it’s like totally a thing! hobbyking is definitely the place to look or if on a budget check out banggood.com, good prices on a lot of racer and fpv stuff. don’t cut corners on monitor equipment, go hard on the hi-def stuff, you’ll be glad you did! :8ball:

the iwaver 02 (as opposed to the 02m) will take the same parts as a kyosho mini z mr02, you could try rc kennon for that stuff.

the bigfoot though may find you shopping locally (vic), try gigspeed

i can’t see why not, the extra .2V shouldn’t be an issue. :8ball:

Also I always wondered what the deal with the 8ball was?

when i first joined ausmicro i’d never used the internets and i didn’t know about emoticons. i thought the idea of signing off using a little picture was way cool, and the coolest one we had was the 8 ball. so i just went with it and haven’t stopped! :8ball:

nimh batteries will give you the best bang for your buck. go for the energizer, duracell or eneloop cells available in supermarkets. :8ball:

the track to the side was a practice oval.

man, that was the best event yet! even though i had the worst mechanical day ever!!

first i broke the kingpin mount on my chassis, new main chassis required. thankfully wing wong had a spare laying around!

i managed to do the changeover between heats then i rolled in my 2nd heat and got t-boned on the straight. i noticed something weird with my steering and at the end of the heat discovered a broken h plate.

3rd heat, my steering was buggered. i knew the servo gears needed a clean so i pulled the steering apart and cleaned the servo gunk. i thought that would be the end of it all.

put it back together, no steering!! during the servo gear clean i broke a servo pot wire. i missed the 4th heat!! son of a thingo!!!11!!

normally when i get together with ph2t he’s the one who has neverending mechanical problems. this time around i suffered every problem i never had.

but it was the best meet we’ve ever had!!!!:D

interstate? intercontinental? no excuse!! get your arse down to the next burn city mini z or die!!!11!!!! :8ball:

p.s. foam tyres are the best tyres i’ve ever used on this track! i’ll never look back!

you mean like this? :smiley16:
what you see is a 50mah lipo from an ir helichopper. you’ll have to add a charging plug and a switch. :8ball:

i’ve got one of those too, been a while since i did a single cell but from memory it charged them fine.

maybe try discharging the cell hard like using a light globe then see how it charges. i’ve found the 500ma discharge rate doesn’t really kick the cell into knowing it’s gonna be used if you grt my meaning. :8ball:

that was an awesome day, well worth the 2 hours it took to set up!
