got ****in around with the Z again tonight after sorting through all the Xmod stuff for sale. lol

at first my Z had no juice what-so-ever, ran a few tests (VDC & Continuity) and got that sorted out but then ran into a steering problem where the wheels corked straight off to one side when you powered the radio. Tried playing with the radio settings with no luck and even took the Z apart again to see inside to see if there was binding or something out of place. This wasnt the issue so i turned to a thread off of MiniZracers to find it was the adjustment made through the top front panel into the POT. This was the fix and finally....i get it fired up for the 1st time!! god **** i love this thing!
very different indeed from the RS XMods! i find it alot more harder to work on then the XMods as things seem to be alot tighter to get at, the servo on the Z is litterly gears and what have you once the tops popped off unlike a boxed servo you see on most RCs out there. Although its a sleeker design and smoother transition i still feel this is not what i want in a Micro car, so with that being said i think ill turn my attention to the MRCG chassis as i mentioned previously. Then i can run a seperate cased servo up front and my own saddle-battery-pack, etc...
for now it will do but it is surely nice to see it finally running.Also surprised me to see the Rayovac 800MaH 15-min rechargeables work as theyve been sitting in my basement for a few years now.

....i couldnt help myself!!! Bwhahaha!!
im about to use this body for my Z





In the process of mounting an Xmod Supra body onto the MR02 chassis.
to do this means busting off the sideplate mounts from an existing MiniZ
body and using epoxy to permanently have them on this Supra. Then
a front body mount similar to that of the Xmod will need to be mounted
up front on the chassis. Ive ripped off as much of the unecassary parts
from the Supra (still doing so....) such as the spoiler, fake exhaust, Xmod
rear clip, side view mirrors, etc... as this all means weight and besides
that, would just get busted while driving so i dont care, its binned! lol
