Why Titanium Works Well

With a high strength to weight ratio, titanium cuts unnecessary mass while keeping joints strong. The Tamiya 40550 set helps the GT-01 remain responsive and durable, suitable for competitive track sessions or spirited club runs.

Do these screws need special tools?

No special tools are required beyond a correctly sized 2.6mm hex driver. Using the right driver reduces wear on the screw heads and speeds installation.

How much weight will I save?

Weight savings depend on the number of titanium fasteners used compared to steel originals. This set focuses on small but meaningful reductions where mass matters for handling.

Is thread locker safe with titanium?

Low strength thread locker suitable for RC use is fine. Apply sparingly and avoid high strength formulas that make future disassembly difficult.
