Tamiya TT02 Yeah Racing Drift Conversion

[@JSN2308]

Incredible! One question, are these wheels included in that chassis? If so, which chassis is it included in? Looks like it's not in tt02

[@2mmrc]

Thank you! I believe the wheels are from my Tamiya TA03RS porsche kit.

@@2mmrc thank you

Just installed the same kit and mine spins out so easily. It’s my first rc car and realize o should have gotten a proper RWD chassis but trying to make adjustments to get it usable. Mind sharing all your turnbuckle measurements?

[@2mmrc]

I would recommend using the turnbuckle settings in the instructions, and then adjusting your camber to be relatively flat. These are not easy cars to drift and tune for beginners. But keep at it and enjoy the journey as you tune and drive!

Why is it that when I turn the steering wheel to one side, the wheel on that same side doesn't turn as much, but the wheel on the other side turns a lot more?

[@lxtr.420]

i also have a tt02 with drift conversion kit by yeah racing

[@2mmrc]

Difficult to say without knowing more information. But a good starting point would be to go back and zero out all your steering trims & endpoints, then re-attach/rebuild your steering mechanism - which includes the servo horn attachment. Hope that helps!

I thinking about buying a tto2 any advice before buying.

[@2mmrc]

Make sure you buy it for the right reasons. Ultimately, if buying a TT02 and building it will make you happy, then you should go do it. Enjoy!

What kind of putty did you put in the diff?

[@2mmrc]

Most putty is the same. With that said, I believe I used T-works.

[@Brown19955]

What is your servo? Is stock servo tt02 works?

[@2mmrc]

I typically use a PowerHD R12 or a PowerHD D15. They are low profile servos that have a fast transit time and decent torque.

[@reevesc87]

What wheels are those?

[@brickalbert7031]

Standard from TT 02D

[@lionbaghdasarian3145]

Would u say that the tt02 with a few more mods than Urs would compare against yokomos?

[@lionbaghdasarian3145]

Do also think that if u put alot of time into the tt02 that its as good as the yokomo? Im Looking forward to mount the battery on the rear und Balance the weight

[@2mmrc]

The TT02 w/ Drift conversion should be able to drift as well as a Yokomo RD1.0, with enough tuning & practice. With that said, a Yokomo RD1.0 is better tuned for drifting on smooth flat surfaces at the moment. I also enjoy driving it a bit more than my TT02 drift conversion. The Tamiya is a capable platform, but I don't have enough information to say that it's comparable with a Yokomo with the same amount of mods (The RD1.0 is a great car, though it is pretty basic out of the box).

[@lionbaghdasarian3145]

@@2mmrc do you i think it could compete and Tandem with other rwd Chassis? If yes im looking forward to getting ine

[@2mmrc]

I do not have sufficient information on your background, your skillset, or your tuning abilities to give you an answer. I can tell you that with over 20 years of competing in RC events and tuning my own setups, that I am confident enough to compete with a TT02 w/ Yeah Racing drift conversion kit. But your personal results may vary. Have fun and hopefully this information helps.

@@2mmrc ok thanks tho

[@Brown19955]

Hi sir mine is not working hard to control and drift its all stock my tyres is mst plastic its drift conversion like that can u help me

[@2mmrc]

Unfortunately I do not have sufficient information to give you any valid advice, other than to keep on practicing and don't give up. Have a great day and keep on enjoying RC cars!

[@Nate101Dawg]

You need a gyro

[@Calsonic800]

For the money you spend on this conversion, you get a proper drift chassis... It would be interessting for under half the price which the conversion costs.

[@2mmrc]

Correct. A proper drift chassis like a Yokomo RD1.0 would typically perform better than this converted TT02 chassis, when driven by the same person or by two people of similar skill levels. With that said, part of the fun of the TT02 drift conversion is the journey of completing the build.

[@WigglesTTH]

All this talking and we don't even get to see it run?
