Alternative 1/16th Transmissions
I still can't believe noone makes aftermarkket trannies for Tamiya 1/16 tanks. I want to put 540s in my Tigers so I get the same power as my Leo. I dare not think about the cost of buying a Leo gearbox in pieces[:o] Is there a company that makes such a thing. And, no. I will not be happy with 400 motors. Give me 540s or give me death. It's what the colonialists would have said.

Your only option is to upgrade gearbox and motors separately, Markus Horn out of Germany produces a very exspensive rock-solid ball-bearing raced gearbox for the Tamiya tanks for around 300USD.
As for using 540's, the Leo power plant is the only feasible option as a drop-in (use that term loosely) for a serious upgrade to the WWII tanks whether Tamiya or Hen Long! |

Tanks a lot!
Has anybody got them? How are they? They have 1/145 gear ratio. So, I presume, no gear reductions will be needed. Right? Also, they are cheaper than gearbox upgrade from Wecohe!!! And they go with 400 motors!
