  • In Part 1 of this multi-part build series, we open up Bag A of our Tamiya Formula E TC-01 and get to building the lower front suspension arms. I know it doesn't seem like a huge step for a video, but it was surprisingly tricky - more than I expected.
    We start the video with some info on what tools you'll need, some hop ups that Tamiya provided with the build and the electronics and wheels/tires we selected to be using in the build.
    There was also a slight problem with our GoPro during the video. I didn't figure it out until after all the footage was shot - a corrupt SD card was the culprit. I tried to salvage what I could - I think it turned out ok.
    Enjoy the video.

    This is one of Tamiya's most complex kits. And are they using hex screws in this kit? People want them to use hex screws on there kits for now on.

      I would agree it is pretty complex. Unfortunately, we're still with the Phillips head hardware. There are, however, Ti and stainless hex screw set available for this kit already.

    Hi, I just received my kit in the mail. I'm surprised by how small the space is for the ESC. Have you confirmed that your Justock fits up there, and clears the servo link? Thanks!

      I’m wondering the same thing. It’s honestly what I’m most excited about this video series.

      As far as the footprint, yes, it fits fine. My next video (going up Monday) will show the ESC install.
      The only issue I had was the height - the fan hits the front upper top deck. I had to take it off for the complete install, but actually found another way to mount it (the fan) so it would still work. That will be in the 3rd video.
