Does Hupo use the arm modification just on the front, or front and rear?

I think Hupo is running a version of the J concept body or Tamiya version of J Concept body. The person who is running the Baldre body is Cedric. If Tamiya ever consider making a shaft driven 501x class buggy is because the BJ4x4/B44 are so successful plus Tamiya has history with shaft driven cars so transitioning from one to another is not so drastic (compared to from TB EVOII to 414M/M2 with TA03 as the excuse ). |

Hi Jimmy,
Was it yellow or flourescent yellow kyosho springs hupo uses? |

Pretty sure it is the normal yellows, #65, and I think he also cuts them down!

Hi. So the Baldre shell will fit the 501x and line up with the under tray with a little modification? Like Cedric's? Our LHS only has the Bladre in stock and I'm in a bit of a hurry getting a new shell Thanks!

According to Tam USA, the improvement is because they work more efficiently at a wider range of suspension angles. You need to use different front steering uprights (included in the pack), so to carry spare front uprights also buy 54131! Dave |

jimmy,
is there any new news on this? was thinking of getting the old Dyna Storm as I want to run a Tamiya 2WD, but if there's any news on a New TRF 2WD then i'm going to have to wait. Cheers Dez |

I'll probably end up getting the new hotbodies 2wd D2, and run it until tamiya makes one, anyone else think that 2wd looks cool?
All I know is the 501x is one tough car, raced it for the first time last weekend and didnt break anything but the wing. It's one balllistic beast with that tekin 3T motor I chose. I was able to clear the tripple many times. It so fast my steering servo cant keep up with it...lol. Probably just needs adjustment. Steering EPA or whatever. I had a little too much toe in also, so I'll need to fix that also. 40wt oil in front, 35WT in rear seemed about right. I'll probably look into Hupo's setup, to get the car more dialed in.

I was just about to buy an XXX-CR to take care of my nagging lust for a 2WD buggy, but now I'm just a little too curious to buy one just yet..

has anyone been following the redesigned Dynastorm thread on Tamiyaclub? Some engineers have been creating a really tasty looking conversion kit for the car alot like the Trf202x prototypes.

This is really a thread on a guy redesigning and strengthening parts already made! This there a thread or pics on the TRF202X ???? |

not quite, the guy is taking the weaknesses and updating the car to make it competitive. Its not any different to what 'real' manufacturers do when they upgrade their cars. He is also redesigning the layout etc.
As to the TRF car, its quite old (The dynastorm was the production version of this car) here is a link http://www.rcfan.net/trf211x/index.html it was the 211 and 212 . |

Sorry for the comment, I thought that we were going somewhere else with it! As for the TRF212X, I must have been on the moon at this time, was unaware that the Dyna Storm became the production kit! Many thanks for filling in the blanks. |
