hi all i'm having a bit of a problem with my m03 i'm hoping someone can help?
Two weeks ago my m03 was planted i could nearly go flat out round the corners and it would go flat out down the straight and would go straight as a dart i was well happy with it, now its still great round the corners but as soon as a i put the power down the car goes to the left. i've looked all over the car and find nothing wrong. i'm running 17.5Bl with a Ta03 ball diff,any help would be great Cheers Ginge This is the main purpose of those 'o' rings, to keep the outdrives properly seated. It's also possible that if there is looseness there that the splines have now started to strip. |
Hi, just sharing. 1st Tamiya RC Open held inside SM Megamall. Exposing minis to lots of people. Hopefully more indoor mall races to come.

Malls may be a great venue for a race. With the economy slumping malls are looking for events that will bring in a crowd. Great job!

Hi f1larry, MD, yes hopefully some new drivers from the crowd. Tamiya is doing a good job.

[QUOTE=tony gray;7131293]The probability is that one of your outdrives has popped out of the diff on one side. Do you have the 'o' rings in the outdrives? Or is one of them badly worn?

M05 Traction
Been running my M05 this morning fine top speed but slow off the line and through the infield and as we are running standard motors it difficult to catch back up again. running S grips all round will full additive and ca on the front walls. Guess my problem is purely one of lack of traction from rest / low speed. Using tamiya alloy shocks and white kit springs. Any suggestions?

Not a very polite answer to follow that link, but thanks anyway. But it's not a very updated or complete list is it? I mean I think I have heard of some other manufacturers like Carson and Kamtec that also make bodies that wil work on a M or L size M-chassis. Anyone know of any? Thanks, Peter |

are you running the standard kit diff (gear diff) a ball diff or a Spool Diff? If your running a ball diff how tight is it? |
I recently built my M05 - need some troubleshooting help.
On throttle the car drives straight, off throttle the car moves left. I am running a new Tamiya ball diff and CVD's no "o" rings or foams in the cups. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Suspension and steering are free (has new Tamiya aluminum steering ). This one has me baffled. |
