Tamiya TT02 Upgrades - High Speed Gear Set

[@ebandcamp]

I use the Yeah racing TT02 motor mount . Aluminum and variable adjustments just put a strip of paper between gears and tighten to give a bit of gear lash which is needed . The aluminum is great for heat transfer with a slight weight gain but not sure , that’s a fat hunk of stock plastic .

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

We’ve done plenty of upgrading since then.

I've changed the 68T spur for 64T and using a 29T pinion

[@volla40]

With 4000kv brushless on 3S. Not for the faint hearted.

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

I’ll be switching to the same pinion set up soon.

I like your style, but I think it's the esc that's holding us back, I'm going to try something else in mine and let you know how I get on with it.🎉😮😅😂😊

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

Maybe an esc upgrade is in the pipeline

[@scaleworksRC]

Sticking with brushed? 60A ESC should hold up fine even with that 64t spur

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

Was thinking of eventually going brushless and lipo but seen too many battery fires on social media this week. Stick with brushless this year.

[@scaleworksRC]

@@rctamiyaaddict4687 Yeah that can always be a worry, but I try to keep mine in a steel lock box when not in use. I had good luck with the KingVal 5900kv and 60A motor/ESC combo getting into speed runs. It runs for about $50 and the motor mount is about $10. If you stay in the gearing chart, it should be cool, reliable and consistent for ya.

What motor is in it?

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

Torque tuned that came in the kit. Just installed a hpi racing fire bolt 15T for the next run.

[@SRG-HITMAN-11]

Better of with super stock motor or sports tuned for to end speed

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

Will add a super stock at some point

[@Paul__FC]

Thank sir , good work. Those Tamiya motors are hit and miss. It might just be dieing out on you.

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

Going to switch it over for the next run

[@aviano72]

What about those red wheels ? the sidewalls look smaller than the stock so that is not so strange you dropped speed This speed gear set is std in all my TT02's 😉Although i buy the Yeah Racing one. Also the YR motor mount is awesome as you can adjust better than the Tamiya one Try 63T #51356, or change the spur to a 48dp/64dp to go even faster

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

I tested the wheels against the stock ones and there was no change in speed, but will be looking for more suitable ones. I have a few pinions to try and a 64T spur to put in there. Thanks for watching and the comments.

[@thediscoverworkshop_asmr1096]

Yeah, change to a brushless motor

[@rctamiyaaddict4687]

Someone gave some very good tech advice saying I’ve pretty much reached my limit and need to switch to go faster.
