epoch help....
 

ok so I want to buy an epoch..I've got a mini-z so i figure i can use the prefex remote from that, and just buy a chassis...

What I wanted to know is some information about the charger...
like would i be able to charge the epoch with AAs in series or is it more complex than that..If so does anyone have a schematic?

any help would be much appreciated.
thanx in advance

GT-ahh, what are you using to charge your Mini-Zs cells? You can do your own simple charger for the Epoch, but it would require very careful monitoring during charging. If you can find a power supply that puts out 4.8V and 0.1-0.5A or so, you could do a timed charge. Honestly though, I'd recommend just getting the charger - let us know if you'd like to order from the Shop so we can get you a quote on shipping to Oz. :)

my mini-z is running 650mah NiMH AAAs and im charging with a standard fast charger (takes just over an hour) the charger automatically detects the cell capacity and charges due to that....

yeah so approximately how much would shipping to Sydney Australia be for a chassis?

"get off the footpath?" You aussies are great! I spent 2 months in AU and I love all of ya'.

Ok, here's what I want to know. I don't want to spend 3 hrs looking through Mini-z.com to find this. How long does a Mini-z run on a full charge?

45min to an hour.....:D
