Re: Tamiya Sand Scorcher - 2010 Reissue

Nice choice of kit. Really fun to build. Even more fun to drive. It should have twelve 5x11 metal shielded ball bearings in the kit. I bought a Buggy Champ in 2009 and it came with twelve bearings.

Re: SRB Hop Up Pics & Info Thread

Years ago, I read about this diff on Tamiyaclub (Blasphemy! :D ). It's mentioned in the second post on page one by the member Tanker (2). https://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?/topic/9140-srb-balldiff/ I wondered about it for years and came to the conclusion that I'd probably never see one, or ...

They are. I was fortunate enough to grab a couple of KRs too. Well before prices rose to ridiculous levels.

Re: Race Prep is BACK! Ok not really but.... cages are!

Pretty cool. The cages just need the extra holes drilled in them to accommodate longer CB style Kyosho shocks.

Reedy Pro 19 Quad Mag motor

I've had this about eleven years now. This is the Pro hand wound version of the Spec 19 motor. These Quad Mag motors are really smooth to turn over by hand. 1.jpg 2.jpg One interesting thing of note is that the Pro sticker has been placed over the Spec sticker. You can just see the Spec sticker peek...

Fantom Limited Team Stock Motor

After reading the Son of Psycho thread I thought I'd share a picture of this motor that has been in my collection for eleven years now. It is very pink, especially when viewed in person.

Re: Kyosho Le Mans 600 ???

That's the one. It has 19 turns of .65mm wire plus bearings. Kyosho recommends 7.2v to 9.6v in a boat or plane. It'd still be fine in a car.

Re: Kyosho Le Mans 600 ???

I reckon it's a Le Mans AP36L Special. I have a brand spanking new one right beside me for reference. 550 motor, one piece can and removable endbell.

From memory the first Tamiya kits to come with Johnson motors were the Monster Beetle and Blackfoot. The reason was that the Johnsons produced more torque apparently.

I wonder if they fixed the build errors from the 2013 re-release manual? We'll find out soon enough.

Re: Trying to make a Tra**as SRT fast !

I concur with Mr Serious about RJ's performance. I was watching the finals on livestream. Very impressive considering the truck was finished not long before the event. Very well driven.👍 Was great to finally meet the guy, after we've given each other so much carp over the years on here! Wait! What??...
