rm 99 is normal price, i get 1 initial d set already, quite nice.
But for my opinion, u better try 1 set just 1 car with 1 controller, I'm not sure is it that u like the function or not, because the control feel abit small and quite hard to control.
Bit char-g got 2 type 1 is control car 1 is like tamiya 4x4 mini 4wd( this 1 hard to find nowadays, lucky get few pack of that), but bit char-g need to charge your car after playing few minutes,

Qsteer no need charge, just use 4 xLR44 ( small and round ) play until no battery.

POison.. yesterday at midv lagi. see it RM99.00, toy R'US also Rm99.. no discount. haih.. Oklarr.. if u all say that is normal price, then i will take the plunge, after work today. brows.gif . I have a few AE86 cars of different sizes mar. so this 1 is more for collections.

The LR44 batt is inside both the remote and the car? How come I see the video,maybe another model, he charge by touching the car and the remote together for 45 seconds.. then can play 2 minutes?

oh.. got program also? can give the link? I will try it la and see if it will work on our handphone. Eh.. sweat.gif wait.. if i get the initial d set, that means it doesn't have the feature to do this rite? hmm.. need to read more. I saw an LED on the remote, so I think this runs on infra red ( like TV controller). Thus if your handphone has IR, then hardware wise it is capable to do it already.



I have the Rx-7, ae86 and rx-8 choro-Q. The pull back and release type. I think my floor dirty.. so the rx-7 spins on the spot a few times before going straight wink.gif) hahaha..

nlik make clear about 1 thing first.
bit char-g & qsteer is different. You c ppl play that need to charge the car is call bit char-g series, that need 2 x AA for the controller and your car just charge from the controller and play arond few minutes.

Q steer is using 4 x LR44 ( 2 for car & 2 for controller ). and no need charge just direct play until no battery.

OK i find the HP link for u.

icic. okok. thanks. now clear adi.


Hmm.. about the Handphone control, have to research more. Except from a jap page:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


If i can get the program code, then maybe can modify and use (probably java), and possibly, you can use an IR usb dongle on your PC and control via keyboard.

If only the finished program is available, then perhaps can't already.

When you get Q-steer, inside got free battery there but i'm not sure is it still got power or not althought go a small plastic cover like when we buy digimon or tamakochi , we need to pull out the small piece plastic and let the battery on.

But when i play my q-steer ( first time ) feel like no battery like that, sometime the car hang hang like that XD.

Infra Red connect will disturb by something cover on it so just play at clear places XD.

Nice o zefflodo rm39.90 for that big foot. i saw is around rm65 but the box already cacat ... No brave to buy it.

oh... comic shop sell it also and still RM90 +. Now wonder if the cost is really that high for this unit? .Hummer.

I reluctantly paid the RM99.90 for the Initial D set at Jusco today. (also bought a gundam HG Rx-79 ground type)..

The 8 batteries are included. 2 for the remote and 2 on the car for 2 cars. Not bad la, the range is quite far. I tried around 5 meters away and it still responds.

Initially it could not move, but looked at the japanese guide and found a tiny little on off switch. The tiny lever at the front is to adjust the front wheel alignment i think?? haha.. cause my ae86 pulling to the right and I tried the lever and it helps to correct it somewhat.

From tech standpoint, this is quite amazing. RC without an aerial sticking out. tiny size. AB or CD band.

hahah.. now just need an oily surface and try to make these cars "drift"..

or make a tiny diodrama of the 5 hairpins..

Tomy! next come out the Levin + green silvia S13 lar.

nlik, ya that little switch is for tuning the turning of your car.
If your tyre stick alot dust or dirty thing just use some tape stick it out then can run perfectly.

I like tomy mini remote car alot. XD. Now still finding the Bit-char-G that like tamiya mini 4wd that kind car with road, need get alot of them make a big road.

So far I saw it in Jusco Midvalley and I bought mine from Jusco IOI. I haven't visited other's so I am not sure. Toy'z R US bangsar village , midv has this as well.

I Visited parkson OUG, and Metrojaya Midvalley and both don't have this.

My friend in HK says the initial D set, he can find it for HKD178.
