  1. im hoping someone may be able to help after last weekend my esc came out of its plastic case and scraped on the ground. and stopped working so here goes, i asked our technical team at work if they could look at it and the say it looks like the esc has lost a capicitor or a resistor on the bottom corner can anyone either have a look at theres and give the rating or a photo if possible or does anyone have access to a circuit diagram of this esc. LRP AI PRO REVERSE DIGITAL. i have posted some photo's showing where the damage is.

  2. i have been using nero vision, comes with nero 7 premium. this allows me to convert to what ever format then can use on movie maker. i have saved in mp4 format acouple of times, get great quality movies with low file size, does anyone else use this format.

  3. i have a touareg packed away for christmas, the misses insisted ! was woundering if the wheels where just touring car wheels and would some other better looking wheels fit the tyres. also if im locking both diffs up, is there any point having a torque splitter and if so how does this work. what motor can someone recommend as im buying all the bits i need ready for the christmas build. already got the ballraces, new acoms 40mhz radio and an upgraded esc.

  4. Hi there like yourself im new to drifting, im running a TL-01 with a 14 turn motor which is too fast for the job will be popping a sport tuned in there, i was told locking the rear diff helps which i have done but now waiting for the weekend to tryout, hope this helps.

  5. im running my tl-01 subaru fully ballraced using a mtroniks vision series 14x2 motor with a lrp AI pro reverse digital 10 turn limit esc with a 19t pinion, although i have been drifting (or trying to) was woundering what would be better the setup i have maybe with a bigger pinion for more speed as the motor does'nt get to hot or use a sport tuned motor with a bigger pinion also what differance do the speed tuned gears actually make if any. Also can anyone tell me how i can tell if a 190mm shell will fit my car (wheel arches match up) been looking at some carson ones but not sure if they come with window masks and weather they would fit my tl01. also what tamiya shells fit this chassis.

  6. Hi all was out with my tl01 58273 subaru, running a 14x2 motor with 19t pinion and electrical tape on the tyres so could try drifting was great fun but was woundering, if i locked diffs up would it make it easier and do i need to lock both diffs or just front and do u fit drift tyres on front and rear. just some general advice on drifting would be helpful. i understand that the tl01 might no be the best chassis for drifting but thought i would give it a go.  also found car to really quick in a straight line and motor does'nt seem to get to hot and was woundering if you would advise on fitting a bigger pinion for extra speed, what setup's do use with the old tl01.

  7. what i used to like about tamiya was the look of the cars, sand scorcher, f150 and holiday buggy which i used to own when i around 15, long time ago i know, but most of the modern cars look alike mainly because alot use the same chassis type, what ever happened to individuality. I think the hi-lift is a welcome step in the right direction to making tamiya what it once was to me. A modern sand scorcher would be great a the originals are really expensive to buy and to keep running.

  8. i have recently bought a subaru impreza on ebay where else, i have a manta ray diff set that i had on a ff02 chassis, not being to experianced in these things would it be worth fitting to my car and what differance would it make, im running a 14x2 motor, ballraces and tuned gears.
