m52 power!

Yes they are correct and "fit". Just the length of the couplers is short by maybe 3 mm on each one. I can slide the feathering shaft out like that.

Do you have any pics?

Gotta love the FXX baby =]

ferrari on chrome wheels. blasphemy!! haha. j/k. Its looks just about right, my body posts are shorter than yours. Is your body still hitting the ground?

might want to widen the rear end. looks kinda funky with the wheels so far inside teh body

Ferrari <3

pimpedarse

yeah its still hitting the ground lol, how do i widen the end??

Paulyd

get some offset wheels to fill in the wells, otherwise it looks like cars when they have to put the spare tire on. u know the dinky, really skinny tiny one with the black rims? haha.

pimpedarse

blech thats what i thought i would have to do... do you know what offset it is?

damn ive been throwing money right and left lately lol

there are 2 longer and 2 shorter axle versions. use the longer ones with the wider hexs in the kit and your FXX will look like mine. I got the FXX kit so mine already included the longer axles

Here's my TT-01R with the recently installed Venom Fireball Modified 19t motor! Wahoo! I'm not sure how good of quality the motor is, but it seems good to me!

Hey Mindwreck... are those rims stock with the Fxx kit? or did you buy them seperatly...

lookin good.

pimpedarse

I seriously have to fix the problem with the nose.. just look at the pic, its like 4 mm above the ground if not even lol, I've just been rocken out my Raybrig NSX lately (basher body) cause I realy dont want to mess up the FXX anymore then I have...

Any suggestions?

cornel4web

i got some for my RX-7...on TT-01D, for using with ABS pipe

mindwreck

thanks. yeah they are the stocks. kind of beat up from off the powersliding and drifting. I have 2 sets. one has the stock slicks(never used, just put them on for super shelf queen mode with the body) and this set now has new HPI X-patterns since the last tires exploded

mindwreck

how low is the rear? looks pretty high in the pics. my car has the front body clips that are under the body on the 2nd hole from the bottom. and the rears in the 3rd or 4th holes. about a good 1cm off the ground. good on nicely paved parking lots but i still don't want risk messing up the body.

I actually need to order new body posts since my posts were cut just for this body and it won't work with my 350z and lambo bodies.


edit: if the body clip positions don't work for you. what i usually do it bottom out the car out.. then put the body clips in so when im driving and the suspension bottoms out, the lowest the body will go is ground level.. get what my mean?

welcome to the tt-01 family cornel. glad you accepted my invite to the thread. are you going to run brushless in your tt-01? if you do i highly suggest drifting on drift tires or hard tires. much faster and fun-er, just watch out for obstacles. faster speeds = harder the crash. fall in good fun though

cornel4web

10x...no motor upgrade for now......me is like simple and cheap, course I will run on drift tires, that's how it comes becouse of the DRIFT specs...also planning to get some ABS or sushi

DirtBonez

Hey all remember me? I am finally going to order my tt-01 tonight when I get back from work. I decided to get a tt-01 skyline kit cause it has LED lights and way better looking rims than the subaru. I am also going to pick up an alloy drive shaft and bearings. Then after I make some ABS drift tires I should have a good...slow drifter

Any advice for an electric noob?

Here is the car http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXLWS2&P=0

Hi, need some help with tt-01 running really hot. So hot the whole thing just stops running for a few seconds then starts up again. Its quite a new motor (Corrally 19T). Good it be the speed controller thats causing the problem or motor?

rcluke

what ESC is it?

TIGER76

yeh if its the standard tamiya ESC it will struggle on some 19t motors and its meant to be a 23t limit esc,even my 21t runs hot in high temp weather []

rcluke

i thought that the TEU101BK was a 27T limit

mindwreck

haven't seen you in awhile.... great choice for a kit. What kind of advice do you need? good batteries is always a plus. always check wiring and swap connectors to deans or equivalent.

Drifting on abs,needs a good amount of throttle control and steering percision if you want your drifts to look graceful, however its fairly slow paced. I prefer rubber tires and chucking my car at full speed into corners with the tires smoking.

pimpedarse

do your tires really smoke? what kind of engine are you running mindwreck??

DirtBonez

I have no idea what deans are but the car is on the way so unless my lhs carries em I'll have get them later.

TIGER76

DEANS are better battery to ESC connectors (alot better than the tamiya ones they dont overheat etc)
