Solid Motor Mount for TB-03 Using the OP-1054

The OP-1054 aluminium motor adapter from Tamiya replaces the K-6 plastic motor mount supplied in TB-03 kits, delivering a firmer motor fixing point. It is particularly useful with higher torque motors and when paired with a .04 module spur gear to help limit wear on drivetrain parts.

Benefits of an Aluminium Adapter

Aluminium provides a stiffer structure and better heat spread than plastic, helping the motor remain correctly positioned under strain. This reduces unwanted movement and keeps gear engagement more consistent.

Installation Recommendations

Fit the adapter using correct fasteners and confirm motor alignment before use. Rechecking screw tightness after initial runs and using a .04 module spur gear will help maintain consistent performance and reduce component wear.

No, installation follows the original motor mount location on the TB-03; basic hand tools and attention to alignment are all that is needed.
By reducing flex and holding the motor more securely, the aluminium adapter helps maintain stable gear mesh, which can improve reliability under load.
Maintain the same checks as before but pay particular attention to motor mounting screws and gear mesh after the first few sessions to ensure long term stability.
