Here is my new tam. The restoration doesn't need a lot of work. Only small cares and new goodies like tires, a bodyset probably. It has a metal motor support.
It has nice electronic. An acoms at5 esc and a first gen futaba attack sr. I am waiting ball bearings and I have a small matter: which motor mount ? I have several possibilities. A 540 SD technipower, A 540 VZ technigold A M&Y special buggy Or a trinity twister or a smt 14x3 Wich one could be nice? And wich motor pinion have I to put on it? Thanks for advices guys. |

I found the esc manual but I don't know if it supports big motors like ones I want to put on the tf. Have somebody suggestions? Thanks

Great Top Force, Flo!
For me, the motor has to be a Tamiya one, the TechniPower sounds like a good choice! Signature now gets correct formatting if you edit it in your Profile. Use normal BBcode if you want.

Thanks a lot Lars.
Can I keep the 21t motor pinion? Or should I use a smaller? Gears are in great condition. I need to replace a big quantity of screws. |

Probably the 18t or 19t should be better. I have to try the ESC. Not sure that it supports the technipower.

Thank you. I saw that I need a complete rear gearbox. All screw holes are brocken on the upper cover. The first owner had too tighten screws. I have only a red box
