Important question : 2 weeks ago blown the mosfets of a 4qd 200 . Bought a new one from 4qd , installed it , but the speedo only works forward , not backward . Switched the wires from the interface from the left speedo to the new speedo , but doesn´t make any difference , the new one only works one way , so stick forward or backwards makes no diference . Has anybody got experience with 4qd 200´s ? Need to know quick because of event this weekend ! Mailing to 4qd just takes to long ...
Thanx....marco
Sounds like the usual quality that 4QD are producing on their new 4QD-200s to be honest. We had some old 4QDs in Storm II when we entered Robot Wars New Blood a few years ago and they were solid as a rock (except for shattering a PCB but I suspect that was my driving style).
More recently 4QD-200s have been dying regularly when run with Perms (and LEMs) so a growing group of us are increasingly convinced that something has been changed with the units.
Id push 4QD on this one, or perhaps if Paul from Technobots is coming to Portsmouth you could return your dead one to 4QD and see if Paul can bring you a new one to Portsmouth ?

The new 4qd-layout is different from the old one , okay , thanx , will mail Paul .
just got mail from 4qd , you´re right Ed , they have made some changes :
answer 4qd :
Yes, I think you may have located an effect of a recent change... Sorry
about that. We need to change the manual.
With the Interface you need to change (or remove) link J2, or the
reversing threshold is too high.
Got to see tomorrow if that´s the answer to my problems , now going to bed , gonna be a long , long weekend .... CU all saturday .
Somebody needs some New Haring this weekend , or you English people don´t like good food ?
Marco, just bring over some salt liquorice, and Ill let you have some Flying Saucers. :)

Is Twyford Avenue the right adress? Cos i cant find any street thats called alexandra park.
Yes it is..
Look for Twyford Avenue... Alexandra Park is a park, not a street.
The centre is very well sign posted off the motorway.
I have found it easily twice on site visits once with and once without a map.
