Tamiya Gearbox- Drive Sprocket question.

Post by BarryC »

Hi guys,

Are there any after market gearboxes that will mate to the Tamiya drive sprockets? Specifically the PZ IV.
From reading here I understand that the Tamiya final drive axle has a different shaped drive key.

TIA,
Barry

Jarndice,

I had forgotten about the ETO GBs.

The more I look into purchasing the static version and equipping it with AM GBs and electronics from a dollar perspective it makes more sense to purchase the FO version.


Thanks,
Barry
