  1. TamiyaEra, that’s a very nice build and after seeing your numerous posts, I know you have a deep knowledge of all things Avante/Egress related. 
     

    I bought an Egress in the summer and after doing lots of research and seeing @SteveB post about a TRF Edition Top Force, I thought about a TRF style Egress. Coincidentally this was also the same time Tamiya Legends also did his version. 
     

    Prior to the build, I sourced a multitude of TRF parts - titanium turnbuckles, fluorine bearings, ceramic balls for the diffs, blue alloy hexes, assorted blue hardware and Yeah Racing alloy front and rear hubs. The TRF paintwork was done by Attack RC in Spain and I think he did an amazing job. Having only recently built a Hornet and Hotshot and having a Fox back when I was a kid, it was a very engaging build.

  2. Hi,

    I’m wondering if someone can explain what are the main differences between the TRF201XM and TRF211XM please. I know the TRF201XM has the aluminium chassis  while the TRF211XM has the FRP chassis. 
    Am I also right in assuming that the aluminium racing steering set 42258, the aluminium rear uprights (54245 and 54246) and various other hop ups for TRF201 can also be used on the 211XM?

    Many thanks

    Justin

  4.  I have the following parts coming for the Egress re release:

    Yeah Racing front alloy knuckles

    Yeah Racing rear alloy hubs

    Yeah Racing Carbon CVD’s front and rear

    Super Stock TZ (what pinion should I be running? Steel 19t?)

    2.2 wheels and tyres (do I need a Tamiya pin type hex adaptor)

    Can anybody recommend any other hop ups? I understand the Egress drives better with a centre ball diff instead of the torque splitter. Where can I get one of these and what is the part number please? 
     

    Many thanks

  5. Hi,

    This is my first post. Like many others on here, I’ve revisited my childhood in acquiring a Hornet and Hotshot during the lockdown. I have an Egress on the way and was just wondering if any members would have any of these hop ups they’d be willing to sell:

    53031 - Avante posi joints front

    53032 - Avante posi joints rear

    53053 - mini Hi Cap damper springs

    53054 - short Hi Cap damper springs

    50346 - Avante body set

    53045 - Avante undercowl

    Would any of the TRF dampers fit the Egress and would they be an improvement? I also have some Gmade aeration shocks and was wondering if they would be worth putting on instead of the Hi Caps. All suggestions are welcome

    many thanks

    Justin
