Jamie Hanson 11-22-2004, 11:59 AM Sorry guys. I have no clue on the zapper. I had a buddy build it for me. I am not sure what was used aside from steel posts and coils of wire. I know there are some resistors, but I am not sure of the ratings. I wish I could be of more help.
WIGMAN 11-22-2004, 06:29 PM Jamie, you lied to me, you told me you built it. At any rate it works well.
Hope to race with you soon Jamie, put us on your calendar for May 7th.

eupracer 11-22-2004, 08:13 PM Is the guy that built the zapper for ya still around and want to make some cash if so PM me or email me at dj_mansfield@hotmail.com
Thanks
DJ Mansfield
Jamie Hanson 11-23-2004, 10:02 AM May is far enough out, I think I can plan for that. As far as the guy, I think be built it on a limitted basis, but I will talk to him about it.
hurricaneracing 11-24-2004, 11:47 PM Buikding a zapper is very exspensive. I have built my own by time I got the materials right I spent wwwaaayyyy more than it would cost to buy one. If you are still interested let me know and we will see what we can come up with.
eupracer 11-25-2004, 02:20 AM Yes I'm still interested. I'm always looking for projects when its comes time for my R/C. I built a motor cooling stand that my XXX-S sits on and many other little gadgets that help me out at the track. Drop me an email dj_mansfield@hotmail.com and lets figure some things out.
Thanks

EAMotorsports 11-25-2004, 09:16 PM Best zapper on the market hands down... www.thunderrc.com (http://www.thunderrc.com)
EA
J_Bone 11-27-2004, 07:08 PM WOW! $650...is there a cheaper way to make one? Has anyone found out?
EAMotorsports 11-27-2004, 08:10 PM You might be able to buld one for about 200.00 less...but it will look crapy and not work very good. If you want the best you have to pay...Or just mail your cans off to someone with a good zapper and pay them a few bucks a can. Any good motor tuner offers this service.
