will they work?

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.

will they work?

Post by mr_feet_13 »

I saw that hobbico.com had the rc microsizers. are they the same as the tomy bit g? I thought i read somewhere that they were tomy's us counter part is this true. THe reason i an asking is to see if standard bodies from toyeast for example would fit one i am thinking of getting? Im new to the micro rc hobby so i have a lot of questions

Thanks
Ben

I dunno if MS bodies fit bits or not but Micro Sizer and bits are not the same. Hobbico makes MS and Tomy makes bit char G. I know my s2000 body for MS fit on my bit char G chassis but I had to cut the tab a little thinner?

I'm sure Hog will be able to answer this for sho'

microsizers = bit char-g they should be nearly identical as far as using bodies. microsizers are made by tomy and shipped to hobbico who packages them here and distributes them in the us.

TOMY's bit char-g is better cuz there's japanese on the box :-D

j/k.... but it seems like people have better experiences with them...? ie, payaso's 350Z..

I only have one Bit char-G, but the quality is just a tad better than Microsizer I've bought yet. It just tracks a little straighter, turn evenly in both directions, the gears are a little quieter, the tires are a little stickier, and just doesn't have all the little issues I've had with my Microsizers.

That range on it sucks though, and mine came with a 1.0, not very fast.

I know Microsizers are made by Tomy, so I wonder if I just got lucky with my bit, but I see others saying they like theirs better too, and that's got me thinking... :???:

I own more bit's than microsizers and I find that to be true. I dunno what kind of quality control they have over there in japan but it seems that they're doin their job better. I would think that both of the products come out of the same factory. They just get packaged different. The differances are minor.

I'm with the "Bit likers" here.. I don't know what it is, but I just like the bits better..

All my bits run the best.. I have a 49 Mhz MS that runs just as good, but I guess the bits seem more exotic or some shit with the jap words...



Just finished runnin my Fairlady through puddles of water, and it's still kickin ass..

Did I tell you that the range is freakish on it? Unlike anything in this world...lol
