JYCM3 236 Posted January 14, 2021 Not really a clone, just hop up conversion kit for TT-01. you still need original TT01 parts to complete. Pretty popular in Asia, here’s one from Yeah Racing from RC Mart https://www.rcmart.com/yeah-racing-aluminum-conversion-kit-for-tamiya-tt02-blue-ck-tt02bu-00037172 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nowinaminute 2815 Posted January 14, 2021 It comes with everything except the electronics according to the advert. It has the gears etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nowinaminute 2815 Posted January 14, 2021 This is what one of the reviewers received. No idea what the quality is like. Could be anywhere from terrible to decent but most of the reviews seem favourable. Not my cup of tea either way but it seemed like it might be a good deal for someone who's into bling. Costs less than buying the parts individually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadMeat666 1675 Posted January 15, 2021 Can someone explain aluminum suspension arms to me? They seem to be a very popular item as I see them on sale everywhere, but I don't see how putting heavier, more brittle suspension components on an RC car can be a benefit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They seem to be a very popular item as I see them on sale everywhere, but I don't see how putting heavier, more brittle suspension components on an RC car can be a benefit. I did that on my first RC. A TT01, with rally block tires and rally suspension mod. I added aluminium lower and uper arms to the rear, made it more stable also slop was removed. My buddy had a TB04 with aluminium arms as ugly as it is we did speed runs, the extra weight near the axles has helped. so... I do not own any alu arms, but if I get a tt01 again I would do it again, can the tr02 fit reversible arms? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TurnipJF 9192 Posted January 15, 2021 I have seen these for sale for a while now. At first I also thought they were conversion kits, and TBH I would still treat them as such. The carbon and alloy appear okay, but I would still use as many genuine Tamiya plastic parts as possible as they are generally of better quality than clone plastics in my experience.

DayRider 311 Posted January 15, 2021 The top arms don't look like they are adjusting, so a pointless purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
