yeah I would like to know about Z classes aswell
photoslop and 5min with the airbrush tool
the black Z isnt real sadly enough
ive seen these b4…I saw one with a mor realist lookin mouse..pity about what ur cat will do to it when it catches it
why not just add FETs? hint hint
yeah it was an rx7
and the phone remote cars use IR so youd have to swap all the circuitry…

jamie i found fix for you…
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/draconious/Mini-Z/TT_Antenna.htmlthat part is unmarked….try replacing it with a cap or resistor…
get a job…
im gonna get some to sit ontop of my monitor
how much would that hurt your finges / break your phone tho…..big controllers are much more anger proof…:angry:
If teflon is non stick how do they stick it to fry pans?
do u recon u could use those as a vacuum mould? that would be so sweet.
my miniz has been used aproximately 15 times, out doors once and ive had stuff break and the steering servo lock up, the dif is on its way out too, 24hrs would destroy a car. I wouldnt be suprised if the stock motor melted the rear end and the fets gave up the ghost.
the run time should be improved because the new FETs have a lower internal resistance.
one of my suppliers has them in Australia for 87c each…lmao
pity it wouldnt have all the elecetronics / safety features tho.
dude put the fets in parrallel and it will have even faster acceleration! muhahah
nice work man, I removed my fets and jumpered them for a drag car (no reverse but o-so-fast) but I couldnt find a suitable replacement FET so thats as far as I got. What fet are you using? If my FET supplier has them in stock ill put some on my mini-z FET order.If someone could design an interface so you can connect it to your PC. hack the bike computer and get the pulse singal or however it works and run it into a serial port. You could use this data to generate bhp graphs and the like on your comp. now that would be an effort. maybe using a mouse roller as the input would be an alternate idea.
cough* shypo cough* werent u gonna get some of these in?
asif u could sleep with all that noise anyway…
2). No parts can be replaced. (apart from wheelnuts and pinions)
thats a bad idea as I doubt anyone would complete the race. In real 24 hr races all parts can be replaced. ive seen a 24hr go-kart race they replaced a whole engine in 8 minutes. Maybe the rules should be teams of 3, 2 race cars and 1 set of parts (everything apart from chassis/motor) 2 chargers and 4 sets of batteries.
Basically i dont think a z will last 24hours of constant use.
The 2 car idea means that cars can be swapped via start stop in the pits and this means the cars can be given a cool-off period. Constantly running a Z for 24 hours would most certainly be the end of it.
As for motors I think 3 or 4 motors because motors get quite hot and you want to be able to service them and let them cool off.
4 sets of batteries would be need as then you could have 1 set ready to go in the other car and 2 sets on charge. When a car comes in its batteries immediately go on charge. If it was only 3 sets there could be problems with some of the slower chargers (1hr chargers) resulting in having to wait or running semi-charged batteries.The only problem i forsee is having someone keep count of laps. that would fair suck. A lap counter would be a must. but does anyone have a counter that could go into the thousands? 30second laps means almost 3000 laps all up…

ok im gonna be placing an order for IRF7389 FETs, anyone who is going to the race day I can supply at $3 each for 8 and under, and $2.50 each for 10+
only problem is i need to get an order of 50 minimum all up or I wont do the go ahead…
so PM me as soon as possible with the amount you want.NOTE: If you are interested and will not be attending the race day (for those in other states), I may be able to supply depending on how many preorders I get for race day. So PM and I’ll keep you updated.

do you guys need help setting up? Me and shypes could probably come early if needed….
last night i went out to near springwood to flog some wheels. My guess is its slightly over 1hr from the cbd, with good traffic. anyone gonna be driving from the city? maybe we could car pool.
does anyone have an epoch? and are they bringing it? -
