did you all know copper brade (solder wick) works a heck of a lot better for the small stuff, it kinda absorbs it all somehow, but you have to use a higher heat on the soldering iron, standard heat wont let it work right.
i use that wick stuff alot!! it cleans the connections up real nice. it is kinda expensive though, like $2 for a really small roll (5'), so i only use it for the small stuff, the larger stuff i use the solder sucker... it works really good, but only for the bigger stuff, it doesnt seem to clean up the connections as well as the wick on these little cars.
BE EXTREMELY CAREFULL you might accidentally desolder a resistor and find yourself trying to solder it on for over an hour!!! or you might accidentally suck up a resistor you just heated if your using a sucker...
i did this stuff a while ago to relocate the "huge" parts on the pcb to fit it in the body.
