Lightweight Aluminium Shafts for the M-08 Concept

Hobbyists chasing better handling will find the Tamiya 54906 M-08 Concept Aluminum Shaft Set OP-1906 a useful tweak. The set replaces the stock steel centre, counter and idler shafts with aluminium parts, shaving off 5.8 grams and helping the car respond quicker to inputs.

Why Fit Aluminium Shafts

Aluminium lowers rotating mass, so the drivetrain reacts faster to throttle and braking. That translates to improved on-power turn-in and snappier acceleration out of slow corners, which is handy on technical layouts.

Easy Fitment for M-08 Concept Owners

These shafts are made to match the M-08 Concept chassis specifications, so no cutting or extra machining is required. Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic RC maintenance.

Will aluminium shafts reduce durability compared with steel?

Aluminium is lighter but generally softer than steel, so you may see more wear in very hard impacts. For controlled track use it offers a good balance of weight savings and service life.

Are bearings or spacers changed when fitting these shafts?

The shafts are designed to work with the standard M-08 bearing and spacer layout. Inspect bearings during the swap and replace any worn parts for best results.

What track conditions benefit most from this upgrade?

Technical indoor and smooth outdoor circuits that reward quick transitions will show the biggest improvements from lower rotating mass.
