Tamiya TT02 Thread
#3736
I have been running the ProTek RC 140T servo in my GT ProSpec for the last two years with a Tamiya blue aluminum servo horn (no servo saver). That servo has taken its share of hits both outdoors on asphalt and indoors on black carpet and its as good as new. Highly recommend it (plus its not quite Tamiya blue but close enough...LOL
)

Thanks a ton guys, appreciate it.
Last racing was maybe 1990 or 1991.....original RC10 platform, a Bolink pan car and my grail was a Schumacher cat that got run over by a car and then I got my drivers license and 35 years later, back at it.....never really lost the bug, just have a ton of other hobbies etc like everyone else.
I want to get the TC4 up and running as well, I always liked Associated but I know it is now an older platform and I scoured the web for some additional parts for breakables etc. Unfortunately there aren't many classes locally where I could run it.

Finally got my GT12R dialed in and got to mess with my TT-02 tonight. I'm trying to figure out what kind of gearing works for a just for fun VTA build. This is an Arrowmax 59 pinion and a RW 68 spur (3.00 FDR). I can go slightly smaller on the pinion with the 68 too. I tried 54 and it was touching but pretty loose. The only thing stopping the motor from meshing better was this corner touching the motor where the bearing is on the chassis. A little grinding and I could fit the 54 to get a 3.27 FDR without having to change the spur. Also you can see there is quite a bit more room for a bigger pinion and/or spur to get a much lower FDR!


I am going to be running my tt02 srx in the vta class what spur and pinion size to start is going to get me close for vta

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I kinda lean in that direction. I am looking to pick up my first LiPo for my TT02r and I was wondering what size mah battery should I buy in order to balance the car down the center? I am running a 540 silver can with a HW1060 speedo and a ProTea 140 servo if any of that matters. Thanks guys!

love your ride!
rctech newbie, back in the hobby after 30 years and tinkering with my TT02 911 RSR with some good progress (and acceptance of that the XRAY X4s at my local club will still lap me).
QQ : Is there any reason for why the PSM Upper Mounts + a set of turn buckles wouldn't work for camber adjustment for the TT02. Seems like a much more elegant and lighter solution than Tamiya's own Adjustable Arm Set (54874).
Thanks in advance!
