Default Novelty Tank Mod


http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/rc/7485
Here is a link to where to find these things they are great fun at the office! It's always fun to shock your boss!!! literally too!!!

These are fun for a little while and if I didn't have any real R/c Experience I might have been satisfied for a while but I am looking to mod these two tanks starting with the reciever and transmitter, I will post some pics later of the internals. First off I would like to upgrade the xmitter and receiver. If I can simply modify existing circuit board components without changing the reciever and transmitter, that would be the ideal way for me to go (Ex replacing metal antenna thats twisted around a screw with a soldered on wire in a tube), any other ideas for boosting reception on crappy components until I have time to change the tanks onto a blank aluminum plate and start from scratch to make them really interesting. Any other Ideas would be great. I will try and post more pics of the whole project tommorow(tanks internals and remote)
