An overview of the Tamiya F104 Pro II chassis. A look at Tamiya's F1 Radio Control car. ( Please note - I incorrectly titled the in video caption ‘F104 Pro’. It is actually the ‘ Pro 2’ chassis )
Very nice, Dom! As you say it's a different world to the usual rally and touring cars we build. I'm very interested to see how it turns out and what you think of the driving experience! Have a smashing weekend, mate! 🤗👊👍🏼
Hey that was really interesting Dom. Very different to any Tamiya chassis I've seen before, especially the rear suspension. I'm just thinking about the state of most British car parks and wondering where you will be able to run this. Looks like it needs the smoothest track ever! Great stuff mate 😁👍👍
Great presentation Dom. This was most interesting to watch, and very well laid out. I've not seen one of these close up before, but it actually looks to be a superb piece of engineering. Love the design of the rear suspension. I would love one of these, but finding anywhere to run it around here would be impossible..... all the large flat supermarket car parks have drainage gulleys running through them, which is enough to flip a TTO2! I would also be very concerned about my driving, one hard front end impact could result in many tears by the looks of it! Looking forward to seeing the body progress, have you decided what livery to go with yet? 🤔 👍 👍 👍
it’s not quite as sensitive as you would think to the ground. i ran it on my street which is normal ish and it was fine . few scratches underneath but to be expected . anyway i’ll blast it somewhere and see what happens . just going tamiya livery it came with tbh mate. 😊👍
Very interesting, Dom! And this is definitely something different from you, I guess you need to find somewhere else to run this than the sand brawler... But before that, I'll be looking forward to see that sleek body get its nice paint job, very cool stuff!
Hey Dom, that’s a great looking chassis, perhaps feeling the RedBull bug again this years 😂😂😊😊looks like form the start of this years F1 season, we’re going to see another year of RB dominance?😊😊think I’ll tune into RC Dom for some variety 😂😊😂best wishes to you and the family 😊😊
@@rc-dom-uk No, I had a F103LM some years back. But your spurgear shouldn't do that wobble, its even audible that the meshing oscillates as you give it gas.
@@tm5123 ok thanks . i’ve double checked it and the nut which you tighten on this ball diff/ spur won’t go any tighter . then you have to release it a quarter turn . bit like a slipper . i’ve done that twice and with the same results . i can’t see anything else to do ?
@@rc-dom-uk Probably take the diff apart, check that the bearings are seated correctly, and also see that the socket thing is aligned well on the axle etc. If you just intend to mostly have it on the shelf tho, it probably doesn't matter that its a bit wonky. So invest time as you see useful. :)
