Found it at an online hobby store like SabulaTech, but a lot smaller - just via a simple Google search...pure luck. It was the only one they had, trust me, I'da bought more!jwscab wrote:where did you find that? any more left? I need one!

That's pretty cool! Where did you get it if you don't mind me asking? Does it have reverse? I could use something like that to power a little 380 motor in a project I've got going.Funny, just a week ago my friend had me draw up and cut out a couple lwb chassis for those. I have no idea what he is doing, but the way he makes it sound people will want them.Incredible_Serious wrote:

Lots of alloy and carbon on this one - more pictures later, may add this to my showroom tonight if I get the chance.
I think it is from an RC aircraft of some sort. They are typically shrink wrapped like that since weight is such a premium, and about that size. I've got 4 about like that on my quad, 12A each. It probably won't have a brake or reverse.GoMachV wrote:Can't have reverse because it has a straight thru red wire. I wonder if it's from the airplane community? Does it have brakes?

Of everything I put up, THIS gets the most interest? Who knew! Anyway, I got this from one of the guys involved in the gone (but not forgotten) RC-Mini.net community, a mad keen Mini racer and someone who was always up to try something different (the dual IFS TA05 was his as well). Not sure if it was aircraft-based, or specifically developed for Mini racing back in the brushed days... but I will hook it up today and answer all questions. I am guessing NO to reverse (as M5 has said), and probably YES to brakes, but not strong brakes.mk-Zero wrote:I think it is from an RC aircraft of some sort.

That IS interesting..... maybe mention to your friend about the steering mod on this one, it's moved about 5 - 10mm to the left, which enables enough clearance for the brushless motor. Be interested in seeing what your friend is doing....GoMachV wrote:Funny, just a week ago my friend had me draw up and cut out a couple lwb chassis for those.

I'm loving the look of this!!! My favourite lot to pick up, one with ESCs, whether known or mystery..... looking forward to checking it out!R Cane wrote:Alex - love that TA05-IFS!
I've been picking up misc small lots to stock up on things to keep me busy while I'm stuck inside for the winter. I got this lot - 4 chassis and 30 to 40 wheels/tires (sorry for the pic quality, my phone camera sucks). There is also a drawer rack that came with it that has a ton of misc little pieces parts...servos, escs, etc. There were a couple goodies I didn't expect also, like a Novak 410-M5, a Speedworks Joel Magic Johnson motor, and a Technigold motor. And a handful of unlabeled silver can motors...who knows what they are. Might be a few other little surprises, I haven't really dug through it yet.
