Hi All,
I'm after some help and advice really ...
I've been out of the RC racing scene now for over a year and I'm looking at getting back into it ...
I've been looking into the 1/24 scene and like the look of the Mini-Z MR02 and the Firelap 2.0 which is just a clone of the MR-02. Before I left RC, I did have the very first Firelap 2.0 and was kind of suprised yet also let down by this, but it was only to put custom bodies onto, so I never really considered racing it.
But after visiting the Iwaver site, I saw the IWaver 02M and it looks very interesting. I've been trying to find some info out about them, but not many places tend to know much and I've read alot of the stuff here allready, but I just need some help with a few questions.
1) For anyone who also has or used a Mini-Z MR-02 or a Firelap 2.0, how do they compare to the 02M?
2) Does the chassis extend like the MR-02 to fit other bodies?
3) What option parts are up and coming for the 02M?
4) What are the New shape FM Tx's like?
5) How does the Tx differ from the original Tx the Firelap used?
6) What motors would the Stock IW take, how hot?
7) Will the o2M take stacked FET's to run hotter motors?
I'm basically after as much advise as possible on whether to consider the 02M or a Firelap 2.0 with some Mini-Z parts as a RTR Mini-Z is too expensive for a stock item.
Also, where can I buy the 02M and where can I but the Upgrade packages from? I've seen them in the wholesale section of Toyeast, but as I'm not a business, I dont think I'd be able to join either section of Toyeast?
If someone could help, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot,
Luke.
