Zipzaps in Europe
 

Ìs Zipzaps availalible (???) in Europe, cuz i might be interested in the Hemi, Yenko or Evo :-)

first i wann aknow why you ask a zipzap wuestion in the bit and ms forum...and second the hemi, yenko and evo are all bodys you have to buy in kits...so all you need is to buy a starter kjit and ten the body kit you want....i dont think they are available in europe so you would have to try ebay

Ohh.. sry about that.. I'll try ebay then! They might also be cheaper there? BTW thanks.

Maybe if you wait untill Sept. but Ebay is what I used.

What is going on in september? Manufacturers in Europe?
BTW, i didn't intend to buy them right now.

Oh, stupid me that was in Canada. Try Ebay or RCMod.

The UK version of the ZipZaps is called "Megamotors Mean Speed Machines."

The control is IDENTICAL (size/shape/colour/logo placement) but instead of the Radioshack ZipZaps logo there is a Megamotors logo.

The cars are also identical, they have the trademark same-sized front/back wheels.

They are in the Argos Autumn/Winter 2003 catalogue, at the top left of page 1138.

The cars come with most, if not all, of the motors/gearsets/tyres/hubcaps that RS sells.

Strangly, only 2 frequencies are available, due to the UK being tight-arsed with radio freqs.

If you need anymore info, contact me at alexofness@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Alex

there are only 2 freq. for MS also.

yeah 27 and 40 mhz, if im not wrong?
I guess it is like that cuz then it dont interfere with phones and such?
Well Alex Nessie it was a great help!
Are you a manufacturer or what else you might call it?
If so, could you send me a catalogue or just a copy of the page via e-mail..?
Ohh.. better idea.. e-mails coming up..

I'm actually just a Bit racer with too much time on my hands, not a manufacturer.

I'll try and scan the page soon for y'all.


I'm hopefully going to have them very soon so stay on the lookout for pics from me.

Sounds great! actually i have a Skyline exactly to yours..! (Dont know how to say it!)
