New Brushless Motor From Tamiya

54132 RC Brushless Motor 01 12T-D

From TamiyaUsa;

''This new easy to maintain off-road use brushless motor is perfect for beginner R/C offroad users. This motor has excellent protective qualities to prevent dirt and debris from interfering with its operations.

About the Model;
This Brushless motor has the same power output as that of a 23T brushed motor.
To be used with off-road chassis machines.''

I think this is a great news for upgrading 23T SuperStock TZ Motor to an equivalent Brushless Motor.

TRF416 World 'Champion' Edition

Marc Rheinard have been 2008 IFMAR ISTC Champion after a really exciting battle with the event's TQ,Hara.I was waiting for this championship from Rheinard and Tamiya for over many years and they have done it in a great way...He's always been my rc driver idol...The photo above reminds me Initial D battles.It was like Takumi driving on the curb and passing his rival from inside....Congratulation Tamiya and Marc...You are officially the BEST now....

TA05 Test with Bumper Weights

I added the urethane bumper with 35g lead weight inside on my TA05.I've tested it on my TA05R a few months ago which I didn't like how my TA05R handled and reacted.Today I didn't like it one more time .It made my TA05 response slower and caused too much off power oversteer....I took it off the chassis again ....

And I need to buy new set of T-Drifts as my tires worn out too much .....

Golf GTI Pirelli Edition...

I might add some minor details but not sure yet.....

WIP VW Golf GTI Pirelli Edition

Painted,stickered still to be ready for photoshoots.........The colour is neat and vivid just expected.....This is why it's in somewhere top of my favorite paints' list.....

Finally Got Paint for My VW Golf

I also got 2 PS54 Cobalt Greens earlier which I didn't mentioned before....

This time is a PS15 Metallic Red...I love this colour,it's one of my favorite colours...

I'm thinking of replicating Pirelli's version of Golf V with metallic red in colour.....

First Breakage

Diff Outdrive is broken.... It was happened while I touch the wall slightly while clipping max point on the clipping point ..... I have ever never broken any part ....so this is my first time ...

Got a 3Racing solid diff from my LHS instead of buying same plastic diff outdrives...but don't worry 3Racing one is just temporarily fitted I'll get the tamiya direct couplings soon.....(They weren't in stock in my LHS)

Falken Azenis RT615 Mounted on

Mounted on HPI Rays GramLights 57S-Pro 0mm offset

Silvercan Powered TA05 Build Up

Front Tightened ball diff

Rear Custom locked ball diff

Front and rear carbon reinforced damper stays

TRF shocks with 400 oil in front and 300 oil in rear with stock silver springs(rates between tamiya yellow and blue).

An old blue aramid belt on the rear

Electronics from TT01D with an old Mabuchi Silvercan from one of my buggies.....

That's it .... Tests showed that TA05 is a great chassis out of the box whether it's underpowered or without a long setup session...Drifts much faster than my TZ powered TT01 and there is no need for an expensive motor I think for now.....This chassis will be my new practice car and will test new tires(HPI T-Drift Replicas)new electronics or maybe a Brushless System ....

Information Book for TB03 and TA05

I call it encyclopedia as it doesn't look like a book.It's writen in Japanese but the pictures and graphics,charts etc. explains all that you don't need to understand what is writen....

It's mostly about TA05 & TA05IFS...

I'm back...

I haven't been able to connect to Internet for over 2 weeks but now I'm back...Since this time I assembled my old TA05 with the retirement of my TT01D ...
