Key difference for me for the M07 is the ease of maintenance, ease of tuning, and material. A well prepped M05 will perform about the same as a well prepped M07. |
Has anyone been playing with swaybars on the 07 on high grip carpet yet? I've installed the red front/blue rear, but won't have a car on the carpaet for at least another month.

You should have said something when i spoke up on the local racing threads lol. Everyone now has lovely m05 paper weights. Ive seen some crazy things, but someone trading a 07 for two or three 05's, id be rather surprised.

Thank you all for the replies has been very helpful. I think i may just keep the M05's.

M-07 S?
Can't tell if this is official, or a really good cut n shut chassis. If it's a one off, it's very good. That servo mount is insane, in any case. One note that makes me think it's real is in the video. Several large Tamiya branded cardboard boxes, a mini 4WD track and it just kinda looks like it. |

I suppose something that makes me think it's real is the Tamiya motor and battery connectors. Who uses those?! I'm still trying to figure out that servo mount. That's a chunky piece of alloy and would seem unnecessary. |

The screws on the bottom attach the ridiculous servo mount at the bottom. I'm thinking the top and bottom had to be cut in different areas and maybe some of the vertical stuff on either side of the servo had to be sacrificed to make this work, or at least to make room to get a Dremel in there. It's hard to figure out, but it appears some of the shortening was done just ahead of the rear suspension and some under the servo, which would explain the missing vertical pieces and the stupid big servo mount.
Dammit. I'm bored and I've got a spare chassis. This is a tempting puzzle. EDIT: I need sleep...and a life. Okay, figured out the chop. Not that hard to do. Not quite as sanitary as this one, but very, very close. Also, in the video, the track boards look exactly like those at Tamiya events. Coincidental? Yes. It was shot at http://genkikkosan.com/ . They're a shop with a smallish room that's primarily for mini 4wd, but they do run m chassis sometimes. |
