The almighty small 4WD dirt monster.

Once again......Its small but pack all the lastest technology equivalent to hi tech computer and machinery. Can't believe its costs a bang to let it run wild on the dirt track. 2.4Ghz spektrum module, high kv brushless motor technology, programmable computer tuned ESC with software modification and upgrade, 4 channel computerised remote control, high dischare rate lithium polymer pack, precision mechanical parts and lots more... and can fit inside a shoe box. This time its even better!!

The good news. Got AUDI!

After thinking too much about getting another body shell for MINI-Z so i just go a head spending on it...i say its an investment so i have no regret. So i bought an AUDI Touring GT body shell. It has long wheel base and its good for sprinting.

Limited SUBARU WRC...last spare



Just 4 hours ago i manage to quickly browse in to our local toy store and grab limited edition SUBARU WRC body shell which will be ripped off and used back into KYOSHO MINI-Z...although i did have one previously but this time i bought another same model for spare and future use for clean run and display. I learn my lesson from the past, "if you like it then get it with no regrets, else you'll be sorry forever". I rather not taking my chances having to wait months for another stock replacement or maybe gone forever

Dig the LAST CIVIC TYPE-R

HAHAHAHAHA!! some smart kid try to hide this box of limited edition 1/28 scale TYPE-R body shell behind some toy box in our favorite biggest local toy store in our town but yeah i dig it out! Finders keepers. Been waiting months for this body shell and without hesitation i grab quickly and made immediate purchase without second thoughts knowing this models will never ever appear again and its been a collectors item. Why? Because the body shell can be remove and match fit to my KYOSHO MINI-Z chassis perfectly since the sizing is actually the same. Plus it comes with lighting system for front headlights and rear brake lights which need extra re-routing to the power source. Ahhhhh...i'm so happy today. My animal instinct was right when some force persuade me to take a quick visit to the toy shop. YESSSS!!!!

Another costly bad luck.


I spent all afternoon enjoying hours of radio control drive around the track when suddenly accident struck. Two of my MINI-Z suffer costly parts damage as shown in the picture. Now currently order new stocks of parts and some upgrades amounting more than RM$500! YEah, yeah...i know this is hobby. Passion worth more than just anything in life.

Mo spare parts.


Have been away from my MINI-Z for a week, now i pull out my little buddies and played all afternoon. Then bought some new parts to replace some worn outs. Its radio control madness this week. Sure i've dish out too much budget on my hobby, well if it bring happiness why not. ;) :D

Oooo yeah! 15 minutes charger!


Ohhh! thank goodness! finally found salution to my aging problem. No more long hours waiting for battery to charge. This one is like hot pizza from the oven. Top noth products from "GP PowerBank High Speed Charging for only 15 minutes!!" Good stuff for my R/C models addiction, I finally can play all day! I did burn my pocket just to dig this charger out from the shelf but for long term investment this one worth it.

Night tuning.


Like everytime after several runs tuning is a neccessity. Like this one it need chamber and toe adjustment plus i need to put cement solution onto the loose pinion gear near the ESC module. Hopefully tomorrow i have less tuning work and get back to the modelling and design work. Oh no! Its working days tomorrow.!!!

Fun afternoon with R/C


Here's what me and my buddy enjoy this afternoon. We have superb spin off around the track near the seaside. Luckily i bring over 3 sets of battery cell to me hours of fun time. Good thing is that the weather was superb fine and the wind blew strong cooling us off while having fun chasing around the track. My holidays well spent.

Happy labour day! time to enjoy!



Ah!! its holiday today. Time to ignite back passion on mini-z rc cars, through sleepless night i've fixed back and tune in the X-mod and MINI-Z for next afternoon run.

Bad chippy day!


How unlucky i am, one of my radio control FET chipset got toasted after successfully rev at around 60KM/H with fully charged batteries, smoked smell like rotten egg. Looks like i need to find a spare FET IRF7389. Anyone have a spare FET to donate please drop me an e-mail. Thanks.

Beautiful evening Mini-z

This evening i went over to he stadium car park to play MINI-Z radio control and took picture with my PSP equipped with GoCAM (chotto shot). It was cool!
*** i resized it to 640x480 for easy web viewing.

SUBARU crash into PSP!


Another unlucky day with my KYOSHO MINI-Z and my PSP. I hit the brake but skid and hit my PSP, lucky the camera attached on PSP not damaged, jus some scratches at the back of PSP disc deck and battery.

Happy sunday on rc!


I've met Ian today for him to handover my purchase on mini-z collection. I finally got special NSX KYOSHO 1st generation chasis (MR01s) with hop up handling parts and performance wheelsets. Plus some additional accessories to feed my IWAVER MR02 worn out parts. Today i brought out three R/C to the local carpark for test drive at 5pm and finish at 8pm. NRX-18 NANDA doesn't satisfied my fun as the battery drain very fast in less than 15 minutes. However two mini-z manage to keep the fun for more than 30 minutes and didn't get over heated over ESC parts after long endurance sprint. Besides smaller car took more public head turns than bigger brother. I have great time today. so happy that i almost forgot some client project and finish up my 3d model work which i have to settle this week. Ok time to catch up some side income stuff, lol :D
