I really like the way you showed the build in process with the close-up shots and highlighting those parts that warrant some special attention, great job!

I love the design of this chassis. Some very nice engineering in that & its good to see it goes as well as it looks.

Wicked! Looking forward to some speed runs!

Lack of space seems to be the trend on modern rc kits at the moment! I've built a few modern kits that are tight in the chassis area! Re-releases no problem? Excellent video👍

After watching this i too went out and searched for a decent priced one but couldn't get one for decent money around me but i have now one in the collection and was super chuffed at just over $350 Aud was more than pleased now for the build its in a long line of kits to build but somehow i can see this jumping the Que lol thanks for another great build and information packed video here Gavin, cheers from Melbourne :-)

Wow. That chassis completely blinged with blue anodised would be just 👌

That’s really good!

Definitely appreciate this video! Very informative.

Seems like the perfect chassis for the Spektrum S6240RX servo/receiver and Team Orion 2in1 motor/esc set up

He's wrong about the electronics guys and what can fit and what can go where. I just finished my build and I used the hobbywing 10BL60-sensord ESC AND Sensored motor and I switched sides so the ESC is on the right side and the receiver is on the left side. If you look at the car guys what's hitting the fan is 2 things the front diff cover and the steering arm. Do a moch up and u will see exactly what I am talking about. And I was able to keep my fan installed as a method of air circulation while the Body is on. I installed it above the receiver. But I will say that this has been the most pain stacking build ever it's no joke he's not kidding about it being a tight fit for the electronics. U Also have one other option it's the new Tamiya ESC that comes with the Subaru brat kit. Idk exactly how new but newer and it fits if u want a completely Tamiya set up. Anyway I just wanted to comment on the fact he is was wrong. It's a hobby build guys it's what we do figure stuff out.

OMG - That motor on 3S will run 60,000 rpm! Careful - not sure they’re meant to run over 50K. I know once it’s loaded (geared and turning the drive-train) it’s never gonna hit the unloaded max RPM, just bear it in mind...Might be safer running 2S - and don’t forget it’s only a 60A ESC (with no fan)... it’s gonna get hot - fast! Don’t wanna be a killjoy - I’m loving this!! Just don’t want to see you destroy it on its first full throttle run - tho god knows where you can find to really open it up! Looking forward to seeing the bodywork done!

I installed a Hobbywing XR10 Justock Spec ESC and a Spektrum 215 receiver. I had to swap them around and put the ESC on the right side and the receiver on the left. This allowed me to keep the ESC fan installed. Just a tip. Not planning to go higher than 2s on this car and running a Tazer 3300Kv brushless.

Nice

I’d wouldn’t mind one of these

I would like to pay attention to just how painful some of this was to build....I needed an extra arm at times however I love it.

looks like another one for the list

Nice she’s fast

FYI, 3652 is the motor diameter and length (36mm x 52mm).

I have never seen you use the esc that I use on my tight fitting rc builds. The Tekin RS Gen 3 has tons of programmability and the smallest footprint. About $130 but it’s always a solid solid esc. Give it a try.

Any slops need shiming?

I do like that chassis but i do think it's about time tamiya put some alloy as standard in their cars, especially the dampers. These days even cheaper low end cars have alloy shocks or adjustable tie rods and some bling on them..

I have figured out how to make more room. If you go to Amain’s website or whatever hobby store you use and purchase exoteks clamp on fan mount ring. Instead of putting a fan on the mount you can 3D print or use aluminum or any other material to mount a flat plate on top of the the motor and use it as an ESC mount or receiver mount that will place either of these two above the motor and free up a lot of space.

Do not flex the shims. Just lay them on a flat table side by side and eyeball it. Flexing them can lead to serious damage or bent shims which is no good for a decent built diff casing.

If this was an RTR and not a KIT, Traxxas would try to sue Tamiya to keep them from using Push-rod suspension on the car. They did it to Arrma and Vaterra. I believe it was some kind of Patent claim or injunction. Both of which are not possible given Traxxas did not originate the technology (first used in F1 and first used off-road in Desert racers) nor were they the first to use it in an RTR RC anything. Look up the Monogram Tornado, a very old RTR from the mid to late 1980s. Thing is Traxxas likely did it because they were protecting the Revo line of monster trucks. They literally would not survive any real, direct, competition. Worse is Traxxas, over time, literally rendered the Revo truck irrelevant with models like their own X-Maxx and 4wd Rustler. "Lawing away" the competition ultimately did Traxxas no good favors.

I cringe at those curbs...
