zippos customs mini z
well here is my deal of the year, i think anyway.
from the looking i have done i believe its an mr-01 it has a bunch of alloy, and carbon fiber, and i believe a sway bar on the front. if i'm wrong on any of this please correct as i am very new to these. they guy that had it before me had one of the battery contacts come out of the battery tray and he can't find it. so i was joking around and told him i'd give him 20 bucks for it. he said ok. so it has no tx, but i have plenty of those. 2 traxxas ones, and the one from the tsunami. the wheels are alloy, and he has another set of blue ones i get as soon as he finds them. it was also in pieces when i got it, so please tell me if something is put together wrong. future plans lithium ion, power switch bypass, some sort of powerful motor, something balanced between torque and speed. so here's what i got http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0847.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0850.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0851.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0853.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0854.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0855.jpg and can someone tell me what this is, the wire configuration looks like the spiders, just different colors, but it has a big capacitor on it. it came with it. and i haven't pulled the shrink wrap off of it, but it looks like it has fets on it. http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0856.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_0857.jpg |
not sure if its a spider( don't know what they look like), but for sure it is an external powerboard. great job overall. everything looks right, but you sould put on the atomic mods damper plate system.
|
SUPRA! it is a supra right? Looks good, and a great deal for 20 bucks, as for the model, i don't know but it looks to be a mr01.Good luck and have fun with it.
|
same body style as one of my slot cars. get the castrol paintjob on it.
|
cut the heat shrink off, heres whats under it. 2 fets on one side, 4 on the other, any clues?

Old GPM external "turbo", I think. Decent thing from what I hear, but doesn't compare to the newer Nellies or Spiders. If you can figure out for sure how to install it, I'd give it a try, otherwise I'd leave it be. The new Fairchild 8858 FETs are nothing to be sniffed at, and upgrading FETs is a very well documented process.
Your front end looks severely toed-in but otherwise I'd say you did a good job putting it back together. And a working MR01 for $20, I'm jealous. :) |

How much are Mini-Z's usually?

this is not the right place to ask that but you can pick one up second hand for 40-100 pounds or 65-160 dollars sometime`s even cheaper depending on were you look

Very nice Zippo. Do the iWaver bodies mount the same as the MR02 I've been straying away from them because of the rear mounts I haven't been sure, so used to body posts :lol: but nice collection of them!
|
@stampedekid, the body mounts ar the same!
zippo, i think you need at last 2 new cabinets for all of your cars! :o :bigwink: and you get a "klingon-transmitter" (thats the nickname for the kt-18 over here :lol: ). hopefully you are more lucky with your one - me and actually almost all guys at our racetrack had trouble with it... i have switch to a helios mars transmitter! |
Sweet collection! How are you liking 2.4?

so far the kt-18 seems nice, i had steering fets crap out on the board, so its kinda toast until i get a new one, but it seemed nice the little bit i got to mess with it. Quote:
and it seem like it will be a sweet addition once i get a working board. ok, so the 2.4 ghz awd board is just well, toast. so until i get a new one i put an 02 board in it, and extended the wires, so all is good. it works. i also picked up my first mr-015. so i figured id throw an updated group shot from left to right awd, awd, mr-015, mr-01, iwaiver 02, iwaiver 02, o/l in the works. http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_3096.jpg |
ok i think i finally have everything needed to put theo/l together, and i picked up a body for it ;)

this box finally made its way from over the pond. dang customs. did some dealing on this back sometime in the later half of last year, but with everything that went on i had them hold the package, and then customs took a little while. but its here
