nicad batts are charged when they start to get warm. nimh on the other hand are charged just before they get warm. so charge it til it starts to feel a little warm under the chassis and note the amount of charges given. then reduce the number of charges. say it takes 6 charges to make it warm, then reduce that to 4 – 5 charges. and remember the state of the batteries in the charger is an important factor, so do your testing with fresh batt’s. better to under charge than over with nimh’s:8ball:

it’s made in a similar way that hashish is collected, only instead of little blokes running around with aprons we use 4wd’s and drive through the skankiest terrain imaginable!:8ball:

as well as including things, how about losing some things that aren’t used such as the diary and events calender. and as for decals something printed using a colour laser printer would be fine and good for those of us without the facilities.:8ball:

well now that’s just nitpicking! for someone like me who’s only owned bits it’s plenty propo! 7 steps of steering, 5 forward and 3 reverse suits me just fine:8ball:

don’t worry about jamie, he’s from sydney, where they eat their young!:D
no bird eating spiders, just the cat eating ones. they wear the fur of previous kills as a disguise so’s they can sneak up on unsuspecting prey. they have been known to take small children and sydneysiders!:8ball:

nah, i lose interest in them if they get bigger than a bit. and the cost factor is a big hurdle for me. i’ve had a play with a mad force and i’m very impressed, but i’d lose interest before too long making it a very expensive ornament. now if someone made something like an overland or monster z in 1:64 scale i’d get interested…..:8ball:

put a switch between the batteries and the pcb, so when you’re charging the pcb is removed from the charging curcuit:8ball:
