    I was thinking somthing similar to Blur
    no Zs in the house at the moment. but would a RCP track with a few little jumps thrown in for fun. give people enough incentive to pull out microTs to race?

    are the guys from gigspeed on this forum?

    I was recently browsing the web and saw these and ****.
    To think how far the world has come from the epochs and MR01s to this.

    I have had both digi Qs and the digi Q R (which had steerable front wheels)
    These look like a improvement over both as the QRs were bad aswell
    Is there still got 7 steps in throttle/turning?

    may have to get me a super min hornet

    I also mentioned diffs,
    What he is expereincing is just a crappy open diff, a ball diff works well,

    the on power problem is identical to the off power,
    Because the braking and acceleration both are dont at the motor the diff affects both on and off power,

    the “diffing out” is causes but a mixture of weight balance and suspention setup, it is technically possible to remove it with the right setup,
    But its much easier to just buy a nice kyosho ball diff

    ball diff?
    and do you have brake or just reverse?
    if your slamming reverse wit rill be doing a combination of things,
    firstly under braking any “slop”in steering will cause it to “slop” the other side from the way it down under power could be “slopping” to the left,
    No ball diff chances are one wheel has slightly less traction and it powering down on that

    player 1 and 2 are comfortable 3/4 are abit arkward but bearable

    So its here,
    Took it for a blat and im really impressed with it after the total rubbish of the Mini T.
    Should put in a order for all the trick bits soon give it a stripdown and rebuild,
    With its size accuracy is likly to be a problem with cheap alloy components,
    The toe blocks in the rear and uprights castor hubs etc all should be accurate as they can alter the handling dramaticly,
    Has anyone any experience with different alloy componenets?

    would just like to say the micro mosquito is flipping unreal,
    its a similar size to a piccoZ but with fwd/back control im in love with it,
    also found it flys really well sadly they have quality control issues so some a great and some are rubbish
    Cat hates it though!

    Mine should arrive tomorrow,
    When it gets here first things its getting are a few alloy bits (i saw matts run for about 1 second before snappping a rear hub) to replace anything that looks fragile:
    front/rear hubs? Arm mounts, possibly steering links
    heli bits and make up some tierods
    Bearings
    possibly have a play with some motor options,
    and have a tear down/rebuild to asses the general quality and make sure everything is how i want it,
    then maybe look at motor options and some li-po cells (can get some pretty small LVCs and alarms these days)

    Apart from matts beast what others are floating around and in what sort of state?

    I have just received a micro moquito in the mail will let you guy know how she flys compared to the piccoZ
    MM has 3 chan (everything except strafe)
    Which is a fair effort for its size,
