I'm not sure why ZZ have got so much press, while MicroSizers have barely had any. Every article describes ZZs as the smallest RC cars etc. but clearly there is no awareness of MicroSizers, Digi-Qs, etc. Who can spot what is wrong with this picture:

As far as I know, it takes 6 controllers to run 6 cars....
Is that the answer you were lookin for tiny?

So did hobbico run out of marketing money or what? Cause as far as i can tell we're doing all the advertising.

[edited: Tech_Lord, that's not appropriate, esp. not posting it to every single ZZ thread - the rest will be removed - tinyrc]
