I recently destroyed my ACL riding BMX and stumbled upon Mini-Z to pass the time as I heal. Anyway, I'd like to make at track like yours and maybe start a club around Seoul, South Korea. It'd be great to know a bit more about how you started the club, what you need, etc. And more about that track, it looks dope. Thanks for posting and I look forward to learning more.

Great video, nice club track. I have a few Mini-Z's too but my all-time favorite are Dnano's, I have my own club setup too with 3 Home Circuit tracks. They're much smaller 1/43 but nowadays there getting pricey but the track is easier to setup, change configurations and tearing down and the best thing is the built-in transponders and the small mass of the cars break less and 1 cell lipo batteries that last quote a while racing. Again great video

I bought a second hand mini from Japan. Its a little jittery when driving and it wants to drive on its own when the radio controller is off. Can I get replacement part to fix the problem and where?
@bryandickerson53657 ай бұрын
This looks great, but the scale speed is SO fast! I’ve also watched the drift cars and that looks fun too, but the drift angles, like the real cars is so extreme. It would be cool if we could come up with a hybrid version that lowers the scale speed and allows some drift, somehow lowering the grip to a more realistic level without the extreme drift angles. Imagine being able to play around with understeer and oversteer like in a full sized (non-drift) race car!

Great video, very helpful - thank you. I already know that I want to start my RC reunion with Kyosho MINI-Z. Just can't decide on my first (but not last) one. Should I got with RWD MR-03 or 4x4 Crawler... that's the question. It's so hard to pick the first one! :D
@jarvzRC10 ай бұрын
MR-03 is my choice! Though I'd only get back into it if I could race at a club... I had two attempts at Mini-Z in the past, early around 2004 then again 2008, and quit each time.. This time it has stuck since I've been able to race

What is the runtime of a stock brushed RWD ready set compare to brushless?
@jarvzRC10 ай бұрын
Haven’t tested the difference between them and I usually switch batteries between races so I don’t know the answer. In home practice though, for both brushed and brushless , I’ve found that one pack can last for 2x 8min races and drop off on the 3rd race. Or just doing lap practice they last 20-40mins

Thats weird youre only running RWD touring cars. I mean if you ever want to step up to 1/10th TC thats dominated by AWD classes because they run faster and handle better.
