XXX Project MRCG
Got my MRCG chassis and I like it. Very smooth rolls smooth like the Z. I need to get a servo and a PCB before I can give it a good run. I would like to take my modding to racing circuit and Im gonna do it with the MRCG. Thanks Color0 very nice. Careful as this takes a little time and delicate hands to assemble, but not bad. I will note be aware this is compatible with atomic (or comparible) parts only, the stock MiniZ MR02 parts wont work at all. I planned on using my stock pieces from my MR02 that I upgrades to Alloy, but they wont fit as they have different dimensions then the aftermarket pieces. The front knuckle assemblys work but nothing in the rear.
I can't wait to get this car up and running and a hot body to show it off. Now I have to find a local track. |

the car looks pretty good so far.
you know how to make the battery pack so it doesn't tweak the car right? there's a tutorial either on XMF or MZR don't remember which one it was on.

Sorry, I did it again. Did the same with my Mini-Z.
Heres an update. After spending forever I got here up and running. I ordered new batteries so these are temporary. I also wanna save to get the 2.4ghz board. Everything seems good, except a small amount of servo gitter, which I will checkout tommorrow. I have a headache. |

Removed the BS posts. Everyone makes mistakes, but rather than blatantly telling them in a crude way, gently acknowledge them and a Staff Member so the problem may be quickly resolved.
Awesome MRCG, XXX. Keep us posted on all updates! By the way, do you plan on racing with this MRCG? Cheers, Kyle.

Interesting antenna mount, although I suspect that's why you have servo jitter. CF is conductive after all so you're now using the entire chassis as a grainy antenna...
Other than that, it looks great! Tell me how it drives.

PS- I forgot to mention. I took this Board from my MR02 which was running Liths, so this board has a 2x3 Fet stack and on/off bypass. Last edited by TripleXmodder(akaXXX); 12-27-2008 at 04:03 AM.. |

7.2V indeed makes the servo jittery. I've heard the effects are sometimes permanent, which if true would explain your current situation. I wouldn't worry too much about a small amount of servo jitter anyways, when you're driving it gets all damped out by the suspension/flex in your steering.

lol nice antenna mount you got there.
yeah, carbon is pretty conductive. that' why i recommend sealing the edges of the carbon so your batteries don't discharge through the carbon plates

Okay I can't wait for my body to get here so Im making one to use for now.
***THE UGLY CAR*** This actually is just my trash body, I used it to make the body mounts. And I went crazy with the sheet of green sticker from the xmods kit. LMAO. Here's the real body I'm making for now. Of course it will be RED and BLACK. And a temporary foam bumper until I get more foam rubber. |

Well I had her running but never got to go to the local track or anything because I ended up taking the PCB right back out of her for a Mini-Z. But I wanna get her up and running again, but for good.
So atomicmods finally got the rear shocks in stock, so I FINALLY got one. (The stock MR02 doesn't fit right) Got a PN racing Pan car body. Team orian AAA 900mah, made the pack. Also got a new PCB for her. * Im waiting for some C clips for the kingpins and Bearings to come in.

Well, just need to get that "C" clip for the front left kingpin (I put a small piece of shrick wrap on it for now to hold it) and to mount the PCB. Oh, also got to decal that body up.
I really got to Thanks color0 for this one, a very nice smooth running chassis and his reccomendations for body etc. Thanks dude, Love my MRCG. High Performance Garage.

Very nice. I'm actually looking at the Pan Car body but with black dish wheels. Accidentally tried to threadlock my steel locknuts(from RS) with loctite, ended up gluing the threads and the front bushing into the front wheel now it barely spins so ordering new knuckles, wheels, also getting bearings but what do you think of the Pan Car body(like how is it?)

Well, I finally ordered my MRCG 1.1 PN Version from Kennon.. Got a new diff, some new front knuckles, bearings and the PN Mini-z Pan Car Lexan body kit. I can't wait to get it together.. I will (for now) be just swapping the servo and PCB from the old MRCG. When I get some more $ to buy my 2.4ghz module for my KoPropo Ill get a 2.4ghz board for it. Ill probably let the old MRCG go for anyone who's interested (body and all) just send me a PM if your interested. Ill keep you posted and put some photos and video up once it is ready.
