Tamiya M04 Mini R/C Car with Novak Brushless 4.5r Tamiya M04 Mini R/C Car with Novak Brushless 4.5r

Just for fun, running my Tamiya M04 mini r/c car with a Novak 4.5r brushless motor and Orion 3200 lipo battery. Tires are home made sorex cut to 57mm diameter.

My testing ended when... [Read more of this review]

The M04 is rear wheel drive, and cannot be beaten by a fwd if properly setup. It’s easy to do. Just buy regular Sorex touring car tires, cut off enough rubber to... [Read more of this review]
