dNaNo Exposed - RCX 2008

[akura2]

another cool thing that needs to be mentioned, is that the car... (from what I was told) has the gyro built in/ included and not as an option part... and it's a real gyro.. not traction control... when you hold the car in the air and give it yaw... the front wheels actually move in the opposite direction of the yaw to compensate.... AWESOME

J! I was just posting that in another thread but you beat me to it!

[Marcro]

Man I wish I was there! These car's are the coolest thing ever to hit the RC world. I thought the Micro-T was special when it came out, these thing's rock! I desperatly, desperatly want one! I'd sell both Kidneys for one! Wait, can I live without both kidneys? LOL! How soon will these be appearing on ebay?

So then why are you asking questions here if you've already read that complete thread?

LOL TinyRC was telling me the car had a issue...LOL he was telling me that the car seemed to bog down in the corners. After I took a peak at the car he was using, the gyro was installed on the dnano he was driving.

I will be in Vegas starting Tuesday evening, until Friday, for the NRHSA hobby show. If I can pull it off, I will bring a Dnano.

It was nice to meet those that showed up to RCX.

Thanks Tim! Is the giro adjustable as far as the level of compensation it provides etc.?

I got some close up shots of the dnano chassis. David has a copy of them and will be posting them sometime. he is traveling early in the morning and doesn't get home until tomorrow night.

sorry you have to wait for them but it will be worth the wait. I got shots of just about every angle and piece on the thing.

I would have taken it apart but the probably would have made everyone mad as they were all getting to run it on the track. that, and I didn't have small enought screw driver. Did I mention that this thing is really, really small.

I was only asking about availability on ebay, no where else.

I hope the Dnano's Porsche 962 is stronger than the Mini-Z 962. I've already cracked the front bumper and knocked the lense and bucket out of place. I've since retired the body and switched to my spare Diablo. Can you tell us how tough these little bodies are? Small thing's tend to be very delicate! I'm worried that driving one of these at home with obstacles it might get damaged! Also, isn't there a light kit available for it as well?

[briankstan]

D, you going to post up the rest of the detail shots of the chassis? I'm assuming you got them off my drives. I not let me know and I'll get them posted.

[Comrade_Boris]

I have the red and green mazda dnano and the spoiler broke off the first time another dnano hit the back of mine, which was within 1 minute of using it.
