Do you know who makes this AWSOME clone?

Today I received this Bit clone as a gift from my secret santa at school. When I poped in the batteries it flew across the gym and want ALL THE WAY ACROSS the floor. It went almost 100ft! It stutters at about 75, but that is still an AWSOME range! It is camo color and came stock with a 110 mah batt.
I clocked it on a 10 foot drag strip and the time came in as 1.85 seconds! My bit cant even go that fast! The range is what makes it AWSOME. I just want to know who makes it so I can order more. Here are some pictures of my bit-clone: |

Here it is with the cover off. It has a cool LED that lights up when you go forward or backward.
|
Hmmmmmm..... sounds pretty good.
Maybe because of the speacil edition sign on the car |

On a side note I got my Desktop Rover today as well! It is very fun to drive and has a huge range! (80-90 feet with no stutter)
Here is a pic: (go to the desktop rover gallery for more pics.) |
That is the Motor Works clone. I bought one at WalMart and fell in love with it. I thought it ran straight, fast and just great. My favorite clone thus far. I didn't see that body there, but I only had a few to pick from cos' they were obviously selling fast.

yo zitzap, sorry if that not ur real tinyrc name, but u know how u said that called a whatever, name from walmart, are u talkin bout that fast one at the beginning of the page?
its not the other one, the tank kinda one right> |
he is talking about the first one (camo wagon)
I found out that it is from Motor Works like he said. |
If you go to buy more at Walmart, look for the mini-motorcycles sold by the same company too. I can't get my hands on them. I've heard they can be pretty fun.

where did you get that from?? how much?? thanks |
EXACT! Replica (well all most)
Yesterday I picked up a clone call RALLY RACER for a drugstore here in SD for $10.00 and it is almost a perfect clone.
Same heatsink, Pink 3.8 motor (completly interchangable with microsizers) Same bodies (Really cool rally bodies, exact same skyline body I purchaced for my m/s. 35mhz for 3 car racing had 45mhz too. Axles didn't fit though but need to look a little closer I may just need to trim the chassis a little bit. |
Ok after looking at this clone closer especialy the axle. This is the perfect clone!
All I had to do to get my M/S axle to fit was to cut the extra plastic at the axle mount and now every thing works perfect! |
Watch what you do with the motor works cars. They are very sensitive and everyone that i know of has broken over a few weeks time.

I just used my motorworks car parts pcb, motor etc. etc. They all still work. Parts I used I mean.
Just finished tweaking the clone I got friday. I lubed up with graphite, removed the extra plastic flashing near the axel mounts. And now all my spare parts work on this clone. It is a perfect microsizer clone. |
Good to hear. I was getting a little worried about swapping my other working MW's PCB board into a ZZ. But, now I'll give it a shot and see if it's just just that one car with the problem. Great part is the steering wires come with the PCB board. Only four wires to solder and two magnets to glue in to finish a swap. I pray they don't have a component in there the burns out easily. That's what I'm think the problem is on my broken one. Called their hotline and they're closed today. I'll try tomorrow.
|
Actully I recommend unsoldering the steering wires from the pcb (it's really easy) and resolder the zips wires to the clone pcb.
|
The MW's steering is much more advanced. Having the magnets on the sides is what I like. It attracts and pushes off at the same time when steering.

Just got the...
Rally Racers from Cub Foods today. As close in appearance to a MicroSizer that you can get. Nice bodies, but they are molded in white with painted windows. Cheesey paper-backed stickers with generic logos.
http://home.mn.rr.com/johnrtse/RCmicrocars/RCclone2.jpg http://home.mn.rr.com/johnrtse/RCmicrocars/RCclone1.jpg Black PCB cover, good gear mesh, motor endbell color differs between the two I bought (pink & off-white), but a 2.2 K.I.T. motor in each made a noticeable speed improvement. The steering is ok at best- we'll see what a set of rare earth magnets do in these ;) I like these, especially at $9.99 each retail! John |
Bro that skyline is the exact same body that came on my shen clone and the disription you gave with the black pcb cover is the same as the shen's maybe they are they same company making two or so diffrant names.I have 5 cars all together and i love my shen its the fastest and handles the BEST,My bit cant hang and my zip/w shen pcb cant ether the microsizer i bought from the local hobbie shop is a parts car now becouse the stering wires broke and i got frustrated so i un soderd the pcb for parts.
|
Hmm perhaps its a Shen with a slower motor? A rare earth will improve your steering a lot. I would also do the cat5e ant. upgrade. 9.99 huh? Thats awesome but if you need to add a motor that almost doubles the price.
RIP |
I picked up a Rally Racer and put in ny 3.4 and it flies much faster than my LXX with the 3.4. I personally rank them slightly higher on the clone scale than the Panther. I think they are Shen Qi Wei's, but under a different label.

It's called a Desktop Rover. They are off road tracked vehicles. The only downside is that it costs $60 (US) The range is 90 feet out of the box, but the speed is VERY slow |
Go here to buy it:
http://www.plantraco.com/product.html It is worth the $60 bucks because it can go over antthing. It is a good change from the speedy little Bits. The Char-G Wild has nothing on this beast! It rocks! It can climb a 45 degree carpeted incline! You can also attach a wireless mini camera to it so you can "spy" on people. The camera transmits over 150 feet to any TV. Go to the site! It is worth a look! |
