The craze actually started without the poles, guides, etc. Still remembered I bought my first Hotshot Jr and lost a few days of sleep.

Where's all the Super series? Dancing Doll, anyone?

This really brings back memories.

I love it. Still remember I traded my expensive H2T motor to a faster modified HyperDash. But spoil fast oso. Use the black gear with higher top speed. Avante JR & Astute is my favourite. Den use low profile sponge tyres with bearings inside. Change gold terminals, use hollow shaft, stabiliser poles, use braces, use bearings at the wheels instead of bushings. hehe..

Canon or Nikon? It doesn't matter; both are very good.
