Boost driveline smoothness on TC-01

The Tamiya 54961 Double Cardan Prop Shaft replaces the stock dog-bone parts to deliver a cleaner transfer of torque on the TC-01 chassis. Its steel build helps maintain consistent rotation through steering and suspension movement.

Performance benefits explained

The Double Cardan joint allows near-true rotation at different angles, reducing friction and power losses associated with conventional dog-bone arrangements. This yields smoother throttle response and more reliable driveline behaviour.

Installation notes and set quantity

Designed for TC-01 compatibility, this prop shaft is a drop-in replacement for the original dog-bone and cup pieces. Each set contains parts to assemble one shaft; buy two to upgrade both the front and rear.

Installation is straightforward for those familiar with TC-01 maintenance: remove the stock dog-bones, assemble the Double Cardan parts, and check alignment. Basic tools and some patience are all that is required.
Steel construction offers better durability under load than plastic dog-bone parts, making it a sensible upgrade if you fit higher power motors or run on rough surfaces.
Yes, re-torque screws and re-check joint play after a short test run to ensure everything has seated correctly and there is no unwanted movement.
