until you get it right, but I know what you mean. One of my Compacts constantly inclines to the right and I can’t get it to center too well. The wheels seem to have a bit too much freeplay too.

Shouldn’t be a torque issue with the Z – mine’s fine, they only run a 2.2

Cool i know i was one of those *nEw* visiters

[Admin]

Sorry found a site where the mod is already

http://http://tinyrc.com/qfm/racing/mod_08.htm

its at the bottom

[Admin]

Shypo well ok but i still had to look

also i was taking about the chip on the CAR

Lancer_evo can you please post the pics my 953 chip fell off the car so i now know that is not the chip you are talking about but sounds like a HOT MOD

[Admin]

Good to hear that!Youll find the buttons are of a better quality!

[Admin]

ok, finally got around to doing this. went well.

I actually find the buttons more responsive now as less pressure is required to activate the switch.

I replaced the left and right switches (left one was semi broken). I had to thin the top of the controller cover down near the right switch to stop it from being constantly on.

replacing the switches like this without actually needing to could be some kind of extra responsiveness mod I guess…

[Admin]

Oh – I know it’s a big ask, but could we please have 100×100 avatars on the forum upgrade, as long as we host them ourselves? I kind of miss my usual ones 🙂

Hmmm… against the blue, stitch and the SiR Civic don’t look so crash hot 😀

Size isn’t too big 😉

[Admin]

I plan on getting it – brings back childhood memories… from the 70s.

Damn – I definitely need a walking frame :p

[Admin]

The box has two hinged sides, flip it over and you can see the rest – well, if the cars wern’t on top that is 😉

The nice thing is that it has removable partitions in some slots, and a carrying handle at one end. Ten bucks from Howard’s storage

[Admin]

[Admin]

Lazboy theres is no crip cap on compact charges so its kinda a waste of time looking for it.

cheers

Alex_lopez_2003 i noticed in your sig that you think the nissan Gloria is very ugly, u dont want to happen to trade or sell me the body do you?

[Admin]

Aaron do you want to give me a hint also about whether it would be cheaper for me 2 buy a speed racer and Fairlday Z set off of another company overseas or you, i much prefer dealing with an australian group.

thanks

[Admin]

well if you want light mods then i think the bestcar to go with is the Bb open deck but apart from that it pretty much up to your imagination and skills to how much you can modify it

[Admin]

Cool video – great work 🙂

[Admin]

I think i have found it might do the mod if it works it would be cool

DOes it work for any one eles coz i one got one bit and cant affor more for a while

[Admin]
