first thoughts on super bit and king 4.2

General discussions, new info, and all stuff that's how you say, off the hook. Bit, ZZ, SE, MT, SS... as long as it's micro, it's here.

Got mine today. Took exactly a week. I love ToyEast.

Both cars look damn nice, the Jota is just a sexy bitch, and I like the FD3S a lot more than I thought I would. It's cool the vents are cutout on the front.

I was really impressed with the power and handling of the cars, and the 4.2 is really fast, even though the first one I tried was squeally. I also bought a 4.2 pro I haven't tried yet, so we'll see if that is torquier as promised.

I race in a small areas, so range seemed ok. It did glitch a couple times, and my car started off in crazy circles. That was pretty annoying.

My biggest bitch is that they don't fit my charger bases, and I don't like to charge off my controller to keep its batteries fresh.

I guess I'm going to have to come up with something. Maybe I'll just put a jack on my controllers so I can plug my power source in when I want to charge.

Still, all in all, I'd say it was money well spent. I'm happy.
...crazy man, crazy...dig it.

i replaced my antenna with the wire from a twist tie and gained a few feet.
ive also noticed that the amount of voltage going to the board effects range. so i bet a dual cell super bit would have a lot better range. too bad the countach doesnt accomodate for a second battery.

when i dont have range issues, i have to say that this thing is one of the funnest driving bits ive had.

IF any one of dont know how to make a bit flip, im impressed..
My shen with 4.2 pro motor flips whenever i turn i think it's the acc gears.. Could be that though?
Anyway.. I remember i started a topic 'bout buttons on the controller..
But i guess the sec one is just for show?

Edit: That's pullback wheels, not super bit wheels on the RX-7?

Edit: It was stock wheels!? Damn.. they look so wide!

Evo :grin:
Do i need a better signature?
