- Tamiya's stunning C11 RC kit, Radio control at its best
I have wanted to build this very popular kit for some time and when they were re-released last year I missed out as they sold out so quickly. When the second batch were released a short time ago I jumped on one.
This is part two of a three part series where :
Part 1 - Unboxing and chat
Part 2 - The chassis build
Part 3 - the body and finishing

Brilliant video, looks awesome and has inspired me to finish my tt-02 body. Be careful we need a cutting mat not a cut matt
Best comment on the channel so far!! 'we need a cutting mat not a cut matt'
Nice to see the builds cant wait for the next.
More to come!
I hadn't previously realised that the body shell is a really 'one shot' job. Nerve wracking - one slip with the scalpel...!
It only needs a light score so very little pressure and a slow cut.
@@dustyshelfcollectables I'll still confine myself to watching others do it Matt😅. Very nice job by the way - you have every right to feel pleased about it.
I assume the Vac formed body is for lightness in racing ,I like the A B S body better but excellent work sir.
I guess so, defiantly a better finish on the ABS but not as forgiving when you chrah!
What tape is that that you use on the edges before straying please? I've never built anything like this befire but I'm half way there and now on the body work part!
Its a modelling masking tape, it comes in different widths and a special for going round curves, there are many brands but I prefer the actual Tamiya tape, its in the model shops or I guess on line.
