And just why aren't they 27 & 49mhz? Those are the only 2 frequecies that are allowed to US manufactures. They also advertise it as being so.
I could be wrong but I doubt it!
Has anybody tried them with a different Tx or car? Hog ???

I just did a laymans tri cell mod on mine and all I can say is WOW! Add the awesome steering this thing has and you get some sick doughnuts. Plus it all fits in tight and the PCB cover can be put back on with no problem.

They made it like that because it is cheaper and they can get around it being illegal.

Well, the other day I was at a big lots in Springfield and I FOUND 'EM!!!!!!!

So, I picked up 2 for me (1 truck of each freq.) and 1 blue (27) truck for a friend of mine. Well, mine work fine, and I freaking love 'em. I got about 30' of range straight on my 49 Mhz one. The only problem is, is that my friends controller doesn't work right. Like, you can charge the car up on it, and when you have it on and hit a button, the LED goes on, however, no signal is sent out. So, unless one of you guys knows what I am talking about and could help me fix the problem, or send me a spare 27 Mhz controller, (I knew I shouldda gotten that micro sizer one at the hobby shop laying there) I am going to return it for a different one. I felt really bad for him though, it kinda blows.

New pimp here.

Any idea on what the motors are rated at?
Popped one in one o my zips and it hung with the purple motor in a short drag race.

I went to my Big Lots and got the last two they had(both 49 mhz

). All in all, pretty kick ass for 5 bones.
