Tamiya TB-05 alloy motor & spur gear mounts
Tamiya have announced the soon release of new aluminium option parts for the shaft-driven TB-05 touring car. First up is the integrated motor plate that incorporates a built-in motor spacer and heatsink, ensuring improved rigidity, easier assembly and better heat dissipation. The motor plate comes blue anodised and including mounting hardware.
Also coming is an aluminium spur gear hub with the lightweight part replacing the standard steel adapter for a lighter and more precise item. The hub comes hard-coated for wear and it will allow for quicker spool up and acceleration due to reducing rotational masses.
