    Why don’t you just find better (lower Rds) performing FETS instead of stacking them…. There’s no elegance doing it this way…..

    To filter from noise generated by the motor. The RF receivers in these cars are very sensitive.

    Prowler, post some pics of both sides of the PCB and we’ll see what we can do.

    Alrighty then, after countless stuff ups and lots of useless pcb’s now lying around the place, I have finally got the PCB design done for this mod. Also the pcb will fit on top of the RX pcb.

    Here’s a pic:

    pcb.jpg

    The pcb at the bottom right is the finished product. The two misfits at the top were my “better quality” stuff ups….
    The black outline on the bottome left is what I used as the overlay to put the track desing onto the PCB.

    Good (read: sad) stuff!
    :p

    IS the gearing on the rear axles the same colour? Different colours stand for different ratios…

    Maybee they are being release with the tomy 3.0 motor. Hmmmm when I ‘ad a look at ’em in KMART yesterday they still seem to have the yellow 2.2’s in them…….. All the Compact I have bought to date have a 2.2………..

    True, my suggestion focused on 1/64 scale.

    If the transponder is small enough, mount it in the chassis cavity next to the NiCd battery. This would offer better handling than on top of the pcb cover.

    Sounds great dude, start another thread on this and post the circuit and we’ll get some development happening…..:D

    I hear you about the cluttered workspace, same here….

    You could get the Perfection Battery but its not too good (doesnt live up to its name, the most i could get into it was 112 mah…out of it was only 89mah.

    What do you mean jamie? How did you get these results? 200mah is it’s capacity, not how much current it can put out. That is dependant on the load…

    ToyEast seem to have sold out of those batteries anyway. Probably easier for me to get something from DSE or somewhere anyway.

    I just ordered 2 of the 200mAh batts on sunday no sweats. I got my order confirmation yesterday saying all is cool……

    6volt? Are those little watch batteries 6v? wow. never looked at them that close.

    No, they are actually 3V. The circuit design I’ve ripped from a site, http://www.talkingelectronics.com . My design will run off 5V using a DCDC convertor that will take the 1.2V from the car’s battery and boost it to 5V. Cool! I’m using CMOS components that run very efficiently of low voltages…

    ph2t. If you can you alter that curcuit slightly, so that the light run stops at the end, until a button is pressed, then you have yourself a set of racing Xmas tree starter lights. I see you have a 500k resister to control speed, yeah?

    I started making one, and the curcuit diagram looks amost the same as yours above, but I fried something, and never went back to it. if you manage to make one, post the diagram here. I’m sure a few people would like to scale starters lights for their race tracks.

    That’s a great idea Dave. When I get some time and if the interest is there I’ll make one. I would do a bank of LED’s that change, red, yellow, green, etc…. With a little piezo speaker for the start horn….

    Kero, get some TOMY pullbacks dude. I’ve just put an order in to toyeast and I’m getting me some of those babys. The tyre/rims are mad on ’em……Along with some 4.0/4.2 and 200maH beasts……
