TMaxxDave Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 I did have all the gear ratios written down, but I appear to have lost them. I'm using 19/61 atm but thinking I'm going to change to 18/58 Sent from my iPad Air using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ostewart Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Thanks for the info! Yeah I do know a little bit about brushless due to my Blitz, but that's a very different machine. Will have a look around. I'll be using 2s lipos aswell, will probably get metal diffs for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 I changed mine to plastic to save weight. I'll be getting lipos at some point, probably 2s as I think 3s will be insane. Ball bearing diffs would be awesome but not the cheapest. I've just ordered a set of anti roll bars off the TG10 to help the handling Sent from my iPad Air using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ostewart Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Well I have a motor now, what type of pinion do these use? Mod.05? I got a Trackstar 5200kv brushless motor, only 2pole but for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 For 8quid you cant really go wrong. 80amp ESC will be fine. Im just using the pinions that came with the car orginally. Why did you decide to go for a TB-01? If you dont mind me asking Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxDave Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Small update. The runner TB-01 shall be running a Tamiya 105BK esc with Tamiya Sport Tuned motor. These are on order :-) The prop shaft and diffs shall remain steel. Not too fussed about speed. Wanting relibility and quick acceleration. I need to do some jiggering around with parts from my shelfer and my runner. As i cant remember which parts are fitted to which. Ive gone back to brushed to keep it all Tamiya and im convinced its brushless that killed the gears when i had the alloy prop fitted.

TMaxxDave Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Been playing around with some bits and pieces and ive only just realised that my runner is fitted with some nice slightly longer shockers, So they are being removed for the shelfer along with the alloy prop.

TMaxxDave Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Ive just won another TB-01 off ebay. Its only a roller but i want to harvest parts for my runner and have a few spares. Dependent on what its got on it depends what i steal off it Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Wòo my 3rd TB-01 has arrived Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Made a start on my runner chassis. Will be running Sports tuned motor with a 105 Tamiya ESC, standard servo on NiHm. The diffs have been rebuilt with some heavy duty grease. Shocks are using 40wt oil. Its using TG10 anti roll bars, alloy motor mount and alloy front suspension mount. The chassis is practically brand new. No play in the steering joints or suspension. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 Fleet shot. The Citroen is the TB-01 pictured above. Re-set up the Tamiya ESC in the car and now i actually have braking and proper throttle response. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxDave Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 My very nice GPM alloy prop and alloy mount from France. Now if i had a 3rd main chassis, i could build a 3rd complete car minus electrics Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
