Default Any help appreciated for TT01

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any guys running the TT01D in SG? Just bought a set recently and am hoping to find someone who can teach me what parts to get. Especially spurs, pinions, etc. I stay in Kovan.


Thanks...

i am not a tamiya fan, but i have a friend who has a tt-01.

-Get ball bearings, they will really make a difference.

-oil filled shocks are a major improvement over the stock friction "shocks".

-get a decent ESC. the one included is OK with the can motor and 27 turn motors, but will probably smoke with a modified motor.

- and most importantly : Have fun!!!

Cheers!

Hi

RC Mart has a lot of stuff for the TT-01. But all u need is like Bigshades said, some bearings, shocks and a decent esc.

If u plan on actually racing in the future, get a TA-05 or something similar. Don't pump money into a TT-01.

Hope this helps.

i own the Futaba FASST in my tt-01. You can do many things to it from the controller that can dramatically affect the car, and it is 2.4 ghz. EX. you can udjust abs system, adjust digital trim, and adjust throttle and steering. I think they run about 180$. Great radio.

Hi adrictan,

are you a drifter, racer or a basher? I believe TT-01D is design for drifting and ball bearings included in the kit.

for racing car
- change your motor mount to aliminum or metal (kit use plastic it will melt easily)
- change your propeller shaft to aluminum if you want to use motor higher than silver can.
- change your pinion to 25 - 55 (TT-01D use 19 - 61)
- use piston with 2 holes (tt-01d indicates 3 holes)
- use zorex tires 40r with medium insert (40r good for sg temp)
- use wheels with 2mm offset

if you have more money to throw for your kit
- a good servo (speed)
- a good servo saver (tamiya stock servo saver suck )
- steering set
- universal shaft
- carbon upper frame
- stabilizer set

for my opinion TT-01 dont need high end controller dont waste your money on it. Middle end FM controller will do. (again thats for me) But if you are planning to buy a new car dont buy to much bling bling for your TT-01

My suggestion before you buy hop-ups for your kit, visit first our local race track in Quenstown, observe, be freindly ask question to all players and you will learn while having a new freind.

for me TT-05 ( R or IFS) is a better car than TT-01 in terms of everything (durability, speed, etc)

I hope it helps!
