I know that the motor y'all speak of is not a tamiya product but i can get the motor in my store anytime so that not a huge issue... but the other parts are another story. When i got the kit my manager was like what the **** is that. needless to say i have to order all the parts for it. Another odd question i have is about the "belt tensioners" that are offered for it. They go in the beside the center gears but how on earth do they actual tighten the belt??? or is the idea that it applies more pressure to the belt on the gear? I hope my wording is understandable. I dont know that this will help you I4n but i read about cutting vent holes in the body and putting mesh in to help cool it down maybe that could help? Either way thanks alot guys... looks like ill be ordering parts soon.  |
This is what happen when you pain the body according to the manual. Anything that is black and purple is always going to be hard to see so you should paint according to your taste not the manufacturer's taste. The reason why most Tamiya parts are discontinued is because there are too many similar parts under different part numbers that are exactly the same so Tamiya decided to discontinue the part and consolidated them onto a new part number. They usually list them on the part you are looking for and the alternative part that replaces it.
You can cut a hole on top of the motor on the body itself and put some kind of foam to cover it yet keeping the airflow at high speed.
