there are so many clones its hard to say what is out there. My thing is this. If its cheap or I dont have one in my collection I buy it.

[VooDooMafia]

Not with the newer LXX. I had some probs with the older stuff but nothing major.

thanks for the info. Now for a buying question. Should I choose it over a tomy BCG which costs a little bit more (about 2 dollars)?

Yo if you can get a tomy car for $2.00 more then go for it. Although I have not seen to many places that sell tomy’s for 2 bucks more then LXX.

I like the LXX cause I can order a ton and it doesn’t cost me that much. This way if I fudge them up while modding its not as bad.

for $13.50 I got 2 box set( 2 chassies, 4 bodies, 2 3.0 motors nice soft tires) and 2 bonus 4.2’s. So they are a good deal all in all. but like I said for 2 bucks more get the tomy.

I have been looking at getting a plane from toyeast but there are to many options to choose from. Has anyone seen there planes and can suggest one?

I was also thinking of getting this

[VooDooMafia]

there is a simple fix for the stearing on the se’s to give you 4 point stearing and get rid of the studder

/Trackmaster

How about puttin a list up in the for sale section with prices 🙂

I bet if the prices are right you will move it

[VooDooMafia]

Personally dude if you were gonna buy online I would have loooked on ebay first.

But thats cool, you should get a zipzap SE anyway aswell as a superbit 🙂

60 is Canadian. My dad dosen’t really like ordering online so… I thinl the only way for me to be able to get a super Bit Char-g would be to either wait till the summer to go to Hong Kong or buy one for 60 bucks Canadian.

If you really want one I can order one in my next order with toy east for you.

Just send paypal or money Order for the car pus shipping to you.

[VooDooMafia]

Well if you are gonna pay that much for a Super bit you are crazy 🙂 was that 60 bucks US or Canadian? which ever it was thats alot. they go on ebay for about 20 bucks and toyeast has them for 22.50 USD with some free stuff(4.2,heat sink….)

I dont have a Super bit yet(just ordered it from toy east) to compair but I can let you know in a few days 🙂

As for shipping from the 800 # not sure they will ship to canada best bet would be to call them.

Besides the Initial D sets they also have the 05 mustangs,and the Blue TT is now out aswell at the 800#.

If you are a micro RC lover then get one SE no matter what people say 🙂 You will end up liking it more then you think I bet.

[VooDooMafia]

Yea there have been some body mods of at bitpimps

The Bodies do site high and this is due to the lights and the pbc for the lights.

As for the left turn you just need to play with the trim on the controller.

The se’s have a trim on the controller aswell as the car, mess with the controller one first. Aswell as they have an Idle trim on the controller.

Run Times are crap on a single charge with stock cell and I have not heard of any new cells for the SE’s yet.

My Man crazydave has done the mosfet mod(I think double stacked maybe triple) to his SE and he was saying that he now gets better run times.

He also says that the mosfet does improve performance but its not like a fetted bit.

I like the SE’s considering I had a very bad taste in my mouth about zips. The first zip I got was when they first came out and I am sure anyone will tell yea they sucked. Now I hear they got bettter in the later gens but I never went back untill now and I love it 🙂

As for you being in Canada well do you have any hook ups in the US? or are you close enough to take a trip over?

Don’t use pullbacks they arent very grippy.

Are you for real? hehe

The pullbacks have very grippy tires aswell as they are wider then stock for more surface coverage

[VooDooMafia]

I would not say the mosfet mod is just for newbies, infact I would say its for the more experianced driver 🙂

But yea forsure everyone will have a mosfet car soon enough 🙂

Hey supra Boy you think your car is fast now go toss in some teal gears from teh tomy set and a 4.2 perfection motor(pro for 2 speeds, king for single)

[VooDooMafia]

NICE NICE

Yea I have seen some of them crazy germans make lawnmores and micro helicopters from bits now plains.

Well Mr.Amps I think you need to tell your work that yous gots some people to impress hehe

Maybe when the plains are done you can work on helicopters 🙂

[VooDooMafia]

Yea they look nice but I think the motor is alittle oversized. they are like $15USD on ebay

[VooDooMafia]

Well they have more weight then a normal zip.

you can fit all the normal zz bodies on this chassie(i think they might even sit alittle lower)

The SE’s have lights(they you can unplug for loger run times)

The runtimes kinda suck and they dont use normal bit/zz cells.

The steering is nice but a pain to get it adjusted to perfection(still working on mine)

They lack some torque but I hope this will get corrected with some time.

Speed is OK since they come with a stock red motor and blue gears.

I tossed red gears and a 3.8 in mine and it moves nice.

Anything lese you need to know?

I would have to agree with micro amps to some extent. Tomy is better quality yes and drives better but you do need to work on them before they will preform to there max.

Now if you want to start modddin but are not to sure of your skills then get clones only for the fact that they are cheaper so if you mess it up it not so hard on your pocket.

if you want out of box good car then get a MS or BCG but make sure to get a higher mhz or you might find the range stinks without any mods done to it.

voodoomafia, what region of Canada do you live in? and thanks for all the info anyways.

I am in Ontario dude

[VooDooMafia]

Dude go with the 2 speed its well worth it even for controll not in racing. Its a pain to get up off your but to flip the car back over lol.

As for motors and other accessories you should really check out http://www.toyeast.com the shiping is alittle high but is not to bad if you make an ok size order.

I 2 am in canada and I can say that you are lucky to have ms in the stores by you. We have nothing but clones here and they are not cheap. I buy most my stuff from toyeast I just wait a month or so and get abunch of stuff.

If you want next time I make an order I can order in some motors or other stuff you might want for you then just ship to you that way its cheaper on shipping.

thanks a lot. I wnat to be able to drift my microsizer but I don’t want to spend alot of time modding or changing my car. Will a 2.2 motor work for drifting?

Yea if you wanna get anykind of drifting(or as goodd as a bit can really drift) you need to keep changing parts adding mods till you have what you are looking for.

You also have to remember that every car is different. One person might havea car set the way it runs good on there track but move it to a different surface and that car is done.

So take the basics of drifting you need speed and power along with good controll and the chassie has to be weighted correct(both in rc and rl(real life).

So take all those things and start playing with different combos.

If you want a drifter right out of box then you better go bigger and get mini z or even bigger then that to have any chance of a Out Of Box drifter.

“the funs not all in racing but also in working on the cars”

[VooDooMafia]

WHAT about CANADA hehe when we gonna get the Mat?

Hey merc you guys should have an exclusive “Croc Hunter” car 🙂
