Yep, i also made that 6 cell front/rear brace conversion without little side braces.
I cut a little in the top of them and put those scruws who came with carbon batterybrace in them and it`s done. It`s wright high then.
I didn`t like that plastic brace so i bought a carbon battery brace, but when i will start to use my MS i use tape, because 5 cell... you know

Yeah, i was wondering about the fact I haven't even opened the bag with the battery holder pieces (the antenna holder was an spare one from the MSXX, thus I was wondering if it holds something or not... I tried to use a carbon battery brace in the past (in my TA05 and in my old Schumacher) but on a crash batteries are always the first thap pop-off... which does not happen with the tape....

I`ll post some pics those my fixings later tonight.
Usually i use Xenon blue tape, because it`s good looking and enough tight to hold batts down
Only bad thing is that at you have to change it regularly, because it get dirt or something and getting loose. Mainly i change new tape before finals...
Point is... if you made main crash, it`s same do you use tape or batterybrace they pop-off anyway, trust me i know that

), and then I use 2 techniques:1) drip technique on the side of the chassis (one drop of CA, and use the gravity to move it around)
2) Q-tip technique: with some drops of CA on a q-tip, pass it around the difficult places (upperdeck, previously filled battery slots), etc.

yes, i put CA all around (with a black permanent marker previously to make it look better ), and then I use 2 techniques:
1) drip technique on the side of the chassis (one drop of CA, and use the gravity to move it around)

Hey there
Xanavi.
Don`t worry, i never messed CA in my chassis at all. I just round edges and that`s it...
rampal
Thanks
You get it what i mean that 6 cell braces modification to MS?
Yes, we still use 6 cell in our 17t class, but only 2 races left and after that we start to test and use 5 cell system.
That Novak SS5800 brushless give same power like 17t brushed motor in our terms.
In this season i use brushed Brood 17t motor and Hara Twister 2.2 esc, but in that picture i just buy that LRP TC spec and Novak 5800 in coming carpet season.

Couple of testings with my racefellows and we decided to use Kimbrough saver is the best thing with S9550 Futaba. That saver springs are strong and no flex in streering at all
Visit Stockholm? You may better ask Holmenkollen or Eirik in this forum if they can help you out?

cruisaaja (not easy, eh?? ) thanks for the pictures, yeah, I got it. Bu I think I will keep with the 'super blue Xenon battery tape' that matchs tamiya blue
Xanavi, dude, check this out: carbon chassis preparation by team crc, the drop technique is there..... I use this one for big pieces borders (chassis, damper stays mainly) and then where the thing gets difficult and I'm too concern to screw it up, I use the qTip with little CA on it, to avoid the mess... I normally use the qtip on the battery holes and sometimes on the diff and spur holes as well...
CA reduces the probability of the carbon pieces gettting splitted if you crash badly... not avoid...

Xanavi, no problem
rampal, i use that Xenon blue tape also.
And that CA use in generally, i void it as much as possible, because that smell of it. Good thing was at we use preclued tires indoor- and outdoor season

What parts fit?
Hello all you happy TA05MS owners. Could you help me out and answer some questions for me:
1. Is the TA05 spool a direct fit on the MS?
2. Which center one-way would I buy if I wanted to add one? My guess is 53952. Could someone confirm?
3. If I wanted aluminum servo statys, which ones would I order? MSXX ones?
Thanks all!
