Video: Tamiya Formula E TC-01 Video Build – Part 1 | CompetitionX

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.
