    Yep I agree, a booster on boost goes better than the same motor in a 1 speed car
    Boosters rule.:D:D

    Has any body done a 2 cell mod to a booster??

    Yeh um…understeer makes the turning circle larger.
    Hard tyres slip a bit and allow the circle to widen out. The softest tyres out of the BCG tyre set (the pink ones) stick reeeeaaall well and the turning circle is as tight as. Be careful no to turn too fast tho, youll flip over.

    3v is used to charge standard 1.2v battery. 6V should be ok for about 90 – 120 secs for a 2.4v bit

    If it has come loose, fix it back into place and use a tiny drop of super glue to keep it there

    Check that the steering magnet is dead center in the middle. If the magnet is to one side it will not turn equally to both sides.

    Well this makes me feel a little better. I thought I was regressing into some kind of bitcharg induced juvenile psychosis. And worse, I didnt even care, so long as I could play with my BCGs on the kitchen floor evey now and again.
    I see I’m not alone…..
    The average age of the posts in this string so far is 26, so kiddies move over, the big kids are in town.

    You can work that out by dividing your motor speed by the gear ratio you are using.
    eg micro B3.0 is 30,000 rpm / 9.86 = 3042 rpm at the wheels
    BitChargUK have a page where all the ratios are worked out

    Yes…kind of. At a given voltage, the more loaded the motor is (meaning the slower it spins) the less back emf is produced. Less back emf will allow a higher effective voltage accross the motor resulting in higher armature current and higher risk of burning out.
    The two extremes are….
    1. High voltage, no load – motor spins quickly and uses very little current – little risk of buning out.
    2. High voltage, high load – motor slow or stopped and draws higher current. This is the highest risk of burning motor out.
    The guys that are ‘multi cell’ing their bits should be careful not to drive the car with the rear wheels locked, either by holding them or stopped against an object head on. This causes high ‘locked rotor’ current and this is when the chances of motor burn out is highest if the battery voltage is too high for the motor.

    Hope that makes some sense

    I think so.
    My Z with a 3.0 and the softest tyres, goes like a rocket and handles like its on rails. Range is not a prob
    Now why would I want to chop him up.

    There was 2 of them on ebay last week but both sold for around the US$70 mark. I wonder how rare they really are if we dont know the production run.

    What do you reckon one of those would be worth if you could find one:question:
    Not one for the penny pinchers 🙂
