Hase anybody else gotten these clones?
I found a clone for $12 the other day at Toys R Us, and it came with an awsome Hummer H1 body. It also had a 2.6 moter stock. The only problem is the pinion gear is huge, and the gears dont match up with a microsizer. The body fits, but you have to put the front on first then the back. They're found here http://www.tisinc99.com/tisinc99/noname20.html

They are probably the worst in terms of quality control.
This was the first micro RC I bought, and that left a bad taste in my mouth. It had horrible steering, noisy gears, and horrid run time (about 1 min.), but I bought 2 more just because they were damaged and on the clearance shelf for $9.99, and the motors and batteries are good, and the charger base is handy for dual and triple cell projects. I got lucky, one of them, the Peugeot, worked excellent, had an extra fast motor, and steered great in one direction. So I transplanted a steering coil form the other one. I just looked for the one with the tightest winds, and now it steers equal in either direction, and with some offroad tires on it, it's one of my best handling cars.
Still I do not reccomend Cannonballs for anything other than project parts, or just to step on.

good idea
Yeah I mainly bought it for the body. Also I figured I would use it to try out new stuff on, ya'know like a lab rat!
ANYWAYS... I took the body off it and put on my lego tire car, so the front tires wont rub against the body anymore!!!!!?!
