  • A quick look at the Tamiya XV-01 chassis. One of my most used and favourite chassis which we have been running well over a year with various body sets. This is a quick guide aimed at the beginner as there are far more technical guides on the internet should you need a deeper look at this RC kit.
    I forgot to put the wheelbase in the video. It is 257mm like the tamiya TT01/02. However please bear in mind that front motor does not make it compatible with ALL 257mm wb bodies.

    I think this has been helpful. The issues I'm having with the little MJX Lancia is pushing me in this direction! A 1/10 scale version on this chassis would be 'problem solved' 😁👍

    Hi there Dom, a great summary of the XV-01 chassis. I’m looking forward to completing my XV-01 chassis build, hopefully getting it out in time for some slippery icy conditions for some running 😮. Test that front motor, belt driven, 4WD system. Great fun seeing you slinging int around 😊take care and best wishes to you and the family 😊😉😁

      @@rc-dom-uk Yeah, they hadn't improved so much when they released the VX-02 in the perormance. Mark and Rob compared both, I think so. I'm not so confirm withmhaving the motor and the main gears in the front chrash zone, but the weight distribution seems to be better. I have to admit that a converted CC-01 is in my planes, but I'm still suckig informations😉

    I would like more ground clearance on my XV-01. I noticed in your video you have the longer bottom shock mounts installed - did you have to cut out some of the chassis for the steering arms? Great video as always, cheers!

    • @rc-dom-uk
      @rc-dom-uk  Před rokem +1

      Thanks buddy. No cutting . Just added the long tie Rod ends to the shocks . No problems at all . I actually built it from day one this way as I needed clearance. You can also use the different holes to screw the bottom of the shocks in as well to increase clearance. This seems to me to all be within the tolerance of the kit . 😊👍

    • @GreenEyedScotty
      @GreenEyedScotty Před rokem +2

      @@rc-dom-uk After adding the long shock ends at full droop the edges of the steering rod ends were hitting the chassis. Had to trim them down and turn the right-side turnbuckle around so it didn't hit either. Also cut small grooves in the chassis and now everything moves freely. So much happier with the increased clearance and I don't feel the chassis is compromised in any way. Rally on!

      Cool . I have it stock . So stock tamiya 540 motor . Note : you will need longer wires to reach the esc with the XV01. Tamiya tbl02 esc . Kyosho synchro radio set . And finally a slim / short steering servo by savox . 👍
