Tamiya CC-01 Owners Club: Photos and Discussions

[Gaz!]

damn right they do, im surprised we haven't attracted the attention of Big Gaz yet. He's a proud cc01 owner

Ben.

 

 

Give him time

 

im here guys, fresh off my hols were i did take my cc01 with me.

 

now the only bits of advice i can give from experience is,

 

rubber sheilded bearings throughout.

alloy steering link kit is a must.

get rid of all the sloppy ball connectors (tightens up the steering no end)

50-60t motor is about perfect for running 2s lipo or 6 cell nimh.

there the basics but spec on mine (if i remember it all) is,

 

tekin heavy duty 45t motor,

axial ae2 esc,

savox servo,

home made rear 4 link kit,

junfac under skid plate,

junfac driveshaft,

alloy wheel hexes,

rubber sheilded bearings,

radshape front sump guard from a toyota fj40 (made to fit),

alloy front arms,

alloy c-hubs,

alloy steering knuckles,

cvd`s

all new top links and steering links using traxxas rod ends,

alloy steering kit,

kit wheels slightly weighted with abisma 90mm tyres,

custom dislocation rear suspension for more travel,

re jigged the chassis to suit my needs.

 

i can get more detailed pics if needed....

Looks great Gaz, love the Pajero body, think I prefer it to the dodge ram body you had before. Sounds like its an awesome car underneath, I wish I had the money to throw some more stuff into mine.

Asia tees mate, very reasonable for hop ups......

Yeah I prefer the jero but it was a case of waiting for a new one to pop up for sale......

[thatRCguy]

Damn it sold my cc01 last month to fund a drift car it was a bog standard modelsport street spec land cruiser wish i still had it but i didnt use it much . Lost all photos aswell cos i got a new computer

[Noj]

Mine has never so much as turned a wheel in anger, and rests resplendent on a shelf, looking pretty and not earning me a small fortune in appreciating value as the years pass by, in fact, I think I'd lose money if I sold it   

 

It is a red Pajero, with some hop ups and gorgeous wheels....that is all.

[PraetoR]

Photos, or you, sir, are a liar and a fraud! I bid thee!

[Noj]

I meet thy challenge: fresh, still in the cabinet, I give you, (badly photographed) Noj's Pajero:

 

 

 

 

It is red, and shiny, with gorgeous rims, some ally bits under the back end, I think some working lights, and an esc/motor combo of some description. A servo as well probably....

 

It may have been rtr, or artr, I cannot remember. Why I am shelfing it? Again, I cannot really say, other than it is a clean example and I just don't do going slowly....I have tried it, I appreciate the beauty and quality of many of the rigs out there, just not for me 

 

If the right offer was made, I'd probably sell it.....as I have more shelfers than space 

[GilbertRC1]

Looks nice Noj, i do love a good shelfer. lovely colour as well.

Ben. 

[Noj]

Thanks Ben, appreciated.

See Prae, you heathen, shelfers are good, and need no justification.

[tonysmini]

Mine has the junfac skid and rear end, locked diffs f&r, alloy steering, weighted wheels and tyres and a 70t motor.

[GilbertRC1]

Nice Disco tonysmini, I was just wondering if the g-made saw back body would fit a cc01? Because if so that would look awesome!

Ben.

[lazkopat]

count me in. I'll get some latest picture of my unimog sometime soon

[oodboo]

To foam or not to foam, that is the question I'm asking myself today. Not to foam will require glue though so one way or the other. What do you reckon?

[Noj]

For the tyres? Foam 'em I say

[oodboo]

To stop the tyres sinking on the shelf?

[Pingman]

To foam or not to foam, that is the question I'm asking myself today. Not to foam will require glue though so one way or the other. What do you reckon?

 

thought foam still needs glue?

[oodboo]

I've been running them without glue for a bit and they weren't slipping.

[Gaz!]

a well positioned block of wood will lift the tyres off the shelf and save them sinking.....

 

foam is a definate in the tyres though and if they dont slip, dont glue them 

[johninderby]

RC4WD axle stands look nice for keeping the tyres off the shelf. Pity they're not cheaper.

Yes I agree with not always gluing tyres. If they don't slip just leave them alone.

John

[oodboo]

I'll stick the foams back in then

[lazkopat]

Gluee'm with HPI tyre glue and use foams inside tyres. Makes a massive difference.

The glue dissolves or weakens after awhile if you're like me driving it in mud and rough terrains so you will need to re-glue em every 2 months or so. Also it will prevent slipping if you submerge the truck in deep mud like I do.

[oodboo]

Seems to manage ok without the tyres glued, I'd rather not glue them if I don't have to.
