ZipZap / Microsizer Question!!!
Ok guys here is what I need, I bought the red zipzap motor and put it in my microsizer and it's FASTTTTTTTTT, but i put the red gears and rear axle on too, and i'm not happy with how it looks, could someone help me? I'm not sure what I want to do, I have 2 extra axles, maybe put the rims of them on the front and just buy hubs? Any comment will help, thanks alot..

hubcaps?/
thats a zip zap rear axle right, why dont u put zip zap hubcaps on, i do the same thing on some of my zips, i just try to find a pair of hubcaps that sorta match the stock bit rims. If you count the teeth on your stock bit rear axle, i believe they are the same as the red axle from the zips...

Dok, i think the orange from your bit and the zip rear axle are the same teeth, so i dont think itll make it any faster, then all your rims will match, i tell you what is super fast is the nos (yellow ) motor in the bit. super fast

Well I switched rear axles and I noticed a major speed difference, so I don't know what to do.. Orange rear axle worked, but it is slower...I don't know why..

the red must have more teeth, i put some of the bright chrome rims from my mustang zip on and it looked ok, right now im running my zips all with bit pcb's and red gears and motors, and my bits with the nos motor and stock gears, all 6 of my cars are super fast now

the red ZZ gears are for top end, the green ZZ gears are like stock orange Bit gears, the Blue ZZ gears are for low end. That is why your Bit went faster with the red gears and motor, you had more top end. get the hub cap set it'll look better

If you have a zip zap, put the front wheels/hubs on your bit, then you will have matching hubcaps and the same size wheels all around. My bit also handles better like this.

You know everyone says that they are putting the zip motors in a bit (red or yellow) and that their bit becomes incredibly fast. Well I tried this in my bits with both red and yellow motors and all the gear combinations and I found that my bit is faster with the zip motors only for the first 5 or 10 seconds that I run...then it gets slower or as slow as a 2.6 bit motor....i even tried single, double, and triple charging but I get the same results everytime. Anyone know why this is happening?

yah i noticed that too, and i think people are just over reacting and psyched about it [noobs]...im guessing some dont even have a 3.8 to compare to...because my ZZ motors were slow as i had expected

Well, I put the red ZZ motor in my rx7, put lithium batteries in the remote & charger, and it runs incredibly fast for a long time, I can definately tell a big difference between my stock 2.2 & the red ZZ...and yes I did just buy my microsizer a few nights ago, who cares :P
