I have created a compilation of readily available ESCs suitable for 1/16th scale and above. The link is to an Excel workbook with three spreadsheets. Note the tabs on the lower left when you open it. The ESCs are mostly designed for 1/10th scale, but most will fit well in 1/16th scale. There is...
I went to an R/C expo last weekend and picked up a few mini infernos. White body with friction shocks. Half an hour out of the box, I realized just how crumby the stock electronics are. So what did I do? Hoped on eBay and bought Hitec HS-81MG servos and Mamba Brushless 6800Kv...
Hey folks, I've been in the RC scene for a while and its time to upgrade/trash all my RTR transmitters. I have been eyeing the top of the line models since the control can be used for ages in almost any/all my cars. What do you guys think would be the best choice? Ko Propo EX-10 Heilos...
Hey guys, I received my Futaba MC230CR speed control today and need some help setting it up. By biggest problem is with the reverse. I followed the manual and set everything up and noticed that after going forward and returning to neutral the car keeps going forward slowly. Reverse works...
Hello, For anyone that already has their H8, could you please post the list of aftermarket servos that can be put into the H8 without any type of chassis modification? From what I have read, the H8 comes with different mounting brackets for different servos. We just need a list of what those...
These are the first pix's of a NEW and state of the art Brushless ESC. We have been working with the designers for over 3 months to come up with ESC specifically for the The New Kyosho Half Eight. I will post data as soon as we are allowed to, but it is apprx. 3 times as powerfull as all other...
First up some acknowledgements: The incentive to give this a go along with great instructions came from this article: http://www.bakehead.com/minit_mods_page.htm. Now a bit of background (I'm sure if you did a bit of a Google search you'd find a better explanation than the one I am going to...
If you are looking for a full feature receiver for your Mini RC or even one that will run your 1/8 scale, this summer you will have to look no further... CC has aquired BERG. These guys are the cats ass in the plane side of things. They are the only guys that make recievers smaller than...

I started this thread because I need to purchase another radio and I have upgraded all my electronics in my RTR. I already have 4 other cars and will have 1 more. I also have a Airtronics MX3 FM that can hold multiple cars I did not really like It I just bought it because it was a good deal. So I...
Hello! An italian friend asked me to suggest him a better ESC for his MiniInferno... what can I suggest? Novak Spy is a good choice? I read it's limited to 4-7 cells, so won't it work with a 8cell pack? Another good ESC with reverse? He doesn't need a brushless ESC... Thanks
Hey guys i was just wondering what servo u recommended for a direct drop in for the Mini Inferno, a Hitec 81 MG or 85 MG? thanks
Hey guys. I just bought my Mini Inferno at RCX 2 days ago and I was wondering if you guys could supply me with the name of a rechargeable battery maker for a pack for my half 8. I also need a link to the battery protection thing if possible. Thanks a bunch. God Bless. PS I already started to...
i need some answers regarding the use of micro servo's. these are not used much nor discussed much on mini-zracer so i thought i would check with the guys here who are used to seperate electronic components. here is the situation... i am building a 1:32 CRT using the mr-02 electronics (pcb)...
Okay, I did not see a thread devoted to this subject so, with the moderator's permission, I would like to create a topic on Servo Choices - Pros and Cons. Reason being is because I am in the process of building up my own Mini Inferno, my wife prefers I not mess with hers, and am now at the stage...
I've decided to go brushless! Are there any other ESC options besides the mamba 25, LRP Sphere, and the novak? I'm going to be running 8-cell batteries and plan on using the AON 4900 since that seems to be the best choice! Thanks for the help! :)
Guys, I'm new to RC and I'm still having trouble understanding the basics. Batteries for instance. I read that a great pack for the Mini Inferno is the 42s 9.6v 8-Cell 1100mah NiMH Battery Pack by United RC Xtreme. I d/led Kyosho's manual (VERY skimpy :mad: ) and it asks for 6 alkaline or Ni-MH AA...
thanks for looking, i was wondering, could someone help me choose good electronics, at a good price(if there is such a thing). what i was looking to do is get a novak xxl rec., because it will still operate w stock tx(hopefully saving some dough). i wasn't sure of the esc, or the servo. and i want...
