I don't know which type of tbar I have on my F40.

Assuming it's a Group C, it would be the same ("offset" F103 style) as shown.

The GT-One shell is really wide - and the current diffuser looks quite tiny on it. The B type TRG's a little wider.
I think it might be a nice addition for the F40 on the other hand. And style wise it's a better match for both as well.

Cutting that Zen diffuser was one of the least pleasant RC building experiences I've had by the way.
Really weird material, smelt like cr*p as well.



The TRG one looks easier to adjust (at least I really do hope so) - no precut version available anymore that I could find.

On TC somebody is 3D printing diffusers for a C11, shouldn't be hard to go that way for other models.

not sure that the real F40 has a diffuser. I don't remind it on the one into I put the back. But the tam looks empty under the body

As far as I know, it only started to be an official optional item from the F104 on...
So if it had one, it wouldn't be a Tamiya in any case.

Definitely looks good.

I begun the rebuilding of the HS2 with changing the bad and missing screws. greasing gearboxes with copper grease. I should put a full bearing set but the nylons were in correct state and the budget is light now. Straight alloy parts too (but I am not a metal work pro )
The end this evening. Maybe a small work on the body but really not sure.

Tonight I continued my workshop clean and with wheels + parts heading to France, another trade package heading to the UK who knows where this lot will end up I have another bunch of parts, this time ORV bit's, They are all used but would be good to keep your runner going I have chucked any really damaged parts out, so even though they're not pretty they are solid

How much to France?
Someone will kill me.
