Bit Char-G

[smp]

Anyone else love these things? I want one! I want one! Where is teh best place to get em? I have been looking on egay, but they are more than I want to pay for a 2" car.

Yah same here i really want one but 20+ dollars for such a little thing is a rip off....ive been scouring ebay and online and it seems the lowest i can get em for is just under 20 bux ....i would buy it if it was 13 or something...

 

[smp]

heh .. 13 .. yeah, I'm about to buy one for like 25 (buy it now) .. but I live in Canada so shipping will be another 8 bucks .. yowch!!! 33 bones!!! .. which is like 50 CND .. not cool :|

Hmmm .. is this real? (only linking to egay for verification purposes) .. man I love this sh!t.. addicted! Addicted!!

Checkout Toyeast. They are a licensed manufacturer of Bit CharG cars and DigiQ cars. You can get OEM versions for $10. Read the thread and see.

they're making Mario Kart Bit Char-G racers now too.

So far it's only Yoshi and Mario. THey both come with mushrooms and turtle shells and bananas and stuff.

I have one, they are pretty cool. fast for such a small car. I put the fastest motor in in, and the little sucker screams.

 

[NutBucket]

The real Bit Char-G is worth the price they ask. They really are like scaled down rc cars. I'm officially addicted. I have 3 and have prolly spent a good $150 on them. Everytime I goto ToyEast I find more stuff to get.

Hows the shipping from toyeast? How long does it take to get to US? I'm in canada so I figure same time ... and uh ... anyone have the knockoffs? the TT ones? I'm gonna get one of those cause I can't afford the real kind.

I'm thinking about getting the impreza .. a real one off of ebay for 25 plus 8 shipping ... but I think it is 1.0 motor .. how does the 1.0 fare against the 2.6 and stuff?

 

[ed21x]

yeah, i got one and love it if you live in the Irvine, OC area, i can tell you a place that sells them for about $30

 

[smp]

Which kind did you get? Tomy or TT?

I live in Toronto

 

[chiwawa626]

I read online on the tinyrc forum that the Tomy are best then comes the TT tree ones. I was thinkin bout getting a TT from toyeast but they have no frickin CLKS! grr just some lame hondas. But i did contact this guy whos sellin skylines and Ferarri 360s for 9.99 plus shipping from hong kong, and from the pics they look like the originals, still waiting on his email...if this is true ill let u guys know.

The 1.0 is way slower than the 2.6. I had the 1.0 in my car when I got it, and then bought a 2.6 and I was amazed at the difference.

Well .. right now I'm sitting at the CC page of toyeast .. waiting .. I'm getting the accord wagon w/ 3.0 motor .. but, my friend just went down the street to see if they have em at this crazy japanese store .. called gagdets .. and I might have even seen em there, no doubt they'll be super expensive, but if it's not too much more, it might be worth while to get one tonight
Also, I'm waiting for someone to speak up and comfort me and tell me that toyeast is legit and that I dont' have to worry giving them my CC info .. and that they ship fast or whatever.

 

[chiwawa626]

Im scared of ordering the OEMS from toyeast since they arent telling you the motor type....the deal i had going for the 9.99 ferrarris turned out they were 1.0 motors. jeeze....im trying to get the cheapest way i can.

 

[trmiv]

Try Cosmogames that's where I ordered mine from. No problems at all.

 

[Nocturnal]

how far can you play with these? like 3 feet away from you?

 

[geno]

I got mine on eBay for 30 bucks shipped (US funds)

At a full charge, probably like 10 feet away. Maybe a bit more. As the charge goes down, the signal gets weaker, and they get harder to control as they are farther away.

 

[chiwawa626]

I read around online some more on forums and stuff, and i decided on the OEM bullet beacuse it was supposed to be upto par with the original. The controler is diffrent but ill settle with that since i was looking for a non-rice car, so i ordered an OEM bullet Mercedies CLK silver yummy and a nice 3.0 motor to go with it. Costed me 25.50 shipped from toyeast.com
Look forward to my posts on mods and stuff hehe...
