Default TA-04R setup tips, anyone??

Hello to all drifters,

After drifting my TT-01D for a while, thinks it`s time to upgrade to another chassis, the TT-04R. Me can`t wait for it to arrive at my door steps, so wondering is there any drifters here can share some inputs regarding this chassis and your favourite setup tips too?

Thanks in advance!!

Wow... RC Mart is truely efficient, I`m collecting my TA-04R kit tomorrow at my local post, just after three days when my address verification had been approved! Can`t wait to get hold of my second drifter. Is there any drifters out there can share their secret weapon setup here? Really like to know more about it!

i dont have a TA-04R but i do have a TA-04s and it drifts beautifully out of the box. Lock the rear diff and you'll be good to go!

ddd,

Thanks for the advise. I`ve tried locked the rear, but no matter how hard I tightened the screws, the rear wheels still turn in other directions! This is the first time I encounter with ball diff, so don really know whats the best way to lock it. Is blue tag good?

oh you've got a ball diff? excellent. Really just tighten it down a mess. Ive got bevel gears in mine so i just shove crap in there. Tightening the ball diff is good. The blu tack stuff only works on the bevel gear diffs. Tightening it should do the job.
