Frequencies?

It seems to me that the frequencies which are "banned" in the uus get a lot less range because of other appliances being used by them such as 57MHZ 45MHZ and 35MHZ, if i am correct than this sucks because i just ordered a 57MHZ 350z off toy island. please tell me i am wrong.

You're wrong (well, maybe you're right in theory). My 57mhz red rx7 get's great range with the crip cap snipped off the controller. If the range sucks, it's probably due to design of the newer cars/controllers.

So it all boils down to where you are, the interference you get in the area, and what car/controller you're using.

I don't think the newer controllers have a crip cap. Do a search for the 350z on these forums. A lot of people have asked about the crip cap on this model. I don't think it's been found because it probably doesn't exist. I think the conclusion was to change the controller whip attenna to a long extendable one and to change the car attenna to something better (and longer).

I ordered a 350z too and should be getting it soon. I should post my findings when i get it.

i have a 35mhz, it goes about 30-40ft indoors depending on ceiling height and how big of a room u are playing in, more range outdoors
but ive added an antenna on the car thats 3inches longer than the original[now its about 9inches total]. and ive removed the cap in the controller....thats more than enough range for indoor useage
