RiD3R1967's new Mini-z

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

Well im going to be quick i realy want to test it out. Long story short I ordered on june 24 and after numerous delays i finally have it 10 or more days late, I'm not a real fan of the McLaren but i needed a chassis with the same wb as the Aston and this McLaren had dark rims too, thats why i chose it. The DBR9 is going to be straight silver with black accents, my favorite car by miles and one i've drueled over for more than a year, comments and questions welcome

gratz on the new MR-02 man i hope you find it as great as i have

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

Hey guys, thanks for the comments, lol ya it does look a Zonda in the reflection. So far not so good unfortunatley LOL, idk why, but i suspect interfence, it goes crazy and drives around by itself. It hit two walls so i turned it off, lucky no body damage phew* so i wont use the bodies for now. Im going to take it out in a bit to a paved court to see how it really handles, i dont want to drive in the house for fear of destorying my diffs on our carpet

[winner]

is it AM? if it 2.4ghz there should be no interferance. but dont worry about ruining the diff, ball diff is diffently worth it

i couldnt find it but is it a MR-03? or 02? and make sure whatever controller your using is proper for it. and always make sure to turn the controller on first and then the car and when your done turn the car off first then turn off the controller.

Its an AM MR-02.

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

Thanks guys, ya an 02, and yup i followed all the instructions outlined by the instruction manual not sure wats going on, i doesn't reverse when i tell it to, either that or theres a huge delay b/c outta nowhere it rockets backwards from time to time, i sent Atomicmods an email to see if they can provide a diagnoses lol,, and maybe suggest a treatment

[Dr. Kustom]

Sounds like you have some glitch problems.

[FloydfanYodaman]

congrats on the new Z...very cool body IMO...sorry it is being glitchy for you, hope you get the issue figured out....also a big fan of the DB...but that front lip...seems a bit much?

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

thanks everyone, ya the lip is big in front of the headlightsatomicmods hasnt replied yet, i hope they have a solution cuz i have 0 ideas for wats wrong

[Dr. Kustom]

All AM boards have glitch like that. You can't really do anything about it, I recommend you to save up and upgrade it to 2.4GHz.

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

idk its really bad, it doesn't even reverse when i tell it to my micro dt was all around better atleast for now im almost thinking of returning it but i don't think theyed take it back, has anyone had the same problem?

[acerpower]

Sorry your having problems, my AM MR02 has always been good to me.
Make sure your antenna screw is nice and tight, even if it's slightly loose it could cause glitching.
You could also make a longer antenna out of cat5 cable. I did this with my AM MA01 and it greatly improved reception and stopped my glitching problems.
Good luck.

Well it turns out the problem was my lousy tx AA batteries, i charged them a couple days before but i think they're old tech and don't hold a cahrge like my newer AAA's. Thanks for all the suggestions and help guys I'm having a blast with my new car.
