Here's one that went so far as to basically copy Tomy bit Char-g's instruction sheet. It kept referring to the Toyota dB open deck (yellow)

Has anyone seen these? They're called Fit Racers (From Walgreens). They look alot like Microsizers.

I know, all of the clones seem to have fast motors. I liked it so much that I used its motor in my slower ZZ. Plus, now the FitRacer is easier to control!

The motors are estimated 2.0 to 3.0 ... I think. It can outrun my Microsizer (1.0) by about 2-3 times... Makes it able to traction roll and stuff ;-)

illegal frequencies in clones
i just picked up some clones in the bubble (the pix are here somewhere under teh dont get scammed thread) from a hock shop at 12 bucks each. they went through 4000 in under 1 week!
anyways i just got the 35, 45 and 57 hz frequencies. the 27 hz works on the same as a zipzap or bit. but the fwd is reverese and viceversa!
cool to at least have some of the hard to find frequencies (or illegal)

I just went to a local Westlake/Ace Hardware store and bought my first mini rc car. Its called a "Shen Qi Wei". It came in a plastic dome container and has lots of decals and not a tall roof like others. It looks more like a real car than other I had seen so I then went to the local hobby store and they are selling the following;
"Micromites"-rounded dome container, chrome wheels comes with 3 cones/pilons $24.95
"Precious"-rounded dome container, chrome wheels, clear windows and green gears $19.99
"BitChar-G"-Rectangle dome container, white wheels, with name its gotta be a copy, $19.99
The 4 above cars look like the same chassis from what I can see through the plastic with the exception of the green gears seen on the "Precious" Car. They also had the "Microsizer"-Kit car in box, Hobbieco/Tomy real deal, not a copy. $29.99 (on sale) so I bought 2 of those for my kids Christmas.
I opened the "Shen Qi Wei" and went for a drive. It would go 15 feet easily then would stop. I would raise my arms/controller and it would go another 10 feet (25' total) which makes me think a longer antenna on the radio might help some cars. I'm a brand new guy this week so if someone has already posted this info, I apologize. Otherwise I hope this helps. I will attempt to post a somewhat fuzzy picture of the "Shen Qi Wei" car in the dome. Randy

Sorry for the giant post. My photo editor has lost some dll files and I can't get it open so all my pictures are giant right now. Like I said, I'm a new guy here. Sorry!

I have a 'Precious' bit,
It works great straight out of the box, I have got the real deal yet, but as far as I can see all the parts are the same as the real Bit..
I bought it at the local petrol station fo £10.. I went back to get some more but they had a different brand in that dont look so good.
I also have another clone (SUPER RACING) that looks like crap, smaller wheels, yellow body, black windows (merc CLK) will be good to butcher to make a bit speed boat... (has anyone tryed this by the way?)
