Tamiya CC01 with GPM Steering Assembly and Turnigy MG959 High Torque Servo

Tamiya CC01 Land Cruiser Chassis. Fixed the standard sloppy steering using the GPM Aluminum Steering Assembly and Turnigy MG959 Allo High Torque Servo. Gives a much more precise and powerful steering.

i've got this kit, but still very slopppy. what servo saver are you using? i'm still using stock, with Turnigy hIgh torque.

I´m using the Tamiya High Torque Sarver Saver, combined with an aluminum servo saver horn which fits the Tamiya high tourque servo saver. This works great. If your CC-01 is a slow runner, you can also use a normal aluminum servo horn, without using a servo saver. Gives a very precise steering.

It's got the turning radius of a limousine. Any way to make it turn sharper? Thinking about getting one of those chassis.

For a better turning radius you can use the GPM Aluminum Front Knuckle Arms and GPM Steel Universal Swing Shafts. They allow a much better steering radius. So the car turns much sharper. It´s also possible to modifiy the original plastic Knuckle Arms. But in every way you have to use the Universal Swing Shafts, as the original dogbones will pop out with more turning radius.

Hi, many thanks for your comment. My GPM steering works quite well too. After ca. 1,5 hours of running, nothing is coming loose. I´ve used Tamiya AG Thread Lock Gel on mine.
