PSM TA07 FWD conversion kit

PSM from Germany have released a FWD conversion kit for the Tamiya TA07 touring car. The kit will transform the TA07 4WD vehicle into a high performance, full carbon fibre front-wheel drive chassis. It was developed to provide precise and agile handling characteristics and features PSM’s new and unique O-ring style battery mount that allows for quick and easy battery access along with options for battery position adjustments. Also new with this conversion kit is a unique carbon fibre motor mount, featuring a brass PSM emblem. Considering that FWD classes usually race motors with 17.5T and upwards, head dispersion is not an issue and the carbon fibre motor mount brings in low weight and high stiffness. The conversion kit was designed for low profile servos and shorty-style batteries only and it includes 2.25mm carbon fibre chassis and upper deck parts, aluminium steering posts, carbon fibre starting braces, carbon fibre battery braces, a carbon fibre motor mount, a Bando S3M drive belt, as well as mounting hardware.
