The Tamiya 53322 Hollow Carbon Gear Shaft set upgrades the TL-01 drivetrain by replacing heavier stock shafts with hollow carbon alternatives. These shafts are aimed at hobbyists seeking quicker throttle response and reduced drivetrain drag.
Using carbon fibre reduces the rotating mass of the gear train, which can improve acceleration and make the car feel more responsive in traffic and tight sections. The construction balances low weight with the stiffness needed for reliable power transfer.
Each shaft fits TL-01, TL01B and Stadium Raider applications as direct replacements. The 5mm outer diameter fits common bearings and gear setups used on these chassis types.
It is recommended to install eight 5x11mm bearings along with these shafts for correct support of idler, spur and counter shafts. Make sure bearings are seated squarely and lubricated appropriately to avoid excess wear.
