I have a front spool on this car. Looking for aluminium drive cups for it rather than the steel ones it comes with. Anyone know if they exist?

No but you can use the TA06 light weight ones with blades. Or you can use a Ta05 aluminium ball diff and use delrin inserts instead of balls.

#53919 in combination with #51212 (#53988) and #54424.

Or

# 54544

Thanks. That's exactly the information I am looking for.

Do you think there is much weight to save with the TA 06 lightweight ones over the standard ones? The standard ones I have, have 4 slots anyway, but are not wide to fit blades.

About 2 grams per drivecup. They have cutouts too.

that sounds interesting, i have a few TA 05.
I would like to change one to rally.
Did you have to change many parts, and if so, what did you use?

Completely sold out world wide long time ago.
The IFS ones are for IFS damper setup. And they are only for front.

Hello all..

after the great succes of the "new" Awesomatix A800x EVO MMMMMMMM (TA05 lay-out) during the ETS in Spain...

is it maybe an idea to look again to the possibilities for a 2019 upgrade for the TA05 MMMMMMMMMSSSSSSSSSS....


Just my thoughts...

Greetzzz

I thought I would clean this chassis up and race it since everyone is on the mid motor/pulley craz...

I did spend a bit of money as well. I spent more money on my TRF414 though. That chassis has a lot of TRF419X and TB04 parts.

This one pictured is mostly stock (bought from a fellow racer on this site). I now have two "R" kits and one VDF converted to FWD. I do love driving the TA05R though. The last race with my first TA05R was at TCS against a full A-main of TRF419s. I was the only tub chassis in the 5th spot. This chassis now pictured has all new electronics.

Thanks everyone for the "Likes"~!
