*Newly designed TT-01 type E chassis features brand new A Parts and D Parts.

* Damper Stay and Gear Case parts are made from fiberglass-reinforced resin for greater strength. These parts are now also separately molded to enable easier maintenance(regular TT-01 had damper stay and gear case molded as one piece).

* New front and rear uprights are also made from durable fiberglass-reinforced resin.

* Improved steering linkage design features TA05 steering posts for sharper steering response.

* New upper deck enhances chassis rigidity and mimics Tamiya's high-level race-spec machines.

* Upper deck also features a convenient transponder mount to further encourage fans to go to their local track and experience R/C racing.

I feel it may be a sequel to prolong the "shelf-life" of the TT-01 chassis..

Till we receive some hands-on review on it...

Its a beauty!

I love those shells too!

The parts look interesting. Looks like a stronger basher in the works.

More like the TGS kits now..well done. hope they did something to the motor mount area though. That is the major weak point...any pictures or info on the motor mount?

It looks sealed, might be made for rally. But lack of alum parts. So I really think it is a rally specs chassis.

From the video, it looks like a new mount..but if there is a real change of the motor mount and more gear choices, then...i rike!

Actually, I kinda like it if all the parts were fiber reinforced expecially the chassis. Only alu part I would say are required are: shaft, heat sink, adjustable motor mount and suspension. Other than that, quite good for bashing or rally or even TAC races. Nice..make my hand itchy liao..

TT01 E VS TT01/TT01R

Good

Reinforced front knuckle
Damper Stay and Gear Case is slightly taller and wider compared to the TT01 & TT01R Gear Case
Slight difference in the upper arm mount, to fit the new upper deck
Additional screw holes in the motor case to secure the new motor cover and the new upper deck
New battery strap secures the stick-pack battery better
The newly designed steering rack reduces ALOT of the slop found in TT01/TT01R steering rack
New style of servo mount
New transponder mount
Led light kit included
Radial tyres included


Bad

Heavier because of the reinforced knuckles, gear case and the increased number of screws
