Video: Tamiya Hotshot II Blockhead Motors Edition Buggy Online Build

We finally got the Tamiya Hotshot II Blockhead Motors Edition buggy on the workbench and built, bringing it to you in two full videos.

In this first one, we go over the tools needed followed by the front and rear gearbox, front and rear suspension and attaching the front and rear clips to the chassis.

As usual, this is a fun (and unique) build that you don’t want to miss!

Welcome back to Part 2 of our Tamiya Hotshot II Blockhead Motors Edition buggy build.

In this video, we wrap up the build with the electronics install, assembling the cage and final body prep as well as mounting the wheels and tires.

This was a super fun build! Stay tuned for the next video – the drive!!!

Enjoy the video!
