Juhunio 6830 Posted November 29, 2022 Some more tasty bits from Japan The elusive second blue TA03 pulley means my 'Bluebird' TA03F-TRF project is now good to go, after over a year of collecting all the parts 😃 The TRF415 pulley also means I now have everything I need now to build my TRF415MSX restoration...apart from the servo mounts, which are made from purest unobtainium 🙄 Springs will come in handy down the road sometime And some nice F103 bits. The CF lower deck is white labelled but reassuringly has the two star logo on the header card 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was my first thought too when I stumbled across it, immediately followed by my second thought “where’s my wallet” , I’ll be posting pics/vids when I get around to building it, hopefully it’s as cool/fun as it seems 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Willy iine 18806 Posted November 30, 2022 CF bits and black wheel set for my Kyosho Beetle. I am expecting alloys, but it will take time to get here so will run the black wheels in the mean time. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moffman 5752 Posted December 1, 2022 Right place at the right time literally gone into my local hobby shop for thin masking tape for corners and just to catch up with the owner really! and they had just received their orders from tamiya 5 minute before so they are now in the uk I know technically not delivered to my door by any delivery company but delivered to the shop (just putting that out there before certain people go off on one) 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sogogi 3217 Posted December 2, 2022 Another package from japan has arrived. Le mans motors and some misc stuff! Haven’t decided where to put Le mans motors… yet I want to run my cars, but weather is not cooperating haha. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven’t decided where to put Le mans motors… yet I want to run my cars, but weather is not cooperating haha. Awesome! Congrats. I tried that Tamiya 15.5BL on my Egress.. not bad, I don't know whether the earlier gen XR10 is making a difference, but the LeMans240S is smoother with the current gen XR10. The reason why I ran the old (NIB) XR10 is because I added a driver and it required me to orient the ESC a certain way (could only achieve this by running the older gen XR10 with a different cable take off for switch and receiver cables).

Alexei 547 Posted December 2, 2022 a package from Tamico showed up contained a Tamiya Skyline R33 GT-R sticker set, 2 Yeah Racing pinions, Tamiya aluminium servo mounts, 3Racing aluminium ball connectors, some Tamiya turn buckles and Losi Set screws. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds glorious! (Ordered 2 sets of current gen xr10, thanks to you ). There is something about le mans motor. I feel like i want more of them (wanted to get 480t too, but i gotta resist haha. I need try out what i bought first ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was in awe when I opened the 240S. I have a 480 Gold for my Fantom.. it's going to be a beautiful build, I think. On the other hand, the Tamiya BL packaging was pretty basic.. like what the heck happpened? BTW, if you haven't already, you'll want to get sensor cables and the HW programmer.. you need the sensor cable hooked up to get the smoothness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tamiya packaging looks super basic compared to le mans. luckily i have ordered sensor cables and the programmer (the one you used).
