Revival

Thanks for the reply guys.......the only problem is that it only does this on concrete surface.....I get this feeling that its that the one-way is not too good on low traction surface......

Hi everyone I have been to 2 local tracks with my TB-02 using the front one way diff. On high traction tracks, it works very well....however at concrete carpark tracks that is done up by afew good friends, the rear end of the car is slipping and sliding during turns especially during speed reduction or brake tapping. Some of my friends are commenting that the one way is not suitable for low traction track....while some are disputing that its my ESC....what do you guys think? Car setup Front camber: -1.5 Front toe: +2 Rear camber: -2 Rear toe: -2.5 Ride Height: 5mm Suspension: TRF Dampers with 500 oil weight, Yellow stabliser Drive Shaft: Universal Tires: 24mm Middle narrow reinforced B rating with soft inserts Wheel offset: +2 Front and rear Motor setup ESC: LRP Runner, L Throttle set at 20% limit for brakes Motor: Tamiya Type R 23T Power: GP 3300 Nimh Pinion: 23 Spur: 55

Errrhhh does it really matter or not if the TB-02 is a water down version of the EVO-3? At the end what really matters is to have a good ESC, suitable motor, gear ratio according to track, correct chassis setup and of course good driving skill. I been to the local track and have seen superior chassis being smacked silly by lesser chassis due to the experience of the driver........[]

Perhaps you may consider the new indoor EP Heli from Kyosho......its a RTR with most of Kyosho's technology taken from the bigger Concept 30....Perhaps you may want to check out their website.

If you are looking for speed, then the TXT is not setup for that purpose but as a terrain climber. If the Twin Detonator, is your consideration, consider getting Novak's Super Rooster which is good for up to 2 15T motor.....If you are considering the E-Maxx or Twin force, a different setup would be to use 2 low turn ESCs and use a Y-Connector to the receiver.

If you are looking for a good base buggie, I think that would be either the Baja King or Baja Champ and not the Blazing Star. Its based on the TL-01B chassis and most of the hop-ups for the TL-01 can be used. However do look around at other brands like Losi, and I think Trinity has a EP buggie as well....

Hello GTR I dont think Tamiya's standard has fallen but I think the competition for EP market has grown stronger.....what I know is that Tamiya needs to be extra 'On-the-ball' when it comes to their future kit releases.

I am not too sure here but I think the TB-01 or TB-02 may not be such a good idea for a rally car due to the ball diff....Its great for track but I dont think they will survive long on an off road terrain.....I am more in favor of a chassis using gear diff like the TL-01

Ooooohhh okay....if you can, get: 1. aluminum dampers 2. upper carbon plate 3. aluminum uprights (front and back) 4. universal front shaft 5. high torque servo for steering 6. fail safe 7. titan turn buckles Ensure that you run in your engine for at least 10 tanks of your car and follow run in procedure by the book.

Hi Andy With reference to........????

Hi Willy I think the motor will be a good think to look out for.....the sad part about Tamiya is the lack of a good buggie after the Dyna Storm.....Looks like its either a Kyosho or Ofna I will be looking at soon........[:I]

Hello Paul If you are intending to step into the nitro scene, perfer Tamiya and off roader essential, start off with the TNX.....its an off roader monster truck, 1/8 scale with a .18 OS engine that can hit 40+mph without modification....the only think is that its an RTR but the built is quite okay. A standard radio will work with any nitro car as the basic functions are throttle, brakes, and steering. However, it will be good to invest in one better servo for the steering as the demands of off-road can be quite taxing. What usually powers the servos is 4 AA batteries which is best stay with rechargables......they usually last quite afew runs before charging......best not to use disposable as the current may not be constant.......What is a good thing to buy in addition to what you have is a 'Fail Safe'....the function of this device is to return your throttle and steering back to original position...should your receiver batteries fail or some signal interference. a full 125cc can last about 10 to 15 minutes depending on the type of engine and modifications you have done. a 5 pot .21 Novarossi can hit off 60+ mph.....

No Terry....I think the whole quantum series is waterproof and there is the Quantum Pro Reverse.....

Soooooo I take it that the Modena is worth the buy ........[]

Gosh......thanks for the input......I am confused.....whahahhahahaa....but I will digest what has been adviced..... So the 11T's out.......thank goodness I did not exchange my type T for the 11T
