anyone play with kyosho mini z and other micro 1/28 scale rc cars? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

HyperTek · 02-22-2009, 04:58 PM

Anyone play with those? i feel like getting one.. i notice they make a knock off for like $50 bucks.. Iwaver 02 and Firelap Nanoracer 02 which are like direct knock offs, just a lil slower but mini-z parts will swap onto em.

BoostSlideWayz · 02-22-2009, 05:15 PM

I have Xmods i love them! they are soo (mod) able. lol body kits, AWD kits, battery upgrades, suspension, chassis,carbon fiber drive shafts, motors. alota stuf to do for these things

francogt1 · 02-22-2009, 05:18 PM

i got a Micro T

really fun/fast once you buy Lithium batteries for it!

BoostSlideWayz · 02-22-2009, 05:20 PM

^ those are awesome i had the mini T deffinatly fun!

HyperTek · 02-22-2009, 05:24 PM

i guess ill ahve to check these out.. seems like they could be tons of fun .. i have an old tamiya ta02 1/10 with soem trick parts, but I feel it would be hard to keep up with the new racers.. these mini cars seem like u dont need all the expensive gear to race em.

X mods can be pretty cheap. I just ordered lithium upgrade on mine for 7 bucks. and ebay is the place to get em. you can also order on ebay S13 bodies and custom fit em on the x mod. im thinking of getting an S15 body for mine.

Yes i understand that but before the micro T there was the mini T its alittle bit bigger than the micro T. its like bigger than your palm. the micro t fits inside your palm correct ?

francogt1 · 02-22-2009, 06:04 PM

I had a mini t before but it was allright.

now i have a RC18T awd its really fun 1/18 scale

yes the micro T fits in your palm so imagine that going 45mph lol

also its only like $75 ready to Run

BoostedCoupe · 02-22-2009, 06:58 PM

i have a mini t ill sale for the cheap.

*!Zar!* · 02-22-2009, 08:11 PM

For 1/18 and smaller, I have

13 miniz's

1 mini t

1 micro t

1 xray n18t

1 xray 18r

2 asc 18r

1 asc 18t

1 eflite micro heli. lol. Not a car, but I try and race cars around the track with it.

These are all that I can remember...

HyperTek · 02-22-2009, 08:15 PM

thinking about getting this
IWAVER.COM

can hope em up.. and its like 1/3 the price of a mini z

*!Zar!* · 02-22-2009, 08:34 PM

I didn't like the iwaver.

The boards on them are cheaper.

But if you really want the car to handle, you should buy another transmitter and use an AM module.

I'm using a futaba 3pks.

HyperTek · 02-22-2009, 08:40 PM

i also got a old rc10t from a friend a few months ago, complete chassis, ready to throw my elecs in.. could use some bearings tho..

I been itching to try dirt because i never got into it... but i always been into onroad, but where i live now, its mostly dirt lol.

Since my friends are into on road, i figured i could persuade em into getting some mini zs and we could race in the garage etc.. or i can fix up this rc10t and mess with it but ill be alone lol

I know RC10t is a old racing truck (i had a rc10 team car back in the day).. and its hella outdated, i guess i wouldnt mind making it a monster /stadium truck

*!Zar!* · 02-22-2009, 08:43 PM

Yeah, I've been racing a lot of nitro onroad and offroad in the past.

Thinking about starting to race 2wd buggy mod and mod 1/12.

I raced miniz's for a while. But I could never take it seriously.

k-love · 02-22-2009, 09:35 PM

I had a real Mini-Z and an Iwaver and I liked them both! the Iwaver more because I could use miniz parts and it saved my wallet =/
Very cool r/c's though.

buggys are nuts. i always wanted to try and get into 1/8th nitro 4wd buggies.

was but into 1/10th electric stadium trucks back in the day. won a lot of races.

i still have my xxxt mfe, a beater xxt, and a beater tc3 somewhere. i should sell those and get something more fun. i keep looking at small scale crawlers and can imagine crawling around my apartment with one.

anyone want a xxxt mfe or a tc3?

civilized_drifter · 02-22-2009, 10:30 PM

i have x mods and a mini-z awd i would sell ya, i used to be into them before i had my first 240

HyperTek · 02-22-2009, 11:32 PM

hpi got a new 240z

its a m-chassis size though

1/8 is fun. I ran a Mugen MBX-5 prospec with a RB Ws7 II. SO much fun.

I'm into 1/10 electric since it's the biggest class right now in norcal.

Crawling has gotten huge in the past year.

I have three Tamiya Bruisers, a Tamiya TXT-1 and a Losi Mini Crawler.

The mini crawler is tons of fun around the house.

I'll take the XXXt and the tc3 if you want to give it to me! haha.
