Hi there, i have one of last years Mtroniks on my TT01, an EC020 and it works fine, never had a problem with it. I'd say go for am mtroniks as they are good value for money. plus they're now waterproof [

alrite thanks. Ill get some of them then. i think someone at my coub wanted to sell some to get rid of them as he has a new car now and dont need the short ones. See what his price is...
[
]thanks, Chris.

oops, yeah i see what you're saying - if the damper was to get too short. Will these springs allow me to get my ride height down to say 5mm?

Hi im not looking to extend the rideheight though, my car's siting too high about 10mm, needs to be 5mm. i have added a couple of o rings inside the damper but hasn't made much differnce, only a mm or so.

Anyone have the length of these springs? want to know if theyl fit on my super low friction alu shocks to help lower my ride height. Says for use on the CVA dampers but doesn't mention the trf dampers. Obviously, i will want the springs to fit with the dampers when still set to their shortest length.
Can anyone help? [?]

I need to lower my ride height on my TT01 to make it more suited to racing as the car flips sometimes on tight corners, indoors on carpet (fine out on the tarmac). Will these 'short springs' from tamiya lower my ride height?

Cheers, Chris

i have no idea [8)] sorry.
Ill see if i can find out

oh yeah that blue aluminium racing steering set you have on your tt01, does it make a lot of difference to the handling? was wondering if it was worth getting as its getting on £40. Cheers

]Do you race your TT01? I run mine at my local track both indoor and outdoor and its doing pretty well [8D] good little runner once you get it up and going with the right stuff.

Hi wireless,
I had the same problem with mine, once i upgraded my motor to a faster one, the shaft started to 'slap' against the chassis. I bought the aluminium one and its fine now... plus it looks a lot nicer! [8D]

The screws on one of my plastic parts wont stay in because they've worn down the plastic which holds them and they fall out when running the car. is there anything i can do stop this? I have some hard plastic adhesive, could i put some of this into the screw holes and wait for it to dry and then screw the screws into this? [?]

Hi i have the same problem with my TT01. And think its due to the plastic parts, might think about upgrading to the racing steering set. Bout £40 though [8)][8)]

Hi I've checked the servo and its fine, there's no problems with it, and also none of the steering parts are bent/damaged. i think its just because where the steering arms join to one another, there is a lot of free movement and so the wheels have a tendancy to go slighlty one way or the other!

How much a difference would this aluminium steering set make to my handling? I have problems with my wheels coming out of alignment after a slight crash [8)] and so i have to alter the trim on my transmitter all the way to one side, but sometimes even this doesn't get it back going in a straight line.
Saw this pic on someone else's TT01 who has the racing steering set-

Ok thanks. I will charge them both at 3A for now, as its the maximum when using AC. (max of 5.5A when on DC)
Cheers! [
