just bought a panther chariot...
 
i dunno. i kinda like my wal mart clone better. theyre about the same price. panthers have better torque but the run times are lousy... i get only 2 minutes while on the wal mart clone i get at least 5.

good thing about it is i can actually change parts in it. so im definately doing a battery upgrade and maybe engine and gears.

also for some of you people out there looking for weird clones i saw some sort of mitsubishi montero clone. i know JTM was selling a body of one but i saw the whole package. 16 bucks at the mall here.

oh well im off to tinker with my panther!

The run time is lousy cos of the poo battery!

Get a ni-mh and give it a couple of charges,then it'll last far longer!

I have a few panthers too.

I like to charge my Z 5-8 times, then run it for 10+ minutes. Absolut hilarity!

I've never had a problem with my Panthers. Can't beat the price and all the mods out there work on them.

Nathan, what do u mean? you charge it for 45 secs, then take if off, then charge again? or do u charge for like 2 mins?

krillin52 01-12-2003 10:47 PM

yeah im prolly gonna change the battery. gotta wait until i buy a soldering pen.

oh also i saw some other weird clone out there in the mall. its a weird car called thunders? ne one heard of those?

ralliart 01-12-2003 11:41 PM

Yeah i bought one of those. They are called Tunder Fighters right? if thats the one your talking about...they are pretty good i think. its my first one so i havent tried any other ones.

my Panther lasts like atleast 9 mins on 1 charge:D

krillin52 01-18-2003 01:39 AM

sure...

ne ways its ok i got my bit finaly. it kicks ass over any clones ive seen. quiet, smooth, last long even longer than my wal mart clone.

i think i might stick with micro sizers and bits. but i'll try an lxx clone just for fun.

lxx..steers slower..thers more play with aqxle.....the real deal is much better
