I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Save my trial and error. So many videos show how 'hop ups' only should be all that's achievable to improve performance. I've gotten more out of this video than 100 others. Thanks heaps mate
You are very knowledgeable sir. May God bless you always. I enjoy watching your video because you are always willing to share your knowledge. Please take care sir
Wonderful to see the 1/12 suddenly show up. Yes, I think they are great: complaints these days (lst 20 years) about costs of RC but as you said, if it's pure racing and driving the cheap 1/12th does everything.
Can you expand on the teflon tape idea. Did you infill the area behind the tape - the central driveshaft area. I wondered about using expanding foam or glue and then sanding it flat.
Thanks for sharing your setups. I just restarted a couple of years ago after 35 years and everything is brand new to me, we didn't have all these options at the time. You say in this video that you put some super glue on the ball and teflon. But can you please explain where exactly? I don't understand. Thank you.
It's kinda hard to explain, but I have older videos on how to remove slop. In areas where you have slop try to slightly increase the diameter of parts with a very very light coat of superglue or wrap with plumbing teflon tape (e.g. ballcups).
I have question on motor, are you using 5.5T sensor or no sensor? Also didn't see you set your esc using the setting card often? Please talk about motor and esc, thanks.
I guess you are right on tt01 vs tt02, recent tt02 plastic tend to be brittle, older day tt01 plastic tend to soften, but sadly I disposed my tt01 already. I still have M05, can I do similar? putting a 5.5T motor on it?
@@rccartips I see, are you running all plastics with your drive line? Great work your doing there Bro, It makes it more special that your Daughter is involve, passing the hobby to the next Generation.🍺
hey boss back again on another vid asking for some clarification. Where you talk about droop, specifically how many o rings you have to limit the shock (and arm i guess) uptravel. My question is this, what is the thickness of these orings? i assume 1mm cross section but i did want to ask. Obviously if they're 2mm instead; thats a massive difference in limiting the uptravel. Also are these base tips for the car more than anything? Or specific catering to one surface? Thanks in Advance. Arwel
Similar to my set up. I use yeah racing big bore oil shocks which I noticed were significantly superior to others I've used. I have also smoothed the bottom and added foam like yours. 10BL120 with 10.5t quicrun g2 gets it moving nicely. My servo is a 32kg omg which is overkill but works so well
@@rccartipsxray or yokomo 20mm spring compatible with tamiya super mini cva shock? Or big bore shocks? thanks in advance, I'm studying your videos building 2 tt01e inspired by your channel.

Glad it helps :)
Thanks for all the tips.
My pleasure. Hope they help.

The teflon tape I wrap around the ends of the suspension arm.
@@rccartips Yes I noticed that, but what about around MIn 2 what tape is that then?
Is the brand new TT01 that they sell now here in the US still good?
Should be the same.

What shocks are you using? I thought the kit shocks can't use oil?
Tamiya super short plastic oil filled shocks. Not the friction shocks.
Thanks sharing. I wonder if the same can be done on TT02? As there are more TT02 parts around nowadays.
Yeah I'd like to know your thoughts on TT02
TT02 should be similar. But I think TT01 is faster :)
I have question on motor, are you using 5.5T sensor or no sensor? Also didn't see you set your esc using the setting card often? Please talk about motor and esc, thanks.
Sensored. The esc is Hobbywing QUICRUN 10BL120 set to medium power punch and no timing.
@@rccartips A sensoed motor can be US$38.5, if un sensor motor almost half price... would you consider unsensor motor?
@@mokka8727 Unsensored is also good.

I still have M05, can I do similar? putting a 5.5T motor on it?
You can but you might shred the front tires :D
Chewing gum or 1M silicone front? What is better? If is gum, how much you need and when is necessary change the gum? Thx!!
Gum. No need to change :)
@@rccartips rear 1M o without anything?
1M spread on the gears, not filling the diff.
Very informative kabayan.

Noticed your using hex bolts with your TT01. Where did you get those? Thanks in advance.🍺
online shop in my country called shopee.

Are you using gyro with your TT-01?
@@Jeremy-Joshua Yes driveline can be all plastics with no issues.
@@Jeremy-Joshua I never use gyros :)

I think the orings are 1.5mm or so. Base setup that should get you in the ballpark.

Nice!
Where can we buy your traction sauce?
Right now I can only sell in my country, Philippines. I need to figure out how to sell globally :)
So the tt01 can compete against other high end touring cars?
In our small indoor mall track yes.
Rear springs should be stiffer than the front?!
For TT01 either I have all 4 springs the same or stiffer in the rear. :)
