    Aha! So, there is an adjustable link arm kit (part number 54845), which will allow me to adjust the link length and align the servo saver and gearbox. However, if someone can come up with a reason why the standard parts aren't behaving, I'd still love to know! Cheers.

      It's like the Tamiya servo spline is a few mm different position compared to other brands, so the length of the arm is off by a few mm.

      The Tamiya adjustable rod includes a permanent mount for the balance rod. It'll stop popping off.

      Everything for the T3-01 is on sale at the main Tamiya USA site, so I just finished saving all kinds of money by spending a shiz-ton of money (?) buying Hop Up parts for a Dual Rider that isn't even here yet. Thanks again, Mike, I _just_ finished the King Yellow you _explicitly_ instructed me to buy, and now this... Make room, shelf queens, a trike is inbound!

      Can you please upload an update film to show how the 54845 is placed? Also, do you think additional hop-ups are of interest, e.g. 54843 or 54835 ? Thanks for the great review and I'm looking fwd for a followup on this cool most Tamiya ever.

    This is one of my favourite Tamiyas! I have a standard and a modified one with a brushless motor and they are huge fun! A few of us race them from time to time on our local carpet track and we have so much fun with them :)

    • @TheRCScotsman

      Sounds like a great time! A race with these must be a riot.

    I use a small heat gun (came with an Amazon heat shrink tubing kit) and soapy water to apply decals. The King Yellow was rough with this problem, especially the large stickers that lay over the side windows. For the tough ones, my advice is to move the air bubbles to make one or two large bubbles, and pop it with a pin or a hobby knife. It's easier to move the air around after you heat it up a bit - just remember to not go too hot (keep a finger next to the sticker while you heat, don't burn yourself and you shouldn't hurt the sticker either)

      I use more or less the same approach but with a cheap hair dryer I purchased just for putting on RC car decals, after being told off for miss use of a much more expensive one :-) . I also find it helps the decals to stretch over curves better which helps a lot with headlight and tail light decals.

      This SOB (with love Mike) started me down a rabbit hole, I'm pretty sure I watched every T3-01 video in the known galaxy. Just got a gift card from work, so had to pull the trigger on this thing's sexy twin sister, the Dual Rider, and all the hop ups I thought should be slapped on. At least this one will be easier to -hide- explain to my significant other :)

    Hey man nice to meet you. I am across the pond. Love little special things like this trike. I like seeing your speed Rlaarlo in the background. I haven't put up a video of it yet but its done. Integy was selling off all their parts for it so I made an Integy one. I did not use the pillar stickers because of those reasons. Also in the areas like the rear panels where it is suppose to wrap around the edges I cut the sticker so its just the flat part. no edge coverage. Reason I did that is it looks much better to me that way.

      Hello! Nice to meet you, too. Yeah, the trike is great. Really enjoyable RC. Sounds good, nice work!

    I just built one of these too, I find the roll bars pop off really easily. I also tried with M chassis drift tires on the rear which was fun for donuts

    I agree that it's one of the more unusual r/c's from Tamiya. I have seen videos of races with these contraptions and it looked like a lot of fun. Is it possible to mount the servo horn so it's slightly off center, but the outriggers are centered? They make an aluminum servo horn that may be slightly different. I like the color you chose. The rider looks very good.

  • @Droidy77

    You'll end up with lots of gravel rash on the nerf bars and the roof edges of the shell, so don't sweat the stickers lifting/wrinkling as they get grated off.

  • @rcinhand9671
    @rcinhand9671 Год назад +1

    The servo saver is not centered because you're using a 25 tooth servo and saver. They will never be centered due to the odd numbered teeth. Get the adjustable arm, or use a 24 tooth servo.
