Safe bet on Micro/Bit freq's

Folks,

A friend wants to buy a microsizer/bit and get in on the action. Reading through the pages and pages of info I know he can not buy a microsizer because I have/use both US freqs (27 and 49) when racing. I keep reading the some of the other freqs bleed over. What are the safest freqs to get for drivers #3 and, in the future I'm sure, #4. Strictly talking Bits here no clones.

I have a 27 mhz bit toyota bB a 27 mhz zip zap and a 49 mhz clone i am trying to figure out how i can get my 3 brothers in on the racing action on xmas morning (if you get the idea) what about the lxx char-g's? are they actually 01 02 03 and 04 mhz?

if so being that close won't they step on each other?

There are actually 6 frequencies made by Tomy.

Bit Char-G's have: 27,35,45 & 57 MHz
MicroSizers have: 27 & 49MHz
Compact Char-G's have:27 & 40Mhz

Boiled down, you get 27, 35, 40, 45, 49 & 57.
Now I don't know if the 40, 45, 49 will work together.

LXX frequencies, the numbers are ID's:
01=27MHz
02=35MHz
03=45MHz
04=57MHz

Hope this helps...

So then it looks like in my situation where I own 27 and 49. The next best two freqs would be 35 and 57. (staying away from 40 and 45).

No, LXX Freq's are not 01, 02, 03, and 04. They are just 27(01), 35(02), 45(03), and 57(04) renamed.

I hope this clears some up.

Regarding your question however, when I got my first Bit, a Supra(45 mhz), we got spillover with a 49mhz ZipZap. With my 57, there's no trouble at all. I think that 35 is far enough away from 27 and 49 to be pretty safe, either one would be a good choice.
