Zip Zaps
Let me first start off by saying these little suckers are a blast! Even the monster truck!. Ok,
does anybody have these things? I have one car and soon to have the truck. I have thr track, BUT I will have to say you need at least 2 track sets to make one decent track for the cars, but one set make a great derby for the monster truck bashing. Ok, hre is the question... My friends has a couple, and the other day it would not accept a charge anymore. (The light on the control lets you know if it is not accepting the charge). I cleaned the connectors, checked the battery, and all the wires look fine comming of that little circuit board. Any ideas?

Oh, by the way..you can actually upgrade the motors, gears, tires (including size) and a couple other little upgrades and changes to these little suckers! For about 6.00 you get all 6 motors with all the gears! Pretty cool! 1 min charge & about 10 min run time. Good little fun!

I sold all my zipzap/microsizers about a year ago, but while I had them, they were awesome. they were actually what got my started with the hobby.

RE: Zip Zaps
tell him to return it, because that is a defect if it stops working that quickly. have you heard about the new mini monster truck by fast lane? it may be a toy, but it's pretty cool. makes the zzmm look small

RE: Zip Zaps
it may be the esc. check the wiring also. so check all connectors. it may also be the motor died. check out the motor. is all the solder still connected?
