Tamiya TT02 Thread

Is it possible to use a larger pinion perhaps a 34 48dp with the motor mount? In our club competition FDR is set at 5.0. I want a FDR at approx 5.5/5.6.
#797
Looking at the space left between chassis and 32t pinion I'd say it fits, but I wouldn't say that I'm sure with a gun pointing at my head

Larger problem would be the mounting position to get the needed space.
Maybe a 30t pinion module 0.6 in mounting position 'J' in combination with a 64t spur is the better way to try - that would end up in a 5.55 FDR. Only thing is I'm not sure if there's a 30t m0.6 pinion is available in steel...

I'm sorry, but since I don't own a 34t pinion I'm not able to check.

Let you know of it will fit and what the mounting position is.

have any of you guys been running diff oils in the TT02 diffs? I know I read some place that anything less than (i think) 300k will just leak out - if anyone is running less than that, how are you sealing the diffs?
I plan on running the TT02 spec class for TCS, so anything has to fit within TCS rules and tech... I'm not overly worried about the thicker stuff, as I'd probably run 300k or 500k in the front diff, so I get a spool-like action, but still fit within the TCS rules that the diff has to work
any ideas?

You can adjust the amount of gum used. Make the gum into 3mm balls and add into the diff one by one until you think it is tight enough. I will put some kyosho diff grease together to make the diff smoother. The pros of using gum instead of silicon oil in a unsealed gear diff is that the diff will not loose easily.

i ordered me a tt-02 kit today Tamiya alfa romeo 155 v6 TI MARTINI... gonna run this in a Tamiya class near my home in a caret season.. also purchased this servo will this servo work the futaba model s3010 hi torque ball bearing. I also read through the board something about setting it up as a rally car for a durable structure.. some more info on that as well.. also anyone familiar with this kits im looking for a weight of finished product, I will be upgrading to bearing set as well using the metal motor mount.. I believe they say the car must 1450grams.. but I am a noob to this.. so im curious does this come with the adjustable turnbuckles... an friction shocks do these require oil??? sorry for the run on ?'s but as stated im new to this sorta racing.. an any other help will be greatly appreciated

Can the both version of escs that come with the TT02's run on a 2s lipo? In the product description it states they are 6.6v-7.2v. We would prefer to keep them as stock as possible to grow the class and not let it get out of hand so that anyone can get a kit put a radio in it and race.

Hi guys
I am planing to buy a TT02 Type-S mainly for drift and drag racing so i need speed as well.
I need some suggestion for what KV and turn i should use to get max out of tt02. I already have 60AMP Hobbywing ESC and planing to use 3S Lipo. defiantly i will do some Alum upgrade.pls advice which is essential and also are Ring Gear & Bevel Gears made of? is it steel or plastic? if plastic then shuld i change it?

The tble02 that comes with the TT02 is perfectly fine with 2 cell lipo. That is all I have ever used in my TT02.
You might need a low voltage battery alarm if you are just bashing etc as it only has voltage cut-off for life batteries. I never bother as my 6600 lipos run for 3 races and then I swap them out for another set.
