TA05 MS report Card
I ran mine Saturday about 30*C
Used Tires 36RP (Bad move)
I was being cheap and did not want to buy tires
I should have ran 30*RP (My cars are faster with a new set)
Power Plant Novak Brushless 13.5
Gearing 4.5-5.0 The car was alot faster on Take off @5.0 FDR
(Did not need the Top end speed of 4.5, But it cool to see the car running everyone down on the straight yet losing it where it is needed the "field.")
Spool Front on the Rear Diff
Soft suspension set
Is the TA05MS(2.25)Long Arms faster than my TRF415MRE(1.944)Short arms
well......
Yes
and
No
Guys or Gals it really depends on who is holding the controller.
I've ran faster lap time with my TA05r vs my MRE. But that does not make the kit better nor faster.
The right Gearing/Good traction(hint hint) and some mean Voltage.
TA05MS is a very smooth like the 415MRE
It has very quick steering
The is very planted even with old slow tires.
No tweak concern like the 415....once you bolt it down...done deal
TA05 MS is alittle more forgiven to setup error.....
The Biggest down side to this kit......is that lay shaft taken up half the electronic side board.
almost make you not even want to drive it....
This is the biggest buy advantage the 415MRE/MSXX has over this Kit
If I only had enough to buy one kit...I would go I would go with the
TRF415MRE/MSXX
TA05MS is a good Kit yet Tamiya could take some notes from Schumacher Mi3 and come a out with a layshaft hop up to free up that space. Then it could be the Boss Flagship
