Walterson 5/1 brass gearboxes.
Posted: Tue Jul 19, 2016 11:22 pm
I was thinking about what gearboxes to get that would fit the mount of my "ASIATAM" PZ4 Metal Hull when I remembered a box of "Waltersons" Brass 5/1s that I bought for a Tiger 1,
Too late I had discovered that the ones I had bought were for a Heng Long Tiger and that my Tiger was a "TAIGEN" which has a different mount BUT would they fit a PZ4 ASIATAM Mount ?
YES,!!
Well almost,
I had to pin vise a hole in the mount then tap a thread for a second mounting screw which was no problem,
What I want to know is will they fit under a yet to be purchased Heng Long PZ4 Body ?
If they do it would save me £45 + and make use of a decent set of gearboxes that until now were gathering dust.
