Change MHz

[neo_m]

Hey

I have a

Jap Bit Char-G, 57mhz

and a

Australian Compact Char-G, 27mhz

the 57 has seen better days

I was wondering if you can take the chip out of the 27mhz and replace it with the 57mhz form the old car

if so is there any diagrams of what chip needs to be replaced

thanks

Yes you can do that. Here is the diagram

thanks for the link

what exactly is the chip that has the frequency

I am new to the whole RC scene

sorry if it sounds like a dumb question

[Zephyranthes]

I don't know where the chip is on the car. On the controller, it is the silver box that is labeled with the frequency. I'm pretty sure the chip on the car is under that black goop.

hmmmm might beeeee......

it would be much easier to just swap pcbs.

[neo_m]

yea but if you have fryed the PCB its not going to work

the reason i ask is because i already have a 27mhz car and was going to buy anothter one for cheap but then we couldnt race. so i was thinking just change the frequency in the 2nd car buy just changing the chip so that the rest of the char is still brand new.

I understand the pcb is fried, but as Hog said.

easier to swap the whole thing. I don't think you are going to be successful playing with subparts on the pcb. Removing is one thing, putting back is another.

Good Luck.

swapping out clock crystals in the Tx is a nobrainer..

thanx for your help

just talked the guy into giving us his 40mhz that he didnt want to sell to us in the first place

heres what we have got

Jap Bit Char-G Lancer 25mhz --- slow, even with Dule Cell
Jap Bit Char-G SE Skyline 57mhz --- slow, even with Dule Cell

Australian Compact Char-G Skyline 27mhz --- Super fast, same speed as BitCharg Dule Cell with the single stock battery
Australian Compact Char-G Skyline 40mhz --- Super fast, same speed as BitCharg Dule Cell with the single stock battery

USA Microsizer WRX 49hhz --- Hanvent modded it yet
