Just love the way you fast guys share information, as I have limited resources to test and find the best match for my cars and my driving I will keep reading and working on geting good results for this average Z driver. One of the hardest things to do is accept that a car that is 2fast is slower even when that is proven at the track. thanks again for sharing information I will use what I learn and share when I can. This type of interchange is good for the Miniz hobby.

Thumbs up 2.4g wow gotta love it

got the upgrade on my 2.4 car done today by PN......i was gonna shelve it till the module came out for the ko radios ....but rc kenon has the kt 18 in stock so i said w.t.h........so i bought one just to try out the upgraded board......
UNREAL!!!!!!!!!!!
I had been driving my a$$ off all day setting the lap record...then philip lowered it .....then i lowered it again......8.532 sec....not bad for the layout.....
so i take all of my ad pan car and transplant it all on to my new pn upgraded 2.4 chassis ...
im thinking that if i get within .3 sec a lap ill be happy.............
not only did i get within .3 of the lap record but i lowered it another .2sec...
i really like the kt 18.....it has alll the same perks that i use on my ex1-ur....
except for that annoying reverse delay.....

Hey Grant, did you stack the fets? Or did you go single 113's?

you are rite, the only thing bad about the 2.4 is reverse. I was racing Philip in stock on Friday night and beat him for the first time in history. I had a speed07 comparied to his 70 turn stock, so I had the unfair advantage. But even with the advantage he usualy beats me. I got him becouse he was still trying to get used to reverse on the 2.4.

I was messing with it all day today. Once you get the hang of it, it's not that bad, but it would be cool if you could dial down the .2 to .0 using ICS.

BTW, 8.5 is smoking for that track.

Ya had to say it.... Just when I was feeling all warm and fuzzy about my 9.1...

The KT 18 is a much better radio then I expected. They did a really good job of covering all the bases this time.

Did you upgrade the wheel like Philip?

no, I'm keeping my helios. But I don't think I'm going to upgrade my son. I think he'll be just fine with the kt 18.

@Yasuji - Those PN ANo113 Fets seem like the way to go. I'd love to keep my ASF MR02 stock but if I want to run a motor like an Anima II I need to upgrade to a better Fet than the 3010's. I've seen a post by someone who said he's yet to fry a stock AD board with any PN or Atomic motor, even an ANIMA or a Chili, but I am known to mash the throttle pretty good...
Looks like I'ma be getting a 2x2 AN0113 (4 total) Fet job on my ASF car. Thanks Yasuji & rharris for ALL the great tips and info you post on the forum by the way.

I have an atomic chili i'd like to run on my asf open mr02,would a 2x2(4 fets total) of 4562's run that without any problems? As i already have some and don't really want to have to buy more!

I'm thinking that from what i've read (and i'm not the best driver either),maybe i'd be better off leaving it stock and using a stock r?

hey guys, do you think that the 2.4 is a better upgrade than spending that money towards upgrades for an AM [old mr02]?

in my opinion... the 2.4ghz asf is the way to go...
here's my review...

Got a chance to run my AWD ASF this weekend, very, very impressed. The steering was the best in a AWD I've ever used. The response was the most impressive, with steering and throttle control. I felt, and my friend who I let drive it, thought it to be noticeably faster response compared to AM. Also where we drive is notorious for glitching, no problems at all, crystal clear reception. The X-Speed AWD ASF was what you would expect, smooth and fast. Motor does get much warmer then I've experianced in the past. Run time seem to be about what I know it to be with the AM boards. Was using KT-18 radio, very light, and suprisingly, not a bad feel(did not think I would like using it at all), still can't wait for the KO ASF Module.

i've tried tj's 2.4 ghz car - stock with stock r motor on a rcp track equivalent to 2 wide l's and 3 wide ovals (it had a 13 meter back straightaway)... and it was a handfull... pretty fast, almost crazy fast...
