Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!
 
I jsut performed the dual antenna, and the transmitter antenna modification to my car and transmitter. But i only have a 1 foot increase in range!! My car is 27mhz so im expecting bad. Are ther any other ways to increase range?:o

Take the crippler cap off the car and controller.

i have checked for it a couple times, but could you give a gooood description of where it is? And possibly a link to inctructions how to remove it and where it is? Im not sure if i have one but i want to be sure

Here's one on the actual PCB http://questformadness.com/ And the cripple cap on the controller I couldnt find the directions for.

KevBit 02-21-2003 04:02 PM

i have found the capacitor on the pcb, but i do not have the magical controller capacitor:( I will attmept removing it and will post results!
(with measurements of range!!)

KevBit 02-21-2003 04:53 PM

I just removed the capacitor, the range before the capacitor was removed was around 3.25 yards. Now its only 2.5 yards!
Turns out the mod didnt help, but it made it worse!! I will try to put it back on. :eek:

ahem......make a duel cell bit, add a third cell to the controller.......and.........that should work......

DeuceMan_408 02-21-2003 06:49 PM

Is there one of those cripple cap deals on the 4 band controller?

KevBit 02-23-2003 05:16 PM
