Hi,
I just bought a TT01E RTR. Any recommandations to make it a drift car or a racing car? Which is more fun?
I am a noob when it comes to all the specs of the cars. What should i look out for in a rc cars? I read some of the posts and it doesn't seem helpful to me in understanding more for the car. It seems that TA05 is a better car than TT01.
Can anyone help me in understanding more about the specs inside? Like the gears, motors and cambers, toe-in something like that?
Thanks!

Download this and it will explain everything clearly - XRAY T3 Setup Book
Although the setup guide is not for TT01 in specific but it will give you a general idea about setting up a R/C Car.
The TT01 can be made into drift simply by changing the Tires to 'Drift-Type'. For further drift performence, you can adjust the suspension characteristics via changing shock springs or upgrading to shocks which can adjust it's dumpening effect. Locking of front or rear differentials will also significantly change the drifting characteristics. There is no real specific setup for the TT01 to be operated on all tracks however I will explain further if you would like to know a my Drift Setup for TT01 which performs generally well on all surface and conditions.
For Touring(Race) setup, you do not have to bother much as the TT01E is built for stock racing and further investment to upgrade it pose no significant benefits, the money spent would be a better investment if you were to get a better car instead such as the TA05 or other well known brands and models for Touring use.

Thanks for the guide, it may take quite awhile for me to finish understanding every part of the car. Haha!
But the guide does not have the esc, rx and tx and the servo. I am using the stock rx and tx and this seems to always have interference by other people who uses the same controller as me. Should i change the controller or must i change the receiver and the controller together?

Hi all RC veterans,
I had an old HPI MT2. Looking to see whether it is worth servicing as I had not play the car for some time, flywheel is stucked plus other problems. I dont have the tools to open up the engine to clean it, sigh.
Any reasonable servicing with great service out there? I had ask some shops but thought it would be good to get an independent veteran here to take a look at my car instead.
Any good advice? I would like to get this old babe of mine to start firing again. Thanks.
