Mr01, my first Kyosho Mini-Z from Portugal! Ra22 on the end!
Got this Kyosho Mini-Z Mr01 second hand on my own country!
This came to my hand's with a body to forget it! Extremelly used and cuted everywhere!! But that is a good thing... buy another
Came with reversed steering... it was a pain in the a** to make it right... but i managed...
What i noticed... only 2WD... i hope i not regreetit!!
(found out later that miniz's are 2wd, and if want awd need to buy the awd chassis) So dumb, i feel now... but hey, we all were baby's once... no one borns teached!
So the pictures of the: Mini-Z Mr01
-It came with no aerial!!
-I got to see what's inside...
-Diff off and ball bearings on the cleaning process....
-Seeing what pcb it got.... maybe some more fets... hope to solve the back spin, first!
-After the bath, i lube the diff....
-Ball bearings with bearings oil!!
-Motor it got... a Pn Racing 05!! No ball bearing can...
-I got the see the comm and the brushess.... like new!

-I got to understand why the steering is reversed... swap the fets wires... no good... swap the servo motor wires... no good
-The problem was in the pot wires...
-And now with has the right steering!
-All the cabling now work just like it should!
-The last owner had glued the front springs.... and glue come to the hole where the springs sit... i removed some of the glue for the springs sit propely!
-This is the pot i used for my steering come straight.... even with the radio trimed all the other way... it stuck like that.... :dh)
nice you got everything working...
if you had the older controller (kt-2)... you wouldn't have gone as far as re soldering the pot... since it has a throttle and steering reverse switch on top...
those are really nice rims... but i'm afraid that the lancer evo body will only take standard narrow 0 offset rims...
so i guess it's time for a new body...
do you live near a track? maybe some guys can help you out...
-The back...
And... more 2% of less back spin... i guess.. maybe my mind wants that!!
PSlater i found out that those Mini-z's are only for track, otherwise without grip surfaces even with super grip tires the back spins out everywhere) ehehe, home track it is
Time to make this mr01 into something special ....
-Sneak peak!
-Ra22 board from mr03 with 4 fets "4562", this board got the slot for gyro!!
-The AM board now goes to a project i am working on it! (xmod)
-First thing to do is remove is the power eater, the on/off button!
-Since this board comes with a brushless servo motor and i have to hack the servo case, i decided to put a "brushed" servo motor instead, since the servo case has got the right holes for the "brushed"
since i got no body for it, yet... i will give the used one a shot...
-Now that i have a home track i can't play this without a body. (Fear of broken parts) So i grab the one i got for now... use araldite glue for my removed front bumper and rear bumper, and applyed glass fiber. Now the bumpers hold!!
I dont' know if i am going to paint this, because i like the looks for now
Aerodinamics with the body on the track are good! Miniz's needs a body to race, lol!
