can if the dimension of the car is within 165mm (lengthwise) and 105mm (width). the lowest point of the car must also be higher than 1mm.

rollers must be limited to 6. anything that looks like rollers, and can freely move is considered as rollers. and make sure everything is tamiya.

since the track layout is unannounced, there isnt any particular setting that is best for the track. like what uncle david always say, set the car according to the track.

huhu..your front setting seems better if u put that at rear..
the rule is 6 roller setting, so u need to consider remove another 2 roller on your car.

1 more, too much braking at the front, bcome too slow when it goes to slope. u also can use sponge / sliding frp for less braking.

I just tried one pair of rechargeable GP battery 1600mah 1.2v. It is faster than the normal energizer battery 1.5v. How come my hyperdash use alot of juice from the energizer battery? if i use rechargeable it goes faster. if normal battery like energizer the speed is slower..and after two or three laps it become slow is it because of my hyper dash motor like to drink more energy from energizer battery? Or maybe my hyperdash motor that i bought few weeks back maybe a little bit problem. does this problem applys to everyone?

1.2v how come can have more power than 1.5v?

What 1600 mah for? the bigger the value the longer time it will last? any battery that has 2000 above?
which rechargeable battery better? cause for what i think here...if everytime use energizer battery during practice sure waste lot of money buy energizer battery.

so two battery power will be 3.0v for energizer and 2.4v for GP battery.
but how come 3.0v cannot produce that kind of speed? or is it i dun have gold plated terminals that make my car cannot get the highest performance from the alkaline battery energizer? cause normally when we race it is going to be energizer only. sad.gif

Erm, well, 1600, 2000 or whatever, it comes with the unit "mAh". That means, the higher the figure, the longer it can last.
Well, I think Sanyo Eneloop is quite good, energizer rechargeable batteries are quite pricey, at least RM 130 above.
If you want to go for a more economy choice, I think GP batteries will do.

Gold plated is for better electricity conduction, it does not affect the difference in your performance if you are comparing different batteries.
For racing or practice, I suggest you to use rechargeable but I have seen people using alkaline batteries. Besides that, I have heard of rumours stating that rechargeable batteries have higher output which damages motor...but I'm not sure whether it is true or not.

ok listen guys..... mAh is the amount capacity of the battery to let current flow out, the higher the value, the more current flows out... alkaline batteries have a capacity between 400-900mah only which is almost the same like NI-CD batteries capacity...that's y last time tamiya rechargeable batteries were made from NI-CD coz it's similar to alkaline.

so common rechargeable batteries available in the market is GP 1600mah batteries, if you are able to get hold of eneloop batteries, you're in luck.

remember the higher the capacity, the size of aa bateries is bigger..1600mah exactly fits into the chassis...

never under estimate power of alkalines...

rechargeables are longer lasting due to its nature. however alkalines seems to have a more stable power delivery altho its only good for like a few runs. alkalines, depend on your luck can get like 1.7- 1.8. for a one time use, thats like super juga lah. plus alkalines are lighter in terms of weight. alkalines a pair is about 47g and rechargeables are definitely heavier...like 10g more

i think rechargeables altho its only rated at 1.2v, the output may be higher than alkalines rated at 1.6 for instance, depending on the capacity mAh. thats one point to consider where there is a higher output, theres also faster motor wear and tear. another one is that, when use have rechargeables, u tend to whack the car on the track again and again until the motor overheat oso u never notice. then rosak.

anyway im using gp1600s for practice runs. i think theyre the most easily available and closest to energizer max in terms of power.

hmm kalau salah tolong tunjuk ajar ku sifu~~

scroll to the botom for a easy explanation on terminals. gold doesnt necessarily mean better.
