Digi Q info
Could everyone post what they know about these little cars. I think they have 2 motors and use infared signals, but I want to learn more. From the little I have read it seems like they have 2 motors, one for each side and the CPU on it determine how fast to run each one in order to drive and steer....

Cool, they are more expensive. And another thing is I think they have a range of something like 30 or 50 foot radius...

If there is an interest, we can get some Digi Qs in. They are rather more expensive than the Bit, and less popular, so we weren't sure how much of a demand there would be.

I've got a Nikko iRacer (DigiQ rip-off) and I like my Bits better. However, if you can get some of the Combat DigiQs (tanks), I'd be interested. From what I've heard, the tanks shoot IR beams and each hit slowly disables the tank. Could be fun.

Cool, do you have a link to a page on the manufacturer's web site where I can check these tanks out?

Nope, sorry. I read it somewhere (just rumors), but I forget where. There are some pictures here.

I have a Digi Q and I just got the special controller. It allows the user to set different parameters: acceleration, speed, braking, stability. It really makes the Digi Q alot more controlable.
As far as speed, a Digi Q KILLS a Bit Char G with any motor 2.2b or anything else. I have one with I think the aqua gears and a 2.2b motor (the endbell is red) and my Digi Q is ALOT faster. It's like night and day!!
If anyone has any questions or wants to see pictures of the controller or anything please let me know.
