- 54252 Tamiya brushless 16T
- 500906121 Carson shooter sport BL 16T
- 500906165 Carson waterproof set BL 16T
Any specific (Tamiya) ESC you can recommend or I should stay away from? I still run a TB101 on the TT-01, unbreakable... The new 105 went up in smoke!
I think I can use this chassis right out of the box with minor hop-ups. I saw the carbon reinforced gear set and read about the 39t gear. I am not allowed lower than 5.0 overall reduction between motor and wheels, so pinion choice is easy. Shimming the lot should not be too hard, adding a Honda HSV body is the finishing touch.
Anything I forgot? Tips welcome!
Cheers,
Hugo
Congratulations on your new kit, did you get the pro v2?
I was going to recommend this but according to the manual it only works with sensored motors

The Honda HSV-010 body is awesome, I have already painted one for my tb04 pro V2
