50ft, damn... would look like a speck of dust at that range... seems a little over zellous to me... but impressive nonetheless.

Cat5 is ethernet wire
 
It is wire most used for High speed Internet and It is also used for networks. Here is a link http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...%5Fid=278-2011

thanks a lot. my attena fell off on my zz, it can still move and all, but the range is only 1-2 feet, if i use your mod on the controller attena, will it work? also do u think that the range will be the same or more or less. because my zz looks very cool with out the attenna. might post some pics soon!! :D

Hey, I am 15 and from Delaware. I haven't been to this site for a while but I just got 2 more zipzaps today (I always seem to lose them, then buy more) Could you perhaps explain the mod that you did in a little more detail?

The Cat5 mod is for the car. Just replace the stock antenna with a piece of the Cat5. For the controller, find a much larger gauge solid copper wire, and wrap it around (spiral) the stock antenna.

Namuna, it appears we're going to need your hand over the lock thread button.

Please try not to bump threads that are so old. It isn't going to do any good unless it is new information, and it would still be better to start a new thread.
