IC Tag problems - question
...two of my Dnanos, (older cars) skip laps and are thus unuseable with the Kyosho lap timing system. My Kyosho ribbon placement is good, all the other cars are fine and the track is less thick than RCP, so its not the setup — I have confirmed it's only specific cars.
Is it possible to add a core trasnponder or something to the bottom of the car? I really don't want to replace an entire chassis, nor should I have to spend that kind of money every time the somewhat fragile built-in tags stop functioning properly. Cars are not US spec ...so no warranty; just looking for a fix.

..that is certainly an elegant integration of the Giro-Z (at least that's what it looks like), but I was kinda hopping that someone is using/tested the CORE IC tags with the Kyosho timing ribbon.

What brand of Dampener system is on that 917? Look no holes and that has to be the lowest body in the line up of cars so far.

you would have to try the f1 sized core transponder and those are hard to come by. the standard size is much to large for a dnano.
i agree, the built in adheared transponder to the chassis is a good idea but these things can and do go bad and it sucks to have to replace the entire chassis to get a new transponder.
it would have been nice to get them separately like the mini-z models which are placed on separate bolt on plastic holders (bumper for the f1).
i just got the kyosho ic lap timer myself however i do not have any f1 size core transponders. i do have tiny generic transponders which i will try using with the kyosho ic unit and flipside software. if this doesn't work now, i'll work with fsr to see if we can get it to work.

Yes the f1 transponders will work with kyosho flipside combo.
I have 1 car that I tape the transponder on the bottom.
