did the dual cell mod - a few questions from a newbie here
ok i got two 120mah 1/3 aaa batts from QFM to fit inside the chassis, lots of dremeling (you can see the sides of the batteries through the chassis just above the charger clip holding area (for lack of a better name) but they fit just fine - had some trouble with the wiring - got it working - my question is how do i tell if i fried a cell? i may have left the iron on the cell too long - it made a small hissing sound - i also did the charger mod so i get 3.0V from the remote - charge for 3-4 min and i get around 3-4 min of full speed runs - this is with a 3.8 pink motor and green (high speed) gears - oh this is a microsizer btw - how can i tell if i fried the cell - it seems to work ok - i just want more runtime from a 4 min charge
its like freaky fast, i have to use soft tires up front and stock in the rear - it spins from a start without steering - with stock front tires any touch of any direction sent the car rolling end over end - now i get picture perfect high speed drifts - its so fast its unbelievable - im thinkin of getting the dB body and poppin a third cell in there above the circuit board
this is awesome - all credit goes to this board too btw or tinyrc.com - i showed up some zip zaps - they didnt even want to race me after they saw that i spin the tires - this was with one nimh and a 3.8 in a very small room - they all want some now
