Title: THE IWAVER Mini Z Monster!


Marc.. RC Addict! - May 13, 2007 07:46 PM (GMT)
HI ALL,

Well guys ive talked about it and now finally i can show you it, This is my mini z monster, as you can see its a clone of the kyosho mini z monster. I admit i Hate clones because there always alot cheaper and are usually poor quality.

NOT this little fella, as you can see its just like the kyosho in-side and out, the only thing i was not happy about was the standard stock motor, it was pretty slow compared to the kyosho stock motor. But i soon sorted that out, on the wheel you should be able to see the iwaver i-advance motor, when i installed it the monster truck more then doubledin speed and not only could it wheelie it can even flip its self over. ill make a video soon so you can see it in action.. LOL small but speedy and great fun. but for now heres some pics.

looks nice mate :cool:

OliverChance - May 17, 2007 05:57 PM (GMT)
how much did that cost you? and how easy for spares it is as i'm thinkign of getting a micro myself ,

thanks mate,

Oli. B)

Marc.. RC Addict! - May 17, 2007 09:15 PM (GMT)
Hi Oli, It cost me £32.00 but i get all my stuff from hong kong as its much cheaper then buying them from here in the uk. but i have found one web site in the uk that sells the new version of my truck for £33.00 free delivery, Ive just started to upgrade this thing and its all going well, the mini z after market parts fit this perfect. the standerd motor is pretty slow so you will want to upgrade that first :)

All in all im glad i got this iwaver mini z monster rather then the kyosho mini z moster because of the price, kyosho cost's between £75.00 and £100.00

If you want any more help mate just let me know,, if you want the web shops i use ill send them to you aswell mate..

HAPPY RACING! :rc_car:

OliverChance - May 18, 2007 05:57 PM (GMT)
cool thanks but I'm tempted to get a losi micro-t because people have been saying there quite tough and at a good price,

thanks,

Oli. B)

Marc.. RC Addict! - May 18, 2007 06:47 PM (GMT)
no probs mate, yeh the micro t is pretty good, but its very very small, small enough to fall down a drain out side, plus its not very fast, but apart from that its great..

Happy RC-ING!
Marc..

ok, np mate,

thanks,

russmini - May 20, 2007 06:24 PM (GMT)
Right, here you go mate.

As you can see there are 2 different bodyshells you can use.

The shocks that are on it are Aliminium Oil Filled ones. These could do with being re filled now though.
I will include the Original shocks as well.

Also, changed the Battery Connector to a Deans one, Much Better.

OliverChance - May 20, 2007 06:58 PM (GMT)
how much do you want as ive been offered a zk2 for £70 with spares,

Oli. B)

russmini - May 20, 2007 07:14 PM (GMT)
What the Fuck is a ZK2 ????????? !!!!!!!!!!!!!


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Errrr.....

£50 Posted ??

OliverChance - May 20, 2007 07:34 PM (GMT)
also is it rtr with the charger and stuff? as i don't have any kit,

thanks,

Oli. B)

Oh and its a thunder tiger zk2 its basically the same as the mini-t but harder to get spare parts :lol:

Marc.. RC Addict! - May 20, 2007 07:49 PM (GMT)
hi russ, nice mini-t there mate, petty i spent all my cash or i would have had it if oli dont, but if you still have it in a few weeks ill most likely have it off you, as long as i dont break any of mine.. :crash: LOL

and Oli dont get the thunder tiger mate the parts are very hard to get hold of, like you say but also Thunder tiger (i think) is no where near as good as the losi mini t...

HAPPY RACING GUYS! :rc_car:

Marc...

OliverChance - May 20, 2007 07:54 PM (GMT)
but the zk2 has got an upgraded esc and motor and its got lots of spares and it comes with all the chargers and what not so I'm not sure :wacko:,

Oli. B)

heres the page for spares

russmini - May 20, 2007 07:58 PM (GMT)
Ok, as they come they run on 4 AA Batteries.

If and when you decide you need more Speed you can change that to 6V or 7.2V Rechargable packs, then you would also need to get a charger for them.

To be honest it's pretty good with the 4 AA's, You can use rechargables instead of normal Alkaline, in which case you'll just need a few quid wall charger for them.

On 4 AA's they last a Bloody long time really.


Upto you mate. This is how it comes from the Shops. Minus of course the Ali Shocks, Deans Connector and the extra Shell.



Marc.. RC Addict! - May 20, 2007 08:00 PM (GMT)
how much would you have to pay mate was it £70, if so i realy wouldnt buy it not for £70 mate, £50 maybe. BUT its up to you mate do what you think is best :thumbs_up:

putting it another way, if you get the thunder tiger or the losi mini t, im sure your like them both anyway.

goodluck mate,

OliverChance - May 20, 2007 08:00 PM (GMT)
sorry mate but I'm going to have to pass on the mini-t its a really good bargain but the person selling is my mate so i can just pick it up :) ,

thanks,
