Fitting notes and skill level

Fitting the Tamiya 53342 Speed-Tuned Gear Set requires removing the stock plastic gears from your TL-01 and swapping in the new parts. Basic modelling tools and moderate mechanical skill are enough, and the included instructions cover the steps.

An intermediate hobbyist can fit the gears with common tools. You should be comfortable opening the gearbox and aligning gears to the correct mesh before sealing the unit.
Lowering the ratio raises rotational speeds through the drivetrain, so inspect bearings and shafts regularly and replace worn parts to avoid premature failure.
Yes, the set is suited to flat tarmac or smooth club tracks where the higher top speed is beneficial. For rough surfaces you may prefer standard gearing for better driveability.
