Well I don't know about each individual board, but here's a good starting point from a thread started a few weeks ago.

No gals here. We had one once, but we scared her off when everyone started paying too much attention. The jury is still out on betty.k. :???:

Anyways, I offered the info I had in the thread S&M just linked to. We haven't even been able to compile a comprehensive list of all the micros out there, because there is so many variations, much less the max voltage of each board. I thought I was obsessive possessing the knowledge I have of these little cars, but that would just be insane. :shock:

thanks for the link chaps
i did read that thread a few days ago wile searching for the amswer to my question , i kinda dismissed it as it talked about bit boards not zipzap
but i take it the bit char-g and zipzaps are basicly the same

on a related topic , if the board will take 5v what motor would that be with as i persume a hotter motor would put more strain on the board than say a servo conversion due to the higher amp draw
