Hello!

I have got metal tracks for my T1. To avoid hull twisting, I am planning to make chassis re-inforcement plate.

Will it be enough? Or will I have to do more upgrades to keep the gears safe?

Regards,
Eugene

hi kamarad !
hi guess that you are talking about the heng long t1 ?

No, it is for Tamiya T1.
I want to use metal tracks.So some improvements are to be made.

Hello Eugene

I would recommend a stronger idler axel as my metal tracked Tiger broke its idler axel (cast metal) usning the metal tracks after a year and a half!

The hull can be significantly reinforced with the speakerbox mounting by bolting it in the four corners through the lower hull fender!

By the way, idler axel breakage occured with NO gear reductions, which tells me the metal tracks are hard on the system.
