Speed Checkers are not the most accurate things in the world, or so I've heard.
Anyways, how can i fix my range problems with my MSPro? I read about a thing called the "Cat5 mod," can anybody tell me what that is? Do the Auto Modellista sets have the range problems too? Here are all the range mods I've read about: Cat5 Cripple Cap More voltage in controller (ie more batts in the controller) Telescopic antenna (on controller) Better/longer antenna (on car) |

I have not heard of putting more voltage in the controller, but I'm pretty sure it'd mess up charging. The Crip cap is a little thing on the board. Look for a tut to do it on QFM. A telescopic antenna is easy. Get a cheap dome clone with the antenna. Open it up, and unscrew the part that the antenna screws to. Open up the bit controller, and take out the windy antenna (be careful, it flies out, so point it away from you and other people). Trim the plastic piece from the clone until the controller can close with it in there. Solder the antenna wire from the board to the metal part, and glue it right below the void left by the old windy antenna. Close it up, screw in your antenna, and you're done! |

As far as your comments on the Japanese...you have a problem with my asian heritage? |
WOW!! i had no idea that cat-5 was even a mod... lol i have like 40 feet of cat-3 which has a thinner casing and is a lot lighter.
its cool cause theres 50 strands of wire in the bundle, and all the strands have different color codes, so you can match it to your car's color scheme. i just started using this stuff in my cars... like a couple days ago. i use the black w/green wire, cause my car is... i mean was a black slk with green edges. (the chassis mealted when i left it on my home made charger too long on a half amp charge.(yah... kinda sucks)) its cool tho, the only things that died were the batteries and the chassis. oh yah that cat wire is hard to solder with because if you make a bend before you solder it, the casing will mealt right off the bend... so make sure its strait for at least a cm before soldering, make the bends after you solder it, its easier, just so you dont have to resolder another wire on it. (batteries hate the heat) |
