Post All Clones Here
 
we should start a thread of all the clones out there?
1.)they have to be as big a a bit,zip zap,epoch
2.)must be able to move six ways and R/c
3.) must have link,pic,or website
4.) try not to list the same exact car if possible
5.) put all clones here on one thread

im starting this just to see whats offered out there. we never no now with zz out maybe compines will get on the micro band wagon and if you buy one give a review so we know if its good or bad

Was thing along the same lines. Good luck on tracking! These thing are mutiplying faster than a virius! :eek:

Some other info maybe to add to the breakdown.

UPC product code # if possible.
FCC ID number if has one for either or both 27 & 49 mhz.
Seperate/intergrated charger.
All avaiable freq 27, 49, 40, 35, whatever in the line.
Number of bat's required. { 2AA or 3AA + 3AAA etc }
Any or all removable/customize parts.
Where usualy found. Walmart, Toys R Us, RS Generic vendor.

This may require a databae or a spreadsheet to keep strait.

PS: I figure why we are seeing seperate control/chargers now. Simply easer to get past both FCC and any copywrite's problems.

I think there is a lesser example of a list somewhere...I can't remember where, but I can tell you I've seen Bensu (Bullet), Nikko IRacers, Digi Q, a couple of off brands, etc. When I have time, I'll try to post additional information and pics..

BTW, the yokomo's came out with a smaller version of the PY-1 (petit maru).

I bought a Micromite for $10 at a local grocery store and after a day or so, the steering went bad. I've seen the Bensu Cars at a booth in the mall and I'd swear the quality is better and the bodies have better detail and decals. Maybe similar on the surface, but there are some noticabl differences. I do have a Huale clone that is every bit a Bit (sorry), and it scoots, especially since I changed the tires. I paid $15 bucks for it at a Gun Show of all places. Nothing like buying ammo and micro rc cars in the same place...kinda Walmart without all of the "atmosphere". I don't have a Bit to compare it with, but everything I've seen, even down to the guts in the transmitter looks the same.

Notice this one says char-g on the box but then look at the car name "cyclona". If you look at picture too the PCB cover is a clearish yellow plastic. This looks like another clone that is meant to fool people looking to by char-g's.
