Post Pictures of Your dNaNo!
 

Thought there needed to be a thread for everyone to post pics of their dNaNo! ;)

Here's my Dnano 360 next to my die-cast 360 GTC. Thinking of getting another 360 body and converting it to GTC.

I finally got to run my Dnano on a large RCP track today and it was awesome! The car did hop a little bit, and the steering was very sensitive, but over all it handled very, very well and is TON's better than my Lite. I love the little guy! I think Arch made a comment earlier about how the Dnano is what the Lite SHOULD have been, comparing the two side by side I don't think so. The Lite was intended to be the same exact scale as the normal Mini-Z car's, but based on the smaller sub-compact car's. The Dnano is in a class all it's own and is strictly 1/43. But yes, the Dnano is still TON'S better than the Lite! :D :D :D!

heres my first, my second too follow...

It's nice to have some great pics in one place thanks for posting guys! :D

Hey marc, that die cast 360 GTC looks awesome! I really think Kyosho is going to release a ton of AutoScales for the dNaNo, they're just getting started. Maybe they will make a 360 GTC for the dNaNo. :)

I'll be getting my second Dnano tomarow morning along with a full set of hop-up's including the aluminum peices! I'll keep the 360 stock, and will upgrade my number two. Number two will be the Murcielago. Thank's Hammer on the GTC, one of my favorite's. I've got the 1/28 AutoScale version in both the presentation form, and the full-racing graphic's version. So it would be cool if Kyosho did a 1/43 360 GTC in both color scheme's.
I'll post picture's of my new Murcielago and the upgrades as I add theme on. I also ordered their cool set-up board with the magnifiying glass.

Anybody ever think there will be a brushless motor small enough for these guy's yet? I think the one for the Micro-T is probably the smallest brushless right now. Think it'll happen? Just curious.

My second Dnano arrived today!

Here are my two Dnano's. Finished assemblying the tricked out Murcielago.

Jesus guys....lol Step away from the site for a year or 2 and this is what happens...

Can't wait to get my dNaNos. I'm lovin the way the hobby has turned in the last couple years.

Has anybody seen the new Dnano bodies? Pictures were posted at the Mini-ZRacer site under the 2008 show thread. If I can find that thread I'll post the link here. There comeing out with a sweet Porsche 911 GTR or GT3 body. Not sure which one it is exactly but freaking sweet! GOTTA HAVE THE WHITE ONE! LOL!

Hop ups for dnanos
 

Where can i get a dnano, and what hop ups do you need to improve the car.bbskyw

Hi there. You can go to www.DnanoShop.com for Dnano car's, bodies, and hop-up's.
As usual, ball bearings should be the first upgrade! Then tires, then ball differential. Next, springs "VERY TINY SPRINGS" and carbon-fiber H-plates. Last and final upgrades should be motor and gyro. The gyro will help give you more constant lap times by helping you control throttle and steering when turning.
I would also get the set up board since it has magnetic shelves for keeping screws and springs from getting lost. Magnifying glass helps, but sometimes more in the way than usefull. Get the specialty screw driver for the tiny, tiny screws, and the hand-pump for cleaning it after track use.
Hope this helps.

heres a couple of my lambo and a friends enzo

some more pics

some more, cant wait to get hold of some rcp..

Sonik, where do you live - we ship RCP internationally? :)

i live in London, England, just had a look at the link you posted thanks,

the wide L track works out to 141. GBP, i'm after the wide L and maybe 1 expantion set, not sure what set yet,

i want the wide L so i can run mini-z's aswell as nano's and the mini-96 looks a bit tight for Z's, but from the pics it looks like 1 wide L is not very technical hardly any turns etc, but 1 mini-96 track looks nice , like a proper little track,

i was then thinking i could get 2 wide L track's but i am limited to about 12 foot by 8 foot, so i dont have the room for 2,

maybe i can get an expantion set that will give me a few more turns etc ?

or just get mini-96 and run z's on that ? lost lol ..

how do other people get on with Z's on the mini-96 track ? is it to small ?

Here's a few photos of mine.

List of upgrades includes:

- Ball bearing set
- Medium CF H-plate
- Aluminum front suspension plates
- Aluminum rear wheel hubs
- Front spring set
- Black wheels
- Ball differential
- 20 degree rear tires
- x-speed motor (depending on the track I'm running on)

very nice, exact same upgrades as my mercy except for i have gyro, and soft cf plate, the black wheels look nice. where did you get them ?:) hows the medium plate ?

I got the black wheels from the dNaNo shop in Hong Kong. I like the medium plate, it might be a little stiff, but I'm liking the way it handles so far.

Sonik, the Mini96 will definitely give you more turns, but I personally find it a little cramped for Mini-Z racing - w/ multiple cars on the track that is - great for practicing at home though. :)

heres my GTR, im looking forward to adding more of these little guys soon

The pictures are beautiful! I wanted to take pictures of mine but my dad took the cam for his trip. :( And both mirrors broke off today. I am not gonna glue them back on because I know they will just fall off again. :( I like my Lambo's wide stance.... My son picked the Carrera GT for his b-day present in May. I wonder if I can buy a white one in the US...

I set up my RCP Mini 96 this evening in the living room and took a couple quick pics of my new dNaNo...I got the Porsche 962C...

And here is a pic of the rest of the Kyosho family for a good size comparison. Mini-Z F1, Mini-Z Racer, & dNaNo...

Nice.. I have the same F1 car. I rarely drive it now. Dnano is the king of my RC collection right now. :) It is too fun.
Here is my Dnano with my diecast models. The orange GT3 RS is my favorite diecast model.:)

Nice collection! I wish they would make the Porsche GT3 RS in the bright Orange or Green for the dNaNo! I would definately buy one of those...

Ahh... I love the F40 body. It could be because I fell in love with it in the spring of 1993 when I saw it at the dealership. How much in US dollars will it cost to buy a F40 body in HK?

The body and all the parts necessary to convert it it's about $50. It's crazy expensive because of how weak the HK dollar is. Notice how 'used' my body is. ;)

on eBay they are about $85 USD shipped from Japan. I don't know how much Hobbytown USA charges, or if it is even available in the US.. $50 + $10 s/h is not bad...
I got this Online for $20, and after some fabrication it fits very well on the Murcielago chassis.

Who makes it? Part #s etc.? :)

The car comes with bigger wheels/tires than Dnano so the Dnano wheels do not fill the wheelwell completely. But at speed, it is not noticeable. :)

omg where did you get that bmw m3 from ??? that looks so nice, i have never seen the M3 ?
and its the same as my real car, i need to get that , and i thought 3 nano's was enough for me , but i got to have that, i'll put it on my dashboard when driving round town lol

Calm down. In those pictures, the Lamborghini is the only dNano. All the rest are diecast models. But I agree that Kyosho needs to make more sports car bodies like Mini Z's. I bought the diecast e46M3 for $30, I think.... They are way cheaper than Dnano. :)

FYI we do have the M3 available for Mini-Zs:

Kyosho Mini-Z BMW M3 GTR MR-02 MM GlossCoat AutoScale Body - Silver

:)

Carrera GT
 

The Carrera GT's wheels are larger than the Murcielago's. The front wheels are as big as the rear wheels of the Lambo in diameter although the width of the front wheels on both cars are the same. The body width is about 5mm narrower than the Lambo. The rearview mirrors are closer to the body so they have not fallen off yet from the side collisions. It rolls over more easily due to the height and narrow width. But the body is replicated very accurately when compared with the diecast model made by Minichamps.
