  1. internal gear ratio = Crown wheel teeth over bevel gear teeth or if you dont want to take apart your car just use 2.6 we think thats pretty close.
  2. Thanks guys. Im not taking it too seriosly at the moment and i dont want to spend too much. So i think i will go for the NiCads. I already have NiCads so i will also get a discharger too. Has anyone got any discharger recommendations? Thanks again
  3. What would be better for me:[?] 2400 mAh NiCad "Rocket pack" from Orion price £18 OR[?] 3000 mAh NiMH "Max Pack" from Modelsport price £18 I race a TT-01 every friday at an indoor circuit in Dorset. I need at least 5 min runtime for the race but would like more so i can have fun on the road during the week and at weekends. I will soon be using a 27 turn stock motor and will soon be using an ESC. (its all on the Christmas List![]) Thanks Lots, appreciate any reply! []
  4. OK my batteries really need dischargin but i dont know how and i dont want to pay a fiver for a resistor! [!] Can anyone please help and tell me what resistor i should use? They are Ni-Cads 2000mAh. Also it would be useful to know what temperature my batteries should get too maximum? Thanks

  11. HELP! [V] I Have tried everything and its still not working!!!!! [8)] Its DEFINITLY the motor as when you roll the car along at top speed and release the accelarator the noise goes away.

  14. Yea the TB-01 is the advanced version of what i have i suppose. The TT-01 is Tamiyas main entry level car (along with the Tl-01) I dont know if i can make a new front end with TB-01 parts...has anyone tryed it? Thanks again
  15. AAAAAA HELP[] Still dont know what problem is, but im fairly sure its motor related. What can i do to clean and maintain my motor??[8)] Thanks
  16. Forgot to say... Thanks
  17. So its possible to rebuild my car to be full adjustable parts at the front. Camber sounds appealing. Is it possible to do all the others like caster, king pin inclination etc. And can i fit a superior cars front end onto mine...like a TB-01? Or is this not possible.
  18. had another look... and i think there is some grit in the rear gear bits Im gonna clean out the rear end and see Thanks
  19. Oh. So i need a threaded rod (cut off bolt) and a couple of things on the end to make this myself. On the car it is a piece of plastic with 1 hole in either end. Do i do this on the end of the threaded bolt to make baisically the same piece but with an option to extend/retract Yes?[] Thanks
  20. Yes it has been a wet week It will probably have been a bit wet What will need oiling? THe bit at the back of the motor, what the little turnythinggy?
  21. R u sure you can adjust this kind of thing for a TT-01. Its a very baisic car with only a little to adjust. Thanks
  22. I am not using an ESC (crappy MSC) but its definitly not that (the car moves ok) The noise is coming from the motor/ rear end Any help?
  23. It makes a high pithced screeching when going forward its a TT-01 Its not too bad when going backward...does this rule anything out? Please help Thanks
  24. Many thanks But what do you mean by an ajustable steering arm? It changes length? Can you get this for the TT-01? I know that upgrades arent very comprehensive for my car [V] Thanks again!
  25. I have heard some people chatting about stuff and it seems to me that having a hot motor makes a difference somehow??? Does it???[?]
