Looks like a good kit 👌 very good idea being multiple lengths and front or rear wheel drive 👍 Need Tamiya to re release the mini again and as for the paint, its a Tamiya, it's got to be box art hasn't it 🤔 Thanks for another great video boys 🤌
I really like the look of the MB-01 chassis, looks like a nice build and pretty easy to go from RWD to FWD. I can't wait to see the bodyshell finished, and also to see how well it drives ;)
Interesting to see the buildand the ease with changing from front to rear drive. May well get one to get back into M racing. For the colour There was a yellow Abarth TCR racing in USA during 60s and 70s, the yellow canary. And in the UK there was a well known one racing in french Blue. Abarth changed the way the factory cars were painted every year during the 60s but in the main they were the greyblue colour. Love the channel and your journey in R/C. 😊🥰😇
Not a massive Tamiya fan myself.. but things are about to change as I’ve just got myself a Tamiya Boomerang (first hobby grade rc car i got back in the day) so i plan a tribute build very soon… standard at first, then a silly brushless upgrade that i may live to regret…. I have plenty of time on my hands now as I’ve been diagnosed with a brain tumour of all things… 😩 looking forward to seeing what colour you paint it and to see how it performs on track!!😃 your videos are getting more and more polished, you 2 deserve all your subs and more, i know only too well how much time and effort it takes to put ideas into action!!! Well done guys 💪
Maybe box are but popalong colours? I love the way the car gives you options of RWD or FWD, and the different lengths opens up the cars shell choice to pretty much every m chassis shell released which is epic imo
As you intend putting a mini body on front wheel drive works well. From my personal point of view. For rear wheel drive I think the fiat 500 shell is great. When will they put out a Hillman Imp shell for rear wheel drive?
Cant wait to see this fiat R-bath, sounds like a clean build! :D I think the Fiat should look great in Popalong colors, tho, it is understandable to paint it in the official ones as well. :D
I really hope the MB platform at some point is released with an MX5 body. I never got to finding an M series chassis kit with the old MX body. Thanks for sharing the build sequence, interesting little build. Cheers!
The mx-5 body is still available at some places usually refered to by the japanese name "Eunos roadster" but i hope too they re-issue it again. same as the mini cooper. (tamiya needs to get that BMW license again....)
Excellent video, just bought one of these with Citroen DS body, haven’t yet gotten it. Will the battery tray only take a curved / rounded type battery?
Looks like it went together well 👊 as for the colour, I’ll throw yellow into the ring so it’s like Lupin III castle of cagliostro 😂 but if yellow is meh for you how about red and black instead of box art blue and white 🤷🏻♂️
If you want to go the rusty look as a reference to how cars of that era tended to go, then why not go for an even more scale look of having no shell at all because by now the entire car (and especially Fiat's) would have rotted away to nothing years ago!!
