TIGER76

Rare what would u recommend then. remembering its a TT-01 with ali prop,ballraced but standard acoms servo and tamiya speed controller.I only really wanna a bit more speed not loads i dont wanna install a motor that will destroy my esc or gears lol thanks for your help and soz for the noob questions just rather ask before buying anything and destroying my tt01 lol
I can go up to 50 pounds if needed but not wrecking the car is main concern really []
i read somewhere you can go to 19T before any problems occur is that right or bad advice??
thanks [8D]

My Mustang has Ghost stripes.

my advice is, shop around for whatever parts you get, often abroad is the best bet (for small bits) that aint gonna cost loads to ship. i have about 8 websites i check to see which is cheapest! i love a good deal!

Where did you get that Civic Si body from? It looks awesome.

rcluke

i know it's overkill, i was just giving him a comparasin in price

Mopar Or Nocar

What motor should i put into my tt-01???

rcluke

i would say a nice 27T (trinity monster) to a 20T

Mopar Or Nocar

is that a good motor for drifting cause i plan on doing that.

bIGmiK

The Tamiya Sports Tuned is best suited to the TT-01's in my opinion with 22 or 23/58 gearing.

Mopar Or Nocar

Thanks for the help bigmik.

bIGmiK

Running macthed packs the Sports tuned has more than enough power to spin the wheels until top speed, of around 30mph geared right.

lee172

does the same gear ratio apply if i am going for good exceleration, but not drifting??

rcluke

for drifting, i would reccomend the HPI Saturn 20T

it is a direct replacement for the HPI drift car

Mopar Or Nocar

what motor and gear ratio would you recomend to get about 40mph out of it.

F_B_I

Raguvian I got it long time ago for my first nitro RS4. Ive seen in on HPI's website an item thats still available.

bIGmiK

Yes, I find the 22or23/58 is best because it had the best acceleration to top-speed between all the ratio's.

ola guys im back again after a looonnnggggg absince.

update and thoughts, broke a front upright this weekend (still dont know how) so tip[s for the new guys, when you buy a adjustable upper arm set and you get those copper bal screw things, do NOT attach them to the botton front uprights. they scratch and brake the upright. unless you race on perfect track.
also everyone, do yourself the favour of getting GPM's alloy parts for the tt01, the are not expensive, but damn they are as light if not lighter than the standard plastic parts easier to install and i whole lot stronger, i got the alloy front uprights on right now in red and they also look awesome. will be installing ALL the gpm parts in the next few weeks.
I just became the distributor/importer of gpm into south africa and i must say i am impressed with the parts.

Also if you wanna spoil yourself and your esc hadles it, get a Lrp Gt3 17t double motor, this thing rocks!! it is just so fast, i went from the 19t to 17t this weekend and damn the difference is amazing.

guys now a question: I geared the car at 23/58 and it just flew (acceleration and topspeed), then stripped the gear with a stone (damn parking lot rocks!!), now i installed 25/55 which should give me a damn fast top speed, but i aint getting it!!, what could be wrong, any ideas?

bIGmiK

It is just geared to tall for the motor to push, that's called voer gearing.

Go back down to 23/58.

infernox

cool i thought is was overgeared, but expected a bit more. first havta go and buy new 58 and 23, those are f&^%$ed

bIGmiK

How on earth did a rock get it? It's a sealed area.

infernox

the tt01 tub strips screw holes very easily and i was using thread locker, so i didnt know it could lift (the cover that is), it lifted and bang, now ive cable tied it tight on there

bIGmiK

They only need to be snug, don't over do the screws.
