Someone that loves the Mini Remote more than I do
I didnât think that was possible!
Maybe itâs just in the air here
Brian. I wanted to be friends. But now that I see you havenât unscrewed the wheels off of your remotes I donât know anymore⌠Iâm a little sad nowâŚ
Out of all the remotes I currently own I have not one mini
Hereâs the current remotes I own from favorite least favorite
The vx1 is a perfectly good remote. But I like the feel of the throttle on the mini better
Not saying the mini is bad (itâs a great remote) I just personally like the feel of a thumb wheel more than the trigger.
I learned binding was important the hard way. Also donât try to catch a drive that is flayling around the table at full throttle because you turned your remote offâŚ
Keep those wheels, there are things in the works. Donât lose them
No no. Iâm still traumatized from all the beeping trying to set speed modes in the olden metroboard days âŚ
I absolutely love the Mini. perfect size, travel. whatâs the readout for?
I think itâs just a sticker so he can tell 8.8.8 from 8.8.8 and so on.
voltmeter activated by that little push button below the display.
The idea is, the one flaw of the mini is that it uses AA and doesnât like nimh AAâs lower voltage. So you either have to charge the AA fairly often, or carry spare alkalines and a small phillips (or do a lithium ion mod).
Alkalines last almost forever though, so perhaps the best thing is to be able to check state of charge easily, and use alkalines.
@BillGordon lol.
PS another mod I have to do is to hit the trigger with a heatgun to open it up a little for gloved use.
Oh, thatâs pretty cool. My simple self carries spares and a jewelry tool set, but this is way better.
for ridiculous photo
Some call it a flaw, others call it a bonus â since it works great from a single li-ion / lifepo4 cell voltage
Just dropping by here to say that I also love my mini remotes. Reliable as fuck. Have not yet had a reason to use anything else, but I do want to try the Hoyt puck.
Really though for me, I enjoy the trigger more than thumb wheel
Hey guys, Iâm wondering if the mini remote can bind with different receiver than the one that come with it
I have a HK GT2R but canât manage to bind them togetherâŚ
Also any idea where I could buy just the receiver in Europe, fast ?
