My 4.8v monster
 

Have i created one of the fastest zip set-ups at this time. It has 3.4nx motor, red gears, 2 internal batts, 2 external batts--with the ff2 body top. All aside from the springs, custom antenna, and other mods yet to come. Tell me what you think. THis thing goes wayy too fast--it clears the with of my kitchen (about 10-12 ft) in under 1/2 a sec. (too short to count)

Does anyone know the record for the fastest Zip, becuz, I'm out there to break it:D

another plus about this mod---I have not drained the battery since the first charge, THis thing keeps going and going and going. Now that i know its capabilities, I replaced the 3.4 with a 1.6 and the reds, with blues too keep it more controlable.

Get some kitt racers gears and a r-spec then its the fastest 1/64 scale ever told about


payaso edit: be nice, or pay the price...

I think I still have the fastest, 11.6 mph and 1.75 in a scale 1/4 mile (see signature). I checked times with a simple lapcounter . It was very easy to make and use, way easier than doing a dual cell mod!

No offence but all I race is 1 cell. I think more than one cell is a lil cheap unless you race for money. Single cells seem more "pure" & i just feel cheap when driving a dual cell. It really shows the timing, talent & real speed of the driver. Plus I enjoy technical tracks a helluva lot more than drags. I'm not saying dual cells are bad but in a way its like a drug. Made to enhance but eventually it'll take over & have some nasty side effects*insert puking smilie here* Dual cell cars can be fun I admit when jumping but with a good friend & two different frequency single cell cars you can do more than just drag. Plus I already whoop my friends in racing enough (we play demo derby & other games more now) Maybe its just because I'm the kinda person who turns all the driving aids off in my racing games just because I 'm the "I should learn to do it right because it makes me feel better about myself & I can call other people wussies for turning aids on & laughing when they say "please enable the aids" when I host in online racing"

Now thats a mouthfull :)

Enjoy your dual cells

BTW: Good move on going back to the 1.6 on your 4 cell. High speed motors (3.0 & up) burn up easier when using multiple cells. Kinda like an old Nascar Qualifying Engine (made to run 3 or 4 really fast laps but will wear & burn if run much more) Good riddence Nascar made the single engine rule


My english teacher would be proud :) Were doing a few persuasive essays in English class

Did you modify your circuitry?? Or are you suing stock?? I know if you use that many cells, the pcb would fry instantly. And, what do you use to charge it??

How do you get your antenna all rigid like that? Is it a diffrent antenna than stock?

p.s. pick up a r-spec trust me it smoes the nx 3.4

so would the R-Spec run with a ZZ?

It is a custom antenna (solid core wire). Performace wise, i don't think it does much, but i like it because it can be bent into any shape and stay (Much more rigid than the stock flimsy piece of crap). I charge it with my modified controller which runs on 4AAA batteries. It uses the stock charging timer, which seems fine for me. I ordered a lights, and better transmitter for it (allelectronics). I also modded the pcb for best performance (trial and error using 3 old pcbs).

will someone answer me???

oh yeah it runs better than the 3.4 nx alot better

so it can run with a Zip???

well my 2f2f car runs it i dont know about earlyier generation zz's
