Has anyone been looking at these?

I'm going to get one at some time.  I'm sure I'll wait until the Module is available for my helios controller so I don't have to spend the $80 for their controller.

the bodies look awesome. I'll be getting them for my collection for sure.

before we allow the 2.4ghz chassis we will need to discuss if it will be allowed in the stock class or we want to create another class.   the reason for this is because the new boards have stacked 3010 fets.  so under current rules are not allowed.

not that my opinion is of too much value at the present time, however I will cast my vote in for creating a seperate class.  Not to limit it to just the 2.4ghz cars but more of a 'modified' class, in that respect it would allow more people to use exsisting cars or old cars and mod them to race in this class instead of forcing them (or in my case giving me a reason) to go out and buy another car.  In addition fi we opened the door to stacked fets in our current 'stock class' we find our selves trying to 'draw the line' on if stacked fets are allowed, then why not lithuims.etc. The simplier the better when dealing with stock class rules.  Again I a newbie so take it for what its worth. :-X

I was leaning toward a modified class for them,  but it would really depend on the interest.  As long as we have 3 or more people competing in the class we can add it.

I really like the Kenwood car. Just because I've always sold Kenwood stuff.
As for actually getting one I probably would if at least 3 others had them first. I hate the idea of buying a radio for $80 though. I guess I will have to invest in a Helios or something.

MO' MONEY, MO' MONEY, MO' MONEY!!!

[Nic-z]

well if its a modified class then I am in.  I think I already have the module for it, just need the car.

[briankstan]

the modules that will work for these hasn't been released by Ko propo yet.   

[Nic-z]

but when they do lol.

[Nic-z]

okay there are two on ebay buy it now for 225 each ship'd.  feel bad for those that just bidded up to 300 for theirs lol. you can preorder them w/o tx for 129 on atomicmods.com Not a question of if I am getting one just when.  I will wait till I can get a tx module for it as well.

[briankstan]

there are several places that you can preorder them.

shop.tinyrc.com
Reflex Racing USA
RCkenon
AtomicMods.com


I believe that they all are taking preorders.

[Nic-z]

A few of them are sold out of preorders I know Rckennon was. Ebay is the best deal right now w/tx for 225.

[Nic-z]

So now that these are for sale and avalible when is everyone getting one so we can start racing?

[briankstan]

It' will have to be awhile for me.  I plan on just getting one when the module is available for the Helios. (I think, May) I'm not paying the additional $80 for the transmitter, because I won't be using it.

[Nic-z]

okay good point, though for 225 shipped I could just relist the remote when they come out with the helios.....I will wait lol, Love my mini Giant alot of fun.

wait for the pcb, small parts kit and modules...  i am willing to bet most won't run the lemans bodies due to the questiosn of what class do they fit in.  conversions are where the money will be at;)

i'll get my 1st chance to race my lemans this weekend.  if they pan out to be all that i hoped for, i'm moving all my cars except my hfay (for the time being) over to 2.4 just so i don't have to fiddle with xtals anymore.

as of right now, i'll have to follow ruf's directions for installing in an f1.  i'll wait for the official parts kits before i make the switch with any mr-015/02 and ma-010's

[Nic-z]

well I did what you did and got one and will wait till the PCB's come in and make the switch with my racers, f1 and ol's.
